It might. I'll stop in at Walgreen's on my way home and see what they've got.

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

There was another bank robbery here in Highland Park this morning. I walked past the bank just after the cops arrived--I missed running into the robber by a few minutes.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

According to my research, chickens are legal in Cincinnati as long as they keep quiet and don't smell bad:

I will forward that link to the people on my neighborhood e-mail list, because it has been flying fast and furious for the past couple of months with chicken-related legal problems. They claim there is an ordinance that stipulates a minimum size of yard and that chickens are "for agriculture use only" (I guess that means back yards aren't to be used for agriculture? perhaps it's time to xeriscape?).

So maybe that link will help them. I honestly don't know what "ordinance" they mean, because I haven't looked into it, what with not owning or wanting to own chickens. But if my neighbors can keep their chickens, that would be cool.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

At one point my next door neighbors had a chicken ... a rooster, to be exact. I think it became dinner one night. Of course, these same neighbors had four children - and the chicken - in a one-bedroom apartment.

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

That's a problem in any world.

Many worlds would be more likely to eat or ignore the cat than have it on their shoulder.

Today is Wear Bodily Fluids day. Okay, it's not. It's Clutch Your Pearls day.

I wanna cage fight a pre-teen. Let me read that article.

Then they need to give you a raise. If no one else can/will work with her, you need hazard pay.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

An astounding number of my friends suddenly have chickens.

But I live in rural Arizona, so...
