TAKE THAT shitfork.

Hmm... there actually will be a Colbert Report. Here's his interview on NPR.

I got two new things today:

1. A skateboard owie.

2. A Babekub "Hard Core Punk":



It's made by the same company that does bearbrick.

Gotta keep up, people. Rokanova is now Bytenova, thus informing us that 'Roka' is the ancient leetish word for 'Byte'.

Also, leaving us in their dust, Something Awful reviews Boa vs. Python.

Hooray! Good news abound today! That wheel surf thing is XXXtreme to the MAX! Can't think of anything to say right now, Albert out.

Just heard this from the CJSR listserv: Apparently, the Sidetrack lives on, and won't be making way for condo developments as we'd been previously led to believe.

I'm going to eat apple pie and raspberries for lunch. I love grocery shopping day!

That's good to hear, Jess.

On an amazingly unrelated note, who's working in the Faculty of Arts at the U of A?



Sure, Jere, you could get a vespa. Or, you could be really hardcore, and get one of these babies.

I took Belle to the vet yesterday because her back legs are becoming more and more unreliable and it turns out she has neither arthritis nor hip dysplasia (well, a tiny little bit in one hip, but surprisingly little). She has some inflamation around her spinal column which her body is reacting to by building extra bone which is pinching off the nerves going to her back legs. So it's good news because it doesn't hurt her, and there are some drugs which can help bring the inflamation down to minimize further damage. And as long as nothing more goes wrong with her she could live another six months to two years, depending on how well she reacts to the anti-inflamitories. So I guess that's good news.
