Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

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

An awesome painting:

Chewbacca Fighting Nazis While Riding a Giant Squirrel

The specific details in this painting by deviantART user gamefan84 were actually commissioned. Which is awesome!

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

I walk my cat on a leash daily, when weather allows. It helps that my apartment complex is in a bit of a cul-de-sac, surrounded by lawn, shrubs, trees, and a couple of ditches. (Few dog worries.) I guess the cat has to want to be out and about badly enough to put up with the leash. It took a few sessions before Leifur was comfortable with the leash and harness. While he doesn't like the process of getting hooked up, he's pretty happy to amble along once everything's fastened. He climbs small trees, chases--for 6 feet--birds and bunnies, and has a fine ol' time exploring the apartment complex grounds.

Is today still Tuesday? It feels like it should be at least Thursday.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I saw a little girl walking behind Pacey wearing a long pink dress, a pink boa, and a pink Darth Vader helmet. Very cute.

We once had a cat we tried putting on a leash so she could go out - she WANTED OUT in the worst possible way, but had no sense of direction. I put her in her little harness, clipped on the leash, then tied one end of a rope to the leash handle and the other end to the porch railing. In about five minutes she'd wound the rope and leash around various pieces of lawn furniture and bushes and ended up pinned upright against (if I remember correctly) the rosemary bush, with no idea how to get unwound. I unwound her, she did it again. Not one of the better ideas.

I don't know if this has been posted, but the initial (not definitive) results of the Kepler mission apparently indicates the galaxy is filled with earth-sized planets.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Good thing, 'cause this one's almost used up...
