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.
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

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:

Jesse: I had a "bagel" from Panera.
And now I really must apologize to Jesse for even thinking that. Sorry Jesse, my bad.

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!

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.

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:

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

SH, here are some homemade cat repellant ideas.
I know someone who had great success with vigilant use of a supersoaker out an open window. No harm to the animals but took a little time.
