today and randoms...
first... My AOL Horoscope for today...
Your view is obscured by something that may or may not be easily removed. If you can't see out of the windshield, and you can't clean off the dirt, you know better than to attempt to drive, right, Leo? There's nothing wrong with staying put for a while anyway, especially if you have loose ends to tie up in the immediate vicinity. Your creativity can be a big help when you're attempting to solve one of your problems, but try not to be overemotional when dealing with a friend or sibling. Try to keep in mind that some things -- especially personality-related conflicts -- can't be cleared up in one sitting.

there were these 4 people... and their cats...
Four people were bragging about how smart their cats are. The first was an Engineer, the second an Accountant, the third was a chemist, the fourth was a Government Worker.
To show off, The Engineer called to his cat, "T-square, do your stuff." T-Square pranced over to a desk, took out some paper and a pen and drew a circle, a square, and a triangle.
Everyone agreed that was a pretty smart cat, but the Accountant said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said, "Spreadsheet, do your stuff." Spreadsheet went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies each.
Everyone agreed that was really good, but the Chemist said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said, "Measure, do your stuff." Measure got up picked up a 500ml graduated cylinder, walked over to the fridge, took out a liter of milk, got a 300 ml glass from the cupboard, measured and poured exactly 275 ml of milk into the glass without spilling a drop.
Everyone agreed that was good too. Then the three men turned to the Government Worker and said, "What can your cat do?" The Government worker called to his cat and said, "Coffee Break, do your stuff." Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, pooped on the paper, screwed the other three cats, claimed he injured his back while doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions, put in for Workers comp, and went home on sick leave.

Japanese Toymaker Goes Meowlingual
Wed Jul 16,10:30 AM ET
TOKYO - After selling 300,000 pet-lovers on the Bowlingual gadget that supposedly translates a dog's bark into human language, a toymaker hopes to parlay that success into a new hit product: Meowlingual.
The cat-shaped machine set to go on sale in Japan in November translates meows and purrs into human phrases such as "I can't stand it," although exact wording hasn't been decided yet, Tokyo-based Takara Co. said Wednesday.
The translation device will likely sell for about $74, slightly cheaper than the $125 Bowlingual, which has been a big hit in Japan.
Both gadgets use scientific data on animal sounds from a Tokyo laboratory that also analyzes human voices, helps solve crime and takes part in designing software for mobile phones.
Takara plans to start selling Bowlingual in the United States in August. Overseas sales plans for Meowlingual are still undecided.
"Cats are smaller and more finicky than dogs so we had to change the design a little," Takara spokeswoman Maiko Hasumi said.
The feline version won't strap on the collar as does the Bowlingual, and a person must hold the microphone in the machine up to the cat's mouth and hope it says something, she said.
In case your cat's not in the mood, the machine will have "playful features," such as a horoscope reading for cat lovers, she said.

QUIZILAA IS MY BITCH! :-P
What kind of heart beats in you?
Empty Heart
You are a quiet and enclosed sort of person.
You tend to never open yourself up to others
and deal with your own life on your own terms
because you feel no one will understand your
lapses in and out of depression. You have
friends, but what lies beneath is not known to
them. You are still searching for an answer to
your existence, but that is still a
mystery.

Which Witch from The Craft Are You?
You're Bonnie, fire and feeling. Analysis: You've
been hurt in life, either physically or
mentally and it's really affected the way you
see yourself. Given half the chance, you could
really shine, but you'd probably let it go to
your head. Try not to be narcassistic and let
your inner depth lead you. You'll be much
better for it. Traits: strong, passionate,
angered easily, practical.

How do you deal with your depression?
Isolation. Just leave you alone. You can be found
in a dark place, rotting in your own self pity.
After all, no one else understands, right?
