It's a Jungle In Here, Alice...
With apologies to R. Kramden. While in Africa on safari, I bagged three of the famed 'Big Five' must see mammals. (missing: rhino and leopard). Ro-mantic Ro-mammals. Now they roam my rug...
Knick-knack, patty whack, give a dog a bone...
Mixed-heritage ro-mammal?
The proverbial elephant in the room...
Let's get Junkie...

Box Office Gold
From The Onion, my favorite feature, “What Do YOU Think?
Question: Willie Nelson was issued a citation Monday for possession of marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms. What do you think?”
Answer 1: " He got caught? Crap. All right, I guess I got to call my other guy. "
Answer 2: " You can't arrest Willie Nelson for doing drugs. That's like arresting Aretha Franklin for being fat, or James Brown for any of the various crimes he's committed. "
Answer 3: " That's the difference between marijuana and alcohol: When Willie Nelson was pulled over, he had only nice things to say about Jews. "this entry's permalink

Scissorcrime Scissorgetaway
Emerson's purloined poster of the Best. Gay. Group. Ever. - What did they expect when they plastered Chelsea's surfaces with a velvet poster? Coming soon to a wall near me... But first, the crime must be followed with a frame-up...
Unbearable In Any Language
Can you guess which languages?

Get Serious About Terrorism!
or... I'm Such a Ninny!
Brian liked this cartoon, but complained that it was longer to read than "War and Peace." I reminded him, as I learned on Seinfeld, that the actual title of Tolstoy's masterpiece is "War. What Good Is It For?" : -)

Emerson and Milton
My friends arrived from Brazil! But their luggage did not... : - ( Happily, I have a vast collection of musical T-shirts. Emerson's on the right, wearing the Scissor Sisters logo, whereas Milton is blazened with the ultra-talented Ambulance Ltd.

From The Onion, my favorite feature, “What Do YOU Think?
Question: U.S. warplanes accidentally fired on Canadian troops in southern Afghanistan, killing one and wounding five. What do you think?”
Answer 1: This sends a powerful message to bin Laden. It says, 'We're willing to destroy any ally in order to hunt you down in what would be a largely symbolic victory. "
Answer 2: Clearly, U.S. military leaders are having some creative differences over there. One idea would be to decide on the enemy, and then agree not to kill people who do not fall under that category. "
Answer 3: " Look, the American military does not discriminate. Gay, straight, Taliban, Canadian, Pat Tillman—we will shoot you all."
Question: Labor Day immigration rallies drew fewer numbers than the marches held from earlier this year. What do you think?”
Answer 1: " If it’s true that these illegal immigrants are too lazy to fight for their rights, then that just proves how American they truly are. "
Answer 2: " Just goes to show you, the rights of immigrants will always come in a distant second when going head-to-head with a nice plate of potato salad. "
Answer 3: " Well, there you have it. Sometimes these issues just find ways of working themselves out. "

Lisbon At Dusk
From The Onion, my favorite feature, “What Do YOU Think?
Question: “A new technique of harvesting stem cells without destroying the embryos is coming under fire from the Vatican as unethical. What do you think?”
Answer 1: " I expect this kind of knee-jerk moral grandstanding from Bush, but the Vatican? " Answer 2: " I wish, time and time again, that the Vatican were not composed of the foremost scientists on embryonic research in the world. This makes it very difficult for anyone to argue a case against them, and we are repeatedly left at an impasse. " Answer 3: " It serves those scientists right for trying to slip under the Vatican's ethical radar with these disease-eradicating, life-saving experiments. "Question: An arbitrator for the state of Nebraska ruled that a state trooper could not be fired for belonging to the Ku Klux Klan. What do you think?”
Answer 1: I'm actually fairly impressed with this man. It has to be hard, time-consuming work to be part of two bigoted, fear-mongering groups simultaneously " Answer 2: Would you rather he vented his racism at unsuspecting motorists on the highway, or in the safe confines of a KKK meeting?" Answer 3: " The last time I checked, no one was forcing blacks or Jews to drive through Nebraska. So what exactly is the issue? "
