Mice? Mice? Don't Talk To Me About Mice!
From the You Can't Make This Stuff Up Department: Oklahoma City seizes 30,000 mice
Oklahoma City police succeeded in busting an illegal rodent farm but now authorities are faced with the problem of what to do with 30,000 white mice seized in the raid.That is, I presume, as opposed to a legal rodent farm?
"We have completely emptied our truck port where the vehicles come in and have it totally filled with mice. We don't know what to do with them. They are sitting and waiting," Lira said.Well, if they're only sitting and waiting, you don't have a problem. It's when they start - you know - that you have a problem.
"He told us he wanted out of the mouse business," Lira said.Should've called Disney.

Mean Mr Mustard Sleeps In The Park
Blog of the Day is Mean Mr. Mustard who is in his own words "lazy as a comatose sloth on Thorazine". Good thing blogging doesn't require strenuous physical activity, then.
As If!
Web Comic of the Day has to be As If! The link takes you to a lovely pink-and-blue portal page, from which you can jump straight to the latest strip or go to the archives to see older stuff.
All of the strips from day one are online, or you can download them as zip files to read at your leisure.
What's it like? It's like, well, cool. And stuff. Just read it, willya?
Mooveable Tripe
I'm tinkering with Moveable Type but right now that blog is even uglier than this one. When I get it up and running, you'll be the second to know.
I'm A Worm, I'm A Worm, I'm A Wiggly Worm!
All of a sudden I'm a wiggly worm. Not, as it turns out, because anyone reads my blog, but because I was indexed by the automatic indexer at blo.gs. Alas. But I'll enjoy my wormhood while it lasts, which is not likely to be long.
