Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Yeah, well I still think it's mean. Poor kid. HE didn't get divorced.

Poor kid. HE didn't get divorced.

God, I know. My parents were separated/divorced when I was as old as Dylan is, and I so feel for him and what he's going through. (His siblings, too, of course, but I relate with him due to the age.)

The good thing is that I think that Dylan won't suffer from my biggest loss in my parents' divorce, which was my close relationship with my father. I might have lost that as I entered adolescence, anyway, but the timing of him moving out of the house guaranteed that we grew apart. Dylan is always coming over here and hanging with my brother (last night, they went to the Phillies game and he slept here afterwards)--he loves coming here and seeing both his dad and grandma.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Female Cats Are Right-Pawed, Males Are Lefties

July 23, 2009 -- Female domestic cats tend to preferentially use their right front paw while male cats more often rely upon their left front paw, according to a new study that suggests the sex of a cat determines how its brain will be wired.

The findings also add to a growing body of evidence that male animals tend to be left-handed, or in this case left-pawed, more often than females. While 90 percent of all humans are right-handed, of the remaining southpaws, more tend to be men.

The differences are even clearer among cats.

"Our results suggest that there are two distinct populations of paw preference in the cat that cluster very strongly around the animals' sex," Deborah Wells, who led the study, told Discovery News.
