I was at Borders tonight and saw a Bunnyzilla collection in the sale area. Jilli knows about this, yes? I figure she must, but thought I'd check.
Wha-ha-ha? Nope, never heard of Bunnyzilla. Bunnicula, yes (Bunnies! Vampire bunnies!), but Bunnyzilla, no.

A Puppy Poo forsaken at the corner of an alley. Everyone avoids it saying "Dirty Poo!" One drizzing spring day, Puppy Poo meets a young dandelion plant who needs fertilization. Puppy Poo joyfully breaks itself down and soaks into the root of dandelion. This self-sacrifice finally blooms a dandelion bud into its full glory. A moving and lessonful story illustrated by Sung-gak Chong.
Now this is a tender and moving story.
I think I know what's causing your migraines, Betsy. The interpipe itself is hurting your head.
The student newspaper at my university recently published the results of their annual writing competition. One of the poetry entries was admittedly made up of words picked at random from the dictionary. Is this poetry? Truly, my 2-year-old niece could have done this! (if I had one that is)
Huh. Well I guess somebody liked the sound or something.
Is this poetry?
