Thanks, Baxter!
I don't usually do this, but please read this article on CNN.
While you're reading, I'll be furiously working in my underground laboratory discovering ways to use voles to fuel my car. Stay tuned.

Even though I don’t know what it means, anything we can do to drive down the price of petrol per liter, I am in favor of. As far as I know, I only use the liter measurement when I drink something, does this mean they drink petrol? I don’t think I like the idea of that, but I can never be against driving down the price of anything. Hey, did I mention I’m on medication right now? Yeah, so far it’s successfully made me dizzy and tired, but not so much on the reduced swelling and pain relief.

Ah, the possibilities. Now the inventor is denying he ever said anything about actually using the um, subject matter, that it was all theoretical. Apparently he holds to the Backstroke, Backpedal and Spin school of thought.

BOOO, they changed the story. That's why I should know better than to put links in posts.

Crummy. There goes my pet disposal plan...all the good ideas never come to fruition.

Happy Anniversary Omar and the Wife! Nine years of real life omarphillips.net foibles...kudos.
On a rodent-related note, my sleep is being terrorized by a ginormous, unidentified vermin. I'm afraid to ask, but...could the vole be going intercontinental?

I hope I got the right article. about the cats..and the fuel...and the guy...right? I know everyone's been persnickety (its a word. I think) about the oil prices (I hear about it everyday from my dad) but some people have way too much time on their hands to be collecting kitties and churning them out into fuel. this reminds me of that whole bonsai kittens email hoax. some people REALLY hate cats, eh?
also, Happy Anniversary to you and the wife (what up, Mrs Phillips? :D)!! Congratulations on the 9 years.
Glo said:
Had a long talk with the cats, who are highly disappointed that they won't be serving as an alternate fuel source. They are *such* environmentalists...now we're back to cremation v. burial. The argument will never end!

I've moved!
Glo said:
Hmmm...Nadia moved and didn't leave me her forwarding address...
I said:
Thanks all, for the anniversary wishes! It was a great day.
Nadia, I saw the vole here this weekend, so it's either a relative of his, or he's been stealing my credit card to pay for air fare to and from Malaysia. I'll let you know when I get my bill.

I'd be careful of that vole. It would appear that some violent propaganda is circulating among the rodent-sized creature population.
