Here’s your Friday reading list:
1. Best link of the day:The Cat in the Bag. Cracked me up and frustrated me all at once. In sum: Dane Bramage knows which of his cats would be “down with” wearing a fast-food bag. I know the same of mine. But apparently wearing a fast food bag constitutes felony animal cruelty in some circles. (Guess my cats didn’t get that memo – they go into bags all the time.) More at the link.
2. Abbagav has not one, but two entries that make the list: First: his most recent, where he discusses the incredible (snort) loss of his family guinea pigs and suggests a solution to the “pet problem.” And second: how could I pass up the story of How He Was Tasted And Lived To Tell The Tale.
3. You know the kids are upset when you become not “mean daddy” or “bad daddy” but the evil-character-from-the-video-game-or-television Daddy. Or in Jerry’s case,”Fire Nation Daddy.”
4. Props to Adam for telling the ACLU to go “sit on a tack.” Excellent phrasing, extra points for the gaming reference. All yourapplause are belong to him. Article at Adam’s Blog.
5. Someone needs to teach Democrats the meaning of the phrase “No Takebacks.”Playground and elementary-schoolish as the term may be, it’s the proper (and apparently age-appropriate) response to the latest plan to repeal the 2002 war authorization.Full story and commentaryat Wizbang.
6. As always: Running from Camera.
Word on the street is that The Platypus Society is back, large and in charge on March 1. Until then, we’ll be looking forward to The Return of Chris Carlisle.
This is also your weekend OTP, from now until I post another one. Been a little behind on the OTPs this week,but I’ll try to make up for it by linking in your trackbacks over the weekend:
As always, shamelessly self-promoted at:
