I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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

I just toss the whole banana in the freezer, and when I have time to bake I toss three of them in the microwave. It looks nasty, but once you bake it it's delicious.

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

Huh. My calendar tells me that Canada Day is observed in Canada. Never would have guessed that.

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!

Boulder Police Seeking Mischievous Leprechaun

BOULDER, Colo. — Police responding to reports of a man leaping between cars in a Colorado supermarket parking lot didn't need a detailed description of the suspect.

Boulder Police Sgt. Fred Gerhardt says witnesses on Wednesday reported a man was dressed as a leprechaun and pretending to shoot at people with his fingers.

Witnesses told police the man may have made obscene gestures.

Gerhardt says they likely called police because the man "was acting bizarre."

Officers did not find anyone matching the description of the leprechaun.

Gerhardt says this is the first time Boulder police have received a complaint about a leprechaun.

Sugar Information explains how sugar won't make you fat

The good folks at Sugar Information want you to know the facts: Sugar is GOOD FOOD! After all, if sugar was bad for you, then all those kids who eat all that sugar would be getting obese! That'll never happen.

If sugar is fattening, how come so many kids are thin?

That they're admitting to, anyway. Beware the tiny green conspiracy!
