So much for reading books I already own. Sigh.

Amy, we're starting that in January. Knock yourself out. I should warn you that the book is 700+ pages. Between that, Wolf Hall, and War and Peace, I have about 2500 pages to read this month.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

DJ, "arguing with goat" made me laugh so hard I couldn't see! Just what I needed this morning; thanks!

Because books.

megan, I saw Wolf Hall is out in paperback now! I'm such a goner, man. Totally buying that, too.

I'm writing this from beyond the grave, by the way, because I am DED FROM TEH CUTE NOW.

Arguing with a goat

I found the goats arguments to be very persuasive, well-sourced and logically thought out. I'd like to subscribe to goat's newsletter.

I'm pretty sure this is how last year's collegiate debate competition was decided.

From upthread:

I think the cats are feeling the cooler temps. Me, I just put on long pants and a fleece. Them, they're rolling into tighter balls and burrowing further into the covers or me.

This was my place this weekend. I was too stubborn to turn on the heat, so my cat just got as close to me as possible and balled up. When I finally caved and put on the heat last night, she was on top of her condo ASAP.

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

How Smokers Think about Death

Do graphic warning labels on cigarette packages really deter people from lighting up?

Maybe the opposite.

Students who were heavy smokers reacted to thoughts of death by taking even harder drags on their cigarettes.

Oh well.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Someone nearby was using their fireplace last night which I think is going a wee overboard, it was only in the 50s.

Target run this morning, yep over $100, but it was three bags worth of stuff including 5 new pieces of clothing for mr. won't stop growing, now in size 12/14 pants.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

We turned the heat on yesterday, and within half an hour, got this: [link]
