Yeah, I seem to recall that this is some sort of brain filtering, reducing the signal-to-noise ratio. I should look it up. The same thing works with audio, and even with touch. Adapting to light levels is a mechanical process.

I've always read that consuming carnivores is not a good idea nutritionally. You're not even supposed to put carnivore poop in your compost. But omnivores, like bears, turtles, and ducks, aren't so bad.

I missed the opportunity for a great pun. A commenter on my personal site said if she had refused, it would have been "a CAT-ASS-trophe!"

I really need to add that; we've covered it so many times I didn't even realize I hadn't put the country!

The Tweet refers to the "dark side of the moon." There is no dark side, as the moon exposes all its surface to the sun over time. It should be "far side," meaning the side that is always turned away from the earth.

I started giving my kids an allowance at around age 7, and they had been helping with housework for years by then. I don't get paid for cleaning up, why should they? Now they are adults, and they still help me clean up. And they handle their own money pretty well.

Let's be honest, the quote about a tree growing out of her body smells like it was made up after the fact to make a good story. Still, just the condition of her grave is interesting enough to pass along.
