If you should happen to see me chasing my enormous cat about screaming something about tennis rackets, you should know that the damned little beast, not content with chewing on plastic bags like...an animal which really shouldn't be doing such a thing, but has also chewed the power cord to my laptop, which is now mangled beyond all recognition ( Read more... )

1. Does anyone know anyone who does custom "mods" of action figures?

2. How about sources for poppies or the psychoactive variety of salvia, for planting in our backyard garden? For those wondering, I don't indulge in such psychoactives myself, and have no plans to...however, I am aware of the reasons for doing so and wish to cultivate such ( Read more... )

They're included for the reasons they're included in Western action stories - they're ( Read more... )

• An Indians-Rockies World Series makes baby Jesus cry. (A Red Sox-Rockies World Series is, if anything, worse, and this whole thing should convince sportswriters, if they had a lick of sense, to get rid of the wildcard once and for all - which is to say, they will continue to trumpet the wildcard as if it was baseball's saving grace, and will keep ( Read more... )
