Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Are cat owners really top dogs for brains?

It is a claim calculated to have rival pet lovers fighting like cat and dog.

According to a scientific study, cat owners tend to be cleverer than their dog-loving counterparts.

It found that university graduates were more likely to favour feline companionship - possibly because they work longer hours and have less time to go out for long walks.

Those with degrees were 36 per cent more likely to have a cat than others, including dog-lovers.

Re: sushi.

My pre-packaged sushi lunch--you get what you can in Utah--contains what it calls inari. I thought inari was a block of rice with fish on top, but this is a block of rice inside a thin, fried envelope of batter. It's a tasty vehicle for soy sauce, but I"m not sure it's inari.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We had pizza and salad for our appreciation lunch. Which mostly means I had pizza. And appreciation.

Lady, send me an email and tell me what server you ran your query against! I can't reconcile your results!

The pocket for inari is usually fried tofu.

mmm, tofu . . .

edit: now if they could just isolate the wasabi from the sushi better. I'm too much of a wimp for wasabi, though I laud it's sinus-clearing powers.

That's not sushi. That's state fair food.

There was no other way the road was going to get cleared. And considering the next storm is now 10-20" starts hysterically crying needed it gone now.
