Enough to demand that a referendum not be allowed on the ballot because the petitions allegedly had the wrong font size. Never mind that the printer who made the petitions testified that it was indeed the right size.

Due to allergy issues, we're having to move, and need a new space to live. Must have at least 3 bedrooms, allow cats and dogs, be accessible by bus line, and be in the East High School attendance area. Houses are preferred over apartments, and a yard for critters and/or gardening is also a plus.

When I first met Buddy, he was more timid than he is now, but he also got underfoot more often too. As a result, accidental kickings were very common, which always resulted in a horribly betrayed look on his face, which took minutes upon minutes of scritching and reassurances that we were not like his original humans to erase from it. Nowadays, he's less shy, gets in the way slightly less, and accidental boots-to-the-head result in confusion instead of despair. Progress!
Duchess is a whole other idiot. To the best of our knowledge, she was never in an abusive home, so she never learned to fear her two-legged packmates. Yet she gets underfoot more than Buddy at his clingiest ever did. So how does she react? With prancing and tail-wagging JOY! She interprets pretty much any physical contact as an attempt at play, so she just assumes a foot that sends her skidding across the floor was clumsy eagerness rather than malice. Silly little sausage. :-)

Did this idiot not get the "We are here to protect Freedom, not practice it!" speech in Boot Camp? Because that's the only excuse for his actions that doesn't require that he either be an idiot or an attention whore. And I somehow think that if _I_ had been as vocal about my opinions regarding Bush Jr. as this guy was about Obama, the wingnuts who are defending him would have just as loudly claimed that I deserved whatever punishment came my way. Except in that case, they'd actually be right. The military in not like civilian life, where the worst that usually happens when you insult management is a few hurt feelings and some lost productivity. On the battlefield, good order and discipline is literally a matter of life and death. This is why I kept my opinions to my own damn self, shut up, and did my job. Pity this Marine can't say the same.

I do not care if the perpetrator of the latest massacre in Afghanistan had had a brain injury. I do not care if he was drunk, or had PTSD, or even if his dog died at the World Trade Center. He needs to DIE, after a fair trial of course.

Such artistically talented "friends" he must have. For his sake, I hope someone was watching and waiting for him to return to consciousness, lest he hurt himself.

So I was trimming Buddy's nails, and I cut too far up on one of them and he YELPED and he BLED all over the place and it was terrible. Somehow he seems to have already forgiven me, which once again proves how morally superior dogs are to us wretched primates. :-(

| » Author excoriates piracy, while profiting from academic fraud. |
|---|
So, we have here an author, Tim W Lieder Tim W Lieder. In a discussion on ebook piracy, he naturally takes the position that it is bad. Fair enough. However, he acts like a completely self-righteous prick about it, deeming unauthorized copying an offense deserving of death. But then, he cheerfully admits that he writes term papers for money.
So let me get this straight: Piracy is theft and steals bread from the mouths of starving artists and EEEEVIL, but helping cheaters defraud institutions, inflating the grades of those of us who don't cheat... is apparently legal, and so not worthy of condemnation at all. The hypocrisy, it astounds. Given the small number of published works with his name on them, I wonder if the cheater-enabling is his primary source of income?

| » HERPES?!?!??!1! |
|---|
So, apparently Puck the Expensive Kitty has gotten wind of our plan to recoup our investment in him when he dies by making cat stir-fry. He's decided to retaliate by catching a disease that would make him unpalatable to the monkeys: Feline Herpes. At least both other cats have been vaccinated recently, and now that I've figured out exactly how long to wait after feeding him to give him his pills so he doesn't throw up, the secondary bacterial infections are under control. Stupid creature. Maybe cat-fur gloves instead...?
