I hate PBS. They are airing the last of the Inspector Lynley mysteries now. When I need to go to bed. Bastards.
Whoa. Good myth.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Allyson, Gerald Durrell had a description of his encounters with vampire bats in one of his books. I thought it was in The Drunken Forest, but Wikipedia says it was The Whispering Land.
I don't currently have copies of those, but your library might.

The conclusion I've come to WRT to the scoring is that it's become like some of ice skating in that you get scored on your reputation, not the actual performance, which is total BS.

In women's gymnastics, if you land inside the lines then step out, it's not considered out of bounds. Also, the vault score is the combination of both, so if you do a kick-ass one and blow the second, you could still do well.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I've got about 5-6 automated calls today for Miguel Sanchez warning about possible fraud on his Visa card. What exactly do I have to do to make these calls stop?
Tom, we had a scam going on in town here--a batch of phone numbers (my mobile included) were getting "fraud" calls about debit cards being cancelled. Turns out they were bogus and fishing for info--some people called the numbers back and got taken--the cash was taken out in Eastern Europe. Report the calls to your provider and to Visa.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Hivemind: Since DH has been placed as director of marketing in his last promotion he would like to know what people think of a keychain tag with your car insurance info on it or possibly with the phone numbers to call in case of an accident.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Chuck Woolery is set to host "The Meow Mix Game Show," a cat-centered competition that will air on GSN on Nov. 15.
The half-hour program, in which cats and humans compete for the chance to win $1 million and earn $100,000 for their local feline-related charity, will put a twist on classic game shows like "The Newlywed Game" and "Jeopardy!"
Owners will be quizzed on general feline knowledge, covering such categories as nutrition, behavior, anatomy and the role of cats in pop culture, as well as interactive challenges where cats and humans must work together to be successful.

Is there swelling, aurelia? If there is swelling, then ice. Otherwise, heat.
And ibuprofen if you can take it. Up to 800mg, every 8 hours (esp if you have swelling).
So, I have a poll in my LJ about leaving kids alone. This was in the NYT and was interesting. But if you wanna answer, you can here: [link]
