What's with the Paparazzi?
Nah, it's Jay's game. This Seth twerp writes like he's about 19, and if there's a version of this story that qualifies as "lazy," it's clearly his. His style actually reminds me of a certain cretin, recently ejected from this locale. As for the other one (who apparently thinks he's a comic book character), I find it "ironic" that he doesn't even know the difference between "it's" and "its," yet feels free to lecture other folks about their writing. The unfortunate part is, neither one of them is even the least bit entertaining. http://www.spooncraft.com/wp-content/uploads/2009…— February 24, 2010 11:12 p.m.

Mongoose?! Aren't you the one who wouldn't watch the cobra/mongoose video? The mongoose wins, ya know. :) He's cute, Cuddle. Love those white pawsies.— February 24, 2010 10:20 p.m.
Tundra # 6
Well, what would you have them do, Grant? Keep poor Tundra indoors? Tundra himself decided he was tired of that. I think I would have employed the supersoaker for quite a bit longer, personally. I'd have soaked that little bully every time he set a paw in the yard, for MONTHS if necessary. My next option would be to look into an electric fence -- just an electrified wire to string along the top of the existing fencing, keeping Mushroom OUT and Tundra IN. Not sure how practical that is, having never done it.— February 24, 2010 10:17 p.m.

Tundra # 6
Um, let me make a recommendation to you right now: Insure Tundra. Sooner or later, he's going to require a visit to the Kitty Eye Doctor, and the Kitty Eye Doctor likes to get PAID. The KED evidently has some big bills. So will you. And, oh yeah, GO TUNDRA!!! ;)— February 24, 2010 8:06 p.m.

The Color and the Fast Notes
“A coloratura is therefore a soprano who deals with these sorts of passages but also generally has a higher range than most sopranos, which extends as high as an F above high C. Most other types of sopranos will have high C as the highest in their performed repertoire.” What? I've never heard any such thing. Soprano, mezzo soprano and contralto refer to range. Coloratura refers to flexibility. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDE_eMvoKxQ *chills*— February 24, 2010 7:40 p.m.

R.I.P. Porn Biz (and good riddance!)
"The reason porn has become unprofitable isn't necessarily because of its free proliferation on the internet." I think that's absolutely the reason. Every time I deliver a Playboy or other plain-wrappered mag, I think, "Jeez, hasn't this old geezer heard of the internet?" "Sex can finally go back to being just that - sex. Not porn." That'd be nice. Like she said: http://www.sandiegoreader.com/weblogs/antigeekess… The t-shirt I ended up buying? http://mlnp.spreadshirt.com/mlnp-way-sex-is-women… Yeah, I wimped out on buying the one with the words "anal sex" on it. Doesn't seem to matter, however. I notice that people (men) only seem to see the words "Porn" and "Sex" anyway, based on their excessive grinning reactions and OTT friendliness in the presence of said shirt.
