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

The airship emerged from jagged peaks, its body swollen with gas

Earlier this year, the Nucleus Gallery in California had a stunning exhibition called "Lift Off: The Art of Airships." Here are some of our favorite images of zeppelins and other fantastical aircraft from the show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Unlike bacon, not good.

I'm eavesdropping on a conversation where a guy is trying to work out if he's ever heard of Cameo. Same guy has never been on IMDB. My mind can't wrap itself around the idea of this guy being in my generation, but he is.

Sorry, but what is Cameo?

Yeah. Skittle Vodka sounds better.

Infusing vodka with Skittles is a very popular trend right now. There are a couple of different ways to do it. My way involves separating all the Skittles into their separate flavors and making five different bottles of Skittles vodka.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Word Up? Candy? Back and Forth? Larry Blackmon?

Kusadasi

I was trying to figure out why the name was so familiar and why I knew how to pronounce when I finally recalled that I've, you know, BEEN THERE.

How not awake am I? Very much amounts of not.

Ad: Health care is 'slavery'

In his latest ad, the tea party candidate is speaking with a revived Abraham Lincoln. “Hey Abe,” Barbers says, “if someone is forced to work for months to pay taxes so that a total stranger can get a free meal, medical procedure or a bailout, what's that called?”

Before Lincoln answers, Barber cuts in to ask: “What's it called when one man is forced to work for another?”

“Slavery,” Lincoln says.

As Lincoln's words echo, the ad shows images of enslaved African-Americans prior to the Civil War and well as the front gates of Auschwitz, the Nazi concentration camp where Jews and other persecuted Europeans were greeted by a sign reading “work makes free.”

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I like Absolut's City series. They have interesting flavor combos. New Orleans- mango & black pepper, Boston- black tea & elderflower, Los Angeles-blueberry, acai berry, acerola cherry and pomegranate, and Brooklyn- red apple & ginger.
