        11/30/06
        This morning in Los Angeles, a large alligator tried to eat a naked gentleman who was smoking crack.
        The alligator had the man in his jaws when deputies arrived at the La Brea tarpits about 4 a.m. today. They were called by nearby residents who reported hearing a man yelling for help.

        11/28/06
        So I go to do a quick read of the boingboing RSS feed to see if Jenny is out of surgery yet, but nothing. "No biggie, I'll just recap Mark, Cory and David's idiocy, instead," I think, yet it seems the grown-ups all left Cory home alone. Still, I started to dig in, but about the f

        Isn't it wonderful when some dude sets himself on fire? Xeni thinks it is.

        Isn't it wonderful that scientists have figured out that apparently head trauma causes brain injury?

        Isn't it wonderful when there are minor problems with electronic voting? I know every t

        Yet, strangely apropos:
        "Lately, I've been scraping the bottom of the barrel for material."

        I can only assume he's speaking in the plural; he's hardly the only one scraping the bottom of the barrel for material. Seriously, though, I feel bad for his kids. Ima
