I Inject Pure Kryptonite Into My Brain, It Improves My Kung Fu and Eases the Pain . . .

Jed discusses the (somewhat murky and suspect) etymology of the term "can of corn." I must admit, I thought everyone knew this term. But then, I am rather myopic when it comes to baseball stuff. Man, do I miss going to games.

Chance sent me a picture of a baby elephant eating a Christmas tree. Chance is my favorite now.

Something I keep meaning to point people at is the Blue Sky Studios blog, where the thing that is done is that a challenge is posted, such as "draw a superhero" or "draw an evil robot" and several amazing artists rise to the occasion with pieces like this or this or this or, well, just go check it out. Blue Sky is an animation company, BTW. Like, the animation company that did "Ice Age"--so the artists are a bit higher caliber than the web at large.

Cat and Girl address the problem of elephant alcoholism.

I'd never have the guts to go so far, but this guy's tattoo is kind of awesome. (NSFW.)

Also, because I have the power of BitTorrent (Bwah-hah-hah-hah!) I have already seen the first two episodes of the new season of "24," and I just want to reiterate what I think we all already knew; Alexander Siddig is a sexy, sexy man.

Baby elephant squee!

And OMG I did not know that Alexander Siddig was in S6 of 24. I'm not sure I can wait for our annual 24-a-thon this year.

Ok, since some of us have JOBS and stuff, what is the NSFW tattoo?

(I have no intarwebs at home. well, we have intarwebs, but I do not yet have my own working computer. later this month I might. we'll see).

Don't make a girl wonder. Especially one who will REALLY WANNA KNOW.

you know.

Alexander Siddig! Haven't seen him in anything since DS9. I'm pretty excited about the new season, but I'll probably wait until it's broadcast, since it'll likely take me a while to get to it anyway. On the other hand, my reception on Fox is pretty crappy...

I'm glad you said that. I keep seeing new evidence of your innate good sense.
