Ah. Would not have thought that, but Jersey City or even Hoboken are close enough to Manhattan to amount to living there, especially as compared to commuting from the parts of Brooklyn not by the bridge. Also no city income tax...

One of Queen Elizabeth's corgis killed a dog of Princess Anne's. Attack corgis are real.

And I live there. Go figure.

Red velvet cake: fruit of the gods.

Aka "the internet runs on cat gifs."

The model's "look" and hairdo are fairly memorable, so I'm pretty sure I've seen the photo - or at least him - before.

@Truereview - Where do you find these?

With older cats, you can tell what their adult personality and behavior will be like when you adopt them. What you see is what you get, generally. With kittens, it's not so easy. I lived with three kittens who were such firecrackers that we had to buy those plastic coils through which you insert electrical cords to prevent them from being chewed. They grew up to be the most inactive cats I know with the exception of occasional fights and chases. (Which used to be not so occasional until the moodiest cat went on Prozac at the vet's suggestion.)

Confusing?

Can we go back to contronyms? "Sanction" is another example. It can mean "approve" or it can mean "punish."

Ha. Peanuts would be my #2 and Calvin and Hobbes #3. Same list, opposite order. I once said Opus is Bloom County's Snoopy.

A tweet from this morning: Woke up at 6:30 am after 8+ hours of sleep (very unusual for me) to a cat meowing in my ear. Literally, as in "the cat is on the bed."

I was going to say "cats are lower maintenance."

Fair enough. Classic Bloom County (the first iteration) is my favorite comic strip ever.

I would rather see the judge recalled and the definition of rape anended to include all nonconsensual penetration, including that which occurs when the victim is unconscious.

All I can say is woof, for both men and canines.

I don't think any construction other than passive works.
