But competition, because Amurrica!

A Klingon surgeon. Now there's an image the ST franchise needs to make use of.

A Norwegian Blue, was it?

Yeah, for Fluff Butt I think one of the important things in his life is "shoulder surfing", riding around while across the shoulders and taking in the sights from that height. And in the family, only my shoulders are broad enough for him to do that comfortably (for him).

Funny ... I have trouble taking a nonfiction book seriously if it's much under 300 pages.

Well, yeah. 40 pages plus of footnotes are essential.

And is without footnotes. Footnotes are essential.

Most common antibiotic for me has been Augmentin, but I haven't had any for four years now. (apparently, past conscious)

I did a random act of kindness before Christmas. One of the artists I patronise on the deviantart website had a traumatic time after the super typhoon, so I gave them a premium membership as the one they had had run out. They lost quite a bit but were still alive and well and trying to get some semblence of normality back. They have since logged back onto the site and thanked me for it which is nice.

Maybe this will help

The Men's Human Rights Movements have drawn some very wounded, very bitter, and even some hateful individuals. Of course, Feminist movements have done the same for decades (Feel free to Youtube some of "Girl Writes What?"'s videos...even if you don't agree with her she makes you think). That doesn't excuse deliberate sabatogue of the reporting system. If they worry the reporting system could be abused, then there were better ways. It kind of reminds me of the recent Men's Human Rights Posters torn down in Vancouver by feminists. We need calm discourse, not destruction and censorship.
 
Both sides need to disassociate themselves from their extremists as best they can, but just like I can't keep the Westboro scumballs from calling themselves "christian" you're not going to be able to stop some truly damaged or even outright mean people from declaring themselves Feminsts or Men's Rights Activists. Indeed, both groups often seem to cover for their members. I still remember excuses being made for the Vagina monologue's "good rape" comments by some who delcared themselves feminists.
 
It's hard, but we need to judge the issues, not just the people championing them.
 
EDIT: And , as always, we have to avoid 'Broad Brush' syndrome

Today, some homophobic bastard called me one of Satan's Patriarchs, because I didn't agree that homosexuality was a sin.
 
I took that as high praise and a sincere compliment.
 
Edit:
Holy crud, I'm almost up to 100 Twitter followers.  I feel famous!

Funny, that's what MY List of Things To Do Tomorrow has on it.

Looks like.

The kind of suspects that get the question "What is your name?" right on the third try?

Exactly one month from now the date will be 13-13-13. 

Yar Yar Yar...Merry Plundering!

And will be getting my flu shot tomorrow.  My wife is an at-risk, so better to keep up with at least denying the common flu a hold.

I love Julio's parting line

I love seeing all your smiling faces again.  Missed you guys.  

Don't think it would survive shipping very well, but check out the book "Flour, Water, Salt, Yeast".  It's pretty much what I use and it's easy.
 
And I don't want to open a bakery cause that usually entails waking up early.    I don't think I'll be doing more than a dozen loafs per week.

Sold my first couple loafs of bread today.  Complete side business by accident, but mainly because we don't have a real bakery in town.
