This just in from Jim: TAIPEI (Jan 29) - The decomposing remains of a 66-ton sperm whale exploded on a busy Taiwan street, showering nearby cars and shops with blood and organs and stopping traffic for hours, local newspapers said.

I've read about "the conveyor" before. I sure hope it doesn't stop working. If it does, we're all screwed. Abrupt climate changes, droughts, resources become scarce, which leads to war...cats and dogs living together... So screwed

I've always wanted to try my hand at busking. Get out, see the people, practicing singing, donate any money I get to the homeless...Maybe not...we just got this game for X-mas for the Playstation; Karaoke Revolution...You compete against other people in karaoke. The game scores you on how well you sing the song based on the pitch of your voice, if you hit the note at the right time and hold it for the proper duration. Kelly kicked my butt. I was quite pissed. I'll have to practice some of those songs and get my revenge...
