When in Boston, watch the Kaiju Big Battel. The rumble I’d most like to see? Club Sandwich vs. Kung Fu Chicken Soup.

At some point when I wasn’t looking, it seems Bovine Inversus has started to be written by my college buddy Phil de Cat with Grape Jelly.

I got my first paycheck from my super-secret second job yesterday. I can’t give the specifics, because I’ll get fired, but it involves only eating food. I get paid to eat. It’s a dream job, except my pay is $30 a month, maximum. Maybe it’s something I can build on. The beginnings of a multi-national getting-paid-to-eat gravy train. Mmmmm….. gravy…..

My kitty has to wear a cone on her head. I feel mighty guilty for finding her pitiful and funny at the same time. I was gone the last two days, and missed her first day with the cone on.

When are they going to come out with kitty Norplant?

It has been suggested that a comet or meteor strike may have ushered in the Dark Ages, the period in human history from 500AD to roughly 1000AD where progress around the world came to a halt or (in the case of Europe) moved backward. Data from tree rings lend support to this theory.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, long dead, is facing a Scotland Yard mudred probe after accusations surfaced yesterday that he stole the idea for Hound of the Baskervilles from a friend and then had him poisoned. According to the Sherlock Holmes Society, the charge is “complete bunkum.”
