You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

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

Patrick Kennedy back on the booze is a tragic setback

A sad story from Washington as Congressman Patrick Kennedy was seen drinking heavily in a bar after accepting an award for his battle against substance abuse.

Roll Call newspaper reported that at 11. p.m on Tuesday Kennedy was seen entering the bar , the Capitol Lounge and taking a seat at the counter.

In the space of a few minutes Kennedy downed six vodka shots and only stopped when the bartender refused to serve him

Earlier in the night, Kennedy had received an award for his work on addiction issues at the annual fundraising dinner for N Street Village, a local charity that helps low-income women battle homelessness and drug addiction.

Tino is a human-animal hybrid.

Coding and Sleeping

The Arizona state Senate on Thursday passed a bill making it illegal for a person to “intentionally or knowingly creating a human-animal hybrid.”

I would have some concern this might make it illegal to do some research with say splicing in a human gene into a mouse embryo. But the other stuff makes it sound like that isn't what they are targeting. Which, okay, don't know that it's really an issue, but I can't say I have any objection.

Sure, that's what you say now, but wait until you realize your world-domination plans will depend on having an army of hybrid human/emperor penguin stormtroopers....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Would it count as a human animal hybrid if I just had them splice in a prehensile tail?

Also, would that be forbidden under the Arizona law?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

“intentionally or knowingly creating a human-animal hybrid.”

But accidentally making one is ok? Good to know.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

No prehensile tail. It's hard enough to keep up with all the ragged hems and shed buttons; I'm not altering all your pants.

Also, check your email in a couple minutes, please.
