My boy's a Maine Coon and they're not large as much as they are long and thin -- with a ton of fluffy fur. His pewps aren't any bigger than any other cat's litter bombs. He's ridiculously affectionate, too. Everytime I sit down at the puter, he jumps up and starts in with the PePe LePew treatment.

LOL That reminds me of "pencil drills" from broadcasting school. With the pencil as far back in your teeth as you can, enunciate the alphabet as clearly as you can. After a couple rounds, you'll be so articulate people will nominate you for office.

I have a collection of Bill Mauldin's comics, and as a veteran (1983-1996), they're still right on the money and just as topical today as when he first drew them.

Seriously, smokers have known this for decades. You have an itchy, nagging problem? Get out of the office, go outside and walk around for 15 minutes. Brainstorm it. Return to work and conquer the problem.

I doubt a boss would tolerate "But playing Civ IV for 6 hours a day makes me really productive for the last 2 hours!"

Includes the add-on extension for the midnight to 6am shift:
"Wow, you're really brave for staying with your drunken, abusive spouse."
"So you really don't have anybody else in your life to talk to except me?"
"Do you need me to call 911? I'm calling 911."
"No thanks. I'm married. To a cop. Who's a bodybuilder. And has a huge gun collection. That's guarded by our bloodthirsty Pit Bull."

/Did radio in San Antonio for 15 years. This story just shows how cheap station owners are. Feh.

I think that "enforce morality" thing is basically code for "we should make it legal to get high on marijuana." Nobody wants people who commit violent crimes against other people to run free in the streets.

Corporal punishment, like the death penalty, is barbaric and doesn't do a thing to reduce crime. Remember that "boot camp for juvenile offenders" thing that was so popular years ago? TV viewers loved watching the punks cry while being yelled at by a "drill sergeant" but the camps did nothing to reduce recidivism.

A little less glorification of "thug life" in our society would go a lot farther.

Best present I ever got is/was an 8-cup French Press. Want flavored coffee? Add something to the grounds before you brew it, even if you're using a drip coffee maker. A wee splash of vanilla extract, a 1/4 tsp of Hershey's cocoa, grated nuts, a pinch of coconut, cinnamon, whatever. There's no reason for a good cup of joe to be that expensive.
