Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Wow, Connie- that seems like it is from much earlier in time. And I now have "Ladies who Lunch" stuck in my head.

Wipers replaced. Last time I did this, it was a torturous replacement of just the blades and I suffered for it. Now, all I can get in AutoZone is the full blade contraption. And they offered to put them on. And it was bloody easy. Live and learn. Still gave the guy a couple bucks since the dude before did too, and it's freaking cold out. My hands got numb just washing my windown.

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

Shitloads of cute!

Baby Bats Rescued After Being Orphaned By Australian Flood (VIDEO)

130 baby bats orphaned by a flood off the Gold Coast of Australia were saved by the Australian Bat Clinic and Wildlife Trauma Centre in the past weeks.

...

Watch the following video, in which NBC's Nightly News displays photographs of the cute little creatures. After all, Brian Williams points out, "When was the last time you saw baby bats wrapped in tiny blankets?"

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Heh. That leads me to think about how I use the word "ladies": I call my students ladies and gentlemen, and I will say "a nice lady asked me to..."

When I am sending out emails to my group of girlfriends, I either say "Hey, ladies!" or "Hello, my bitches!"

I guess I use lady/ladies when addressing people, and woman/women when describing something in a more general way, i.e. "it's important for today's women to have blahdeblah."

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Guess what? I weighed myself this morning on my scale that, up until today, wasn't able to show my weight because I was over its limit. Well, I got a number instead of an error message! I'm down to 405 pounds, which is 75 pounds since mid-October.

I'm 25% of the way to my goal weight!!!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yay Kathy!
