Right now, it's happening. Damn, hope I don't miss the kinetic race!
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
JZ, it cracks me up that they were coming to see Measure For Measure. Sex, politics, and religion! It'd be perfect if the guy was an alderman or something. The guy and his girlfriend actually stayed for the show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A surprisingly thoughtful piece from Russell Brand

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Scale: tiger, lion, cougar, jaguar, leopard, cheetah, all those littlies like ocelots and caraculs? Is that how it goes?
Almost; jaguars are larger than cougars. I would also be inclined to find room for snow leopards and possibly clouded leopards.

Wait, there are feral bison in San Francisco??? What??? I knew there were parrots.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Wow, jaguars are bigger than I thought. And how could I forget snow leopards--they're my favorite!--and clouded leopards. Lynxes are smaller, right? In the littlies category with bobtails and such?

Lynxes are indeed smaller (the bobcat is itself a species of lynx), though the Eurasian lynx is larger than the clouded leopard. There's a list of cat species by size here: [link]

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Hiya, cliomusing!
What a beautiful cat. The largest wildlife I see regularly are deer. Although as I often see them in my apartment's parking lot, I don't know that they exactly put the wild into wildlife. There are rumors of coyotes in the area, but I've never seen one.
NC is in full bloom, with the red bud and dogwoods all in flower. It's a lovely time of year here.
