No word yet on what she’s actually planning to DO with a whole colony of kidnapped (er, surprise-adopted) sea creatures…

This falling asleep while committing a crime thing keeps happening again, again, and again. Does America need just one giant melatonin tablet dropped in their neighborhood water supply so they get enough sleep every night?

I’ve never understood why men have this subconscious tendency to avoid asking for directions under any circumstances. That’s why I have to say I’m a bit proud this man took the initiative to stop and ask where he was going. I immediately took it back when I read the rest of the story.

Cell phones are a miracle of technological ingenuity, aren’t they? We can receive and make phone calls from just about any point in the globe (that manage to get a signal that lasts longer than a second) that sound just as clear as a land telephone line (that is if your land telephone line features whole blocks of static and interuptions that make you sound like Billy from “Cuckoo’s Nest”) and for only a small amount of money (if you’re Bill Gates). Here’s yet another example of their usefulness…
