I’ve learned that expecting the general public to be able to tell a parody from the real thing can sometimes be a lot to ask, but shouldn’t we all be able to expect better from a police chief? Annapolis Police Chief Michael A. Pristoop thought he came prepared when he testified before a Maryland state …

Limp Who?
I have nothing to say about this. I’m just going to let you listen to it, because it is great. The Lounge Kittens – Rollin’ (Limp Bizkit cover) Limp Bizkit should just sign over the rights right now, because this song no longer belongs to them.
A Petition To Consider
You can tell Gill’s back from her vacation. For the second day in a row, here she is. It was two years ago this very day that I saw probably the worst movie ever made. It was called Wander Lust, and friends I don’t normally bring out fire and brimstone Gillie, but this movie was …

Did you also know that that junk could also mean something else? Unfortunately I am living Nimby, not in my backyard. It seems that since 2007 …
The Wrong Type Of Hackathon
Tans has been a very healthy dog. We haven’t had one ear infection yet. I took her to the vet once because she developed hives…I’m wondering if it was an allergy to bug bites or some plants or something. Once I took her to the vet because she started hacking, and puked up a couple …
Tansy Observations, The Winter Edition
It’s been a while since I’ve written Tansy updates, so here’s a bunch. As I was combing the blog to make sure I hadn’t already written some of these things, I laughed at the following passage: “So Tansy’s first winter has arrived, and we’ve had a few challenges, but nothing like what Trix and I …
