Bwah - ok, I shouldn't laugh, but CBS' photo for this plague story cracks me up:
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

Somehow "plague squirrels" cracks me up. Band name?
Seeing posts from my friends this weekend and today at the various march commemorations. It's cool, but I wonder if I would have gone, 50 years ago. Will there be stuff 50 years from now that I'll be all "oh man that was historic, wish I'd been there"? Occupy doesn't seem like it. Obama's first inauguration, I do wish.

Continuous exposure to news feeds can be very stressful. When I worked at the news clipping agency I started keeping track of how many violent deaths I heard about in a year, then stopped when it passed a thousand in the first two weeks.
But I do miss being so up to date on world affairs.

As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.
I love you, you Nubian, but of course you already know that.
