Aces Full of Links: Delayed Shotgun

February 24, 2005

Delayed Shotgun

Yes, there will be an actual shotgun post today. After a brief delay which I will blame on snow and illness. I’m trying to take it easy so I can lick this vile affliction. I would love to meet the new week having sent this virus packing.

[…later…]

OK, on with the links.

Perhaps licking the vile affliction is what got you sick in the first place.

Re: Dolls for the Elderly

"Thank you for giving me a heart-warming baby. I'm no longer alone," an 82-year-old woman wrote while another senior woman said she was raising the doll "as my own child".

EEEK!

All I could think about while watching "Litterbox" was what they did to that cat to make it screach. Teasing the cat so you can record it's screams is mean.

That and it wasn't too funny.

Funny, thats what I think whenever I hear Mariah Carey.

That's right. If you are going to torture animals, at least be entertaining about it.

Ok, that nature anthem is just plain weird. Funny. But weird.

Alright, Brian, you know exactly what I meant!

James, do you hear Mariah Carey often? This might explain your inability to sleep at night.

Oh, I just added a new link up there. Baby Got Book. Definitely worth a look before the weekend.
