"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Just eat a muffin whitey!

See, if the muffin was as savory as the "bagels" I like (I'm thinking Au Bon Pain's asiago cheese bagels), it wouldn't be a muffin anymore.

Please refer to the "not a muffeletta" discussion.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I skipped and got all confused that everyone was wishing Kat a happy birthday because I thought it was on Sunday. Then I remembered the b.org tradition of asking about everyone's weekend. Duh!

Happy birthday Kat! Now I want to make cupcakes.

ION, I read this exchange in way the wrong way:

tommyrot: An extra-bizarre case of "someone shoving something unnatural up his butt": [link]

Jesse: I had a "bagel" from Panera.

And now I really must apologize to Jesse for even thinking that. Sorry Jesse, my bad.

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

Anyone know of any friendly and natural(-ish) ways to discourage neighborhood cats from wandering through an unfenced back yard?

(I have no unreasonable illusions that someone's going to leap to my rescue here, but I figure the hivemind is a great compilation of interesting facts, so...what's the harm? :)

Some friends have moved into a rental with a great backyard, but now the neighborhood outdoor cats have started camping out there. Is there a scent or something that would discourage kitties, while not-bothering, say, birds?

Danke!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Motion sensor sprinklers. Cat comes into yard, water sprays, cat leaves. You;d have to fiddle with setting it up to make it not bother the birds, but I think you could manage it.

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

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.

That's very good news indeed.

And this was an amusing x-post:

tommyrot: An extra-bizarre case of "someone shoving something unnatural up his butt": [link]

Jesse: I had a "bagel" from Panera.

It amused me because I instantly thought, "Yeah, a Panera "bagel" would not be nearly firm enough..."
