Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

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

Birthday Happies, P-C!

Headline o' the day:

Possible AIDS cure linked to glow-in-the-dark cats

The technique is called gamete-targeted lentiviral transgenesis -- essentially, inserting genes into feline oocytes (eggs) before sperm fertilization. Succeeding with it for the first time in a carnivore, the team inserted a gene for a rhesus macaque restriction factor known to block cell infection by FIV, as well as a jellyfish gene for tracking purposes. The latter makes the offspring cats glow green.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I saw that! It's ultra-cool science, even aside from the fact that you could use kitteh as a night light.

One more car insurance question - Geico is less than half the price of Progressive. (Those are the only two I've checked so far because they have really easy to use online quote systems.) Is this because Geico is really shitty or because Progressive is really expensive? Anyone have an insurance company they love?

I think Geico is pretty good. Only had one minor accident with them--they handled it OK.

Not sure why car insurance prices vary so much. I think companies just use different criteria, with different weights.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

If you can bundle your car insurance with homeowners or whatever else you might have that can usually save you some. I've had really good experiences with State Farm in CA, but not in LA so I'm hesitant to make recommendations across state lines as state regulations can make for huge differences. Warren Buffett likes Geico, fwtw.

Oh that's a good idea. We have USAA for our homeowners insurance, and they're really good.

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

Oh yes Jess, use them. I often get a check back from them on car because their pool is so safe. Me, nsm, so being in that pool helps.
