We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Abby's more my type

Mine, too.

msbelle, how about I talk about my work ethic, or lack thereof? Done today so far: fed animals (mine and Nora/Tom's), walked Frankie, scooped pans, put away dishes and washed breakfast dishes, put away some clothes, rigged up a way to hang a hand towel in the bathroom. For the rest of the day, the plan is to get my resume down to one page (dammit) and send it out for a carpentry job, and send the longer one out via two friends to an org I'm trying to get in with. I will alternate 15 minute chunks of that with making phone calls and unpacking boxes - now that I have a roommate, unpacking has become much more urgent.

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

Video: Incredible Piloting Skills After Midair Collision

Two pilots managed to avoid serious injury after a mid-air collision at an airshow in England. One landed his damaged airplane without incident, but the other had to bail out of his World War II fighter, deploying his parachute seconds before hitting the ground.

The accident occurred after three planes flew in formation at the Flying Legends Airshow near Duxford. As the pilots broke formation, the right wingtip of a 1950s era Douglas A-1 Skyraider, clipped the belly of a 1940s era North American P-51 Mustang.

The Skyraider lost much of its right wing tip but landed without further damage. As can be seen in the video above from David Taylor of FlyingFilm, the P-51 was violently tossed around by the collision, which hit the fighter just behind its iconic belly scoop/radiator. The pilot momentarily regained control before bailing out.

Is this your first time in London, shrift? Do you have tickets to plays?

It's my first time, yes, and I haven't been overseas in so long that I've forgotten how to do it.

I have tickets to see Much Ado About Nothing and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. I may try to get a day ticket to Pygmalion if I have time.
