"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

We have YouTube evidence that a Killer Whale bitch slaps and kills a Great White Shark with minimal effort.

Didn't the shark tagging biologists find out that a killer whale offing a shark also made all the other sharks for dozens of miles around suddenly remember that they left the oven on at home and swim doubletime for a few days without rest to turn it off?

I had an incident of the invisible-next-to-attractive-friend thing today, as two different girls came to chat up Smoking Hot Bartender while blithely ignoring my existence and the fact that we'd been in mid-conversation. But there are benefits as well as drawbacks, since my gaydar accuracy increases to approximately 100% when in the company of such a friend—I just have to watch other guys' reactions to him.

mac is doing animal wars and wants to know what can beat a whale?

Well, baby whales can get eaten by a shark. But generally the answer is humans to that question. I all nerve-jangly right now. Overtired i'd guess.

I've had Jump in the Line as an earworm for a good two weeks.

Is this my doing?

Awake, and Tom has no coffee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Poor up-early Lee!

I am such a nerd. I finally gave in and subscribed to the NYTimes crossword puzzle online last night, and I've since done M-F of last week, and also most of today's Sunday puzzle.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Crosswords make me feel stoopid. I can't finish a third of the Monday puzzle.

I sent Lee off on her own to obtain coffee. I'm not sure that was a good idea.

I figure if I'm going to tell people I'm in training to be a competitive crossword... doer (which I have, recently), I'd better step it up! I don't think it's a matter of smartness, just a certain kind of skill and knowledge.

I survived! and now I have coffee.

I never got into crosswords, because it was always my mom and sister's thing.

WRT to crosswords,

I have never gotten into them before, but now that I spend 3 - 4 hours a day attached to a breast pump, I do crosswords online like mad. I am not smart enough to do the grownup ones, so instead I do the NYT childsized ones online because they are free and I am able to finish.

At this point, I've done them in order down to the Science group (I'm on Electricity and Magnetism). But online is so much easier than pencil and paper.
