So Advanced!






Only eight months old and already a savy media critic. The nut didn't fall far from the tree with Genevieve. I was watching TV last night while the wife was out playing softball. Genevieve crawled over to the TV, pulled herself up, and began to slap the TV screen, proving that she likes my stories about as much as her mother.

Warning to Ava: Genevieve is now mobile and trained in the dark arts of the Ninja.

There can be only one!

My cat hates you!




My cat hates you. He hates everything about you. He hates the way you dress. He hates your crappy hair cut. He hates the way you speak. He thinks you waddle like a duck. He hates your profile. My cat doesn't like the cut of your jib. Your mere presence causes my cat to seethe with rage. The only thing that is keeping my cat from killing you is his lack of opposable thumbs. The only question that remains is; what are you going to do about it? Yeah, my cat thought so. My cat thinks you are a whuss. In fact, he hates you even more now.

What the hell.

Reuters is reporting that a chicken has laid an egg with the word Allah inscribed on it.

ALMATY (Reuters) - A chicken in a Kazakh village has laid an egg with the word "Allah" inscribed on its shell, state media reported Thursday.
"Our mosque confirmed that it says 'Allah' in Arabic," Bites Amantayeva, a farmer from the village of Stepnoi in eastern Kazakhstan, told state news agency Kazinform.
"We'll keep this egg and we don't think it'll go bad."
The news agency said the egg was laid just after a powerful hail storm hit the village.
Kazakhstan is a large, thinly populated Central Asian state where Sunni Islam is a dominant religion.


This incident follows closely on the heals of the fish that was caught that had the word Allah in Arabic inscribed on it side.

A few months ago, I took a crap that was shaped like Mohammed's scimitar. I didn't want to keep it because it had already gone bad. When I flushed it, I swear I heard the words, "Allahu Akbar". It was sort of creepy. I didn't say anything at the time because I didn't want the media exposure.
