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

Seagull Steals From Lazy Cat (video)

I love how the seagull checks out the cat first. "I'm totally gonna steal your food. You gonna do something about it? No? Good."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I can't tell if it's deliberately confusing or if they just can't afford a usability consultant.

It's sad when Facebook makes *LiveJournal* look benevolent and competent.

The reason that Facebook succeeded in the first place was that they made it a lot easier to control your privacy than MySpace, Friendster, et. al.

Now that they got big enough that those other sites don't matter, they did a 180°.

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

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Thanks Amy. Just kind of in that "Huh" state right now.

Seagull Steals From Lazy Cat

I love how the seagull checks out the cat first. "I'm totally gonna steal your food. You gonna do something about it? No? Good."

The cat almost seems to be going "Go ahead - it's the dog's food."

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh, Theresa, I am so sorry. That's a sucky speech. And as a speech teacher, I can say that with authority.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Theresa, that is of the suck.

I hope JZ is ok and her work sitch is not too traumatizing.

I need help for lamb chops. As in, how to prepare them.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am sorry, Theresa! If you had put in for FMLA already, though, I think it may be illegal for them to lay you off now.
