    Mashup of RAV4 owners and RenFaire madness

    What do you get if you mix 2 apparently disparate interests? Such as, say, Toyota RAV4s, and Renaissance Faire-type re-enactor silliness? You get Rav4 Jousting. I own a RAV. I own Ren Faire garb. Luckily, I don't have a moonroof, so I won't be going on the jousting circut anytime soon.

    Global Warming in from the Cold!

    AP Wire | 01/30/2007 | Panel hears climate 'spin' allegations WASHINGTON – Federal scientists have been pressured to play down global warming, advocacy groups testified Tuesday at the Democrats' first investigative hearing since taking control of Congress. It's good to have a Congress capable of doing its job: investigating the issues and providing oversight. And yes, you WH pinheads, global warming is fact, not fiction.

    Riley’s Self Image

    Riley looks just like this when he's grabbed his favorite boingy-boingy toy in his mouth and tries to walk off with it before getting pulled back by the elastic cord. Just now David was playing with him upstairs and we had a case of "wacky cat" right on the bed. Riley went completely spazzy for the toy, and we were lounging at either end of it just laughing hysterically at him. Then he collided with the laptop and decamped for the relative safety of the floor. Funny little kitty!
