My favorite:
If your girl seems to be tired of observing the ceiling pattern then ask her lie on the belly.
I would have never thought of that.
Keeping His Priorities Straight
With his precious EU project in tatters, and unemployment rates in “old Europe” (i.e., Germany and France) at all-time highs, and students rioting because they won’t be guaranteed employment for life, Jacques Chirac decided to walk out of an economic conference of the EU because one of the French industrialists had the temerity to speak in the “language of business.” That is to say, English.
And Now For Something Completely Different
…some experts question if asexuality even exists. There’s been virtually no research on the subject. Psychologists disagree on how to define it. And there’s no certainty on what might influence it. Do hormones, genetics, personal experiences play a part? With no clinical or scientific conclusions on the subject, asexuals create their own definition.
And that definition is a far cry from celibacy, Jay pointed out. “It’s not a choice. Celibacy is a choice, whereas asexuality is just the way that you are. Much like being gay is not a choice, or being straight or being right-handed,” he said.
Some studies show that asexual behavior does exist in the animal world. Dr. Anthony Bogaert of Brock University in Ontario, who has conducted one of the few studies of human asexuality said he found as much as 1 percent of the population may be asexual.
But, as with other abnormal sexual orientations, there are some people determined to “fix” them.
And before anyone gets upset with my use of the word “abnormal,” there’s nothing wrong with that.

Quite A Ride
Here’s the story of a teenager who was carried a quarter of a mile by a tornado, and lived to tell the tale:
Grazulis said 300 to 400 feet was about the limit in order to survive a tornado-toss. One 9-year-old girl and her pony survived a 1,000-foot flight in 1955, but this was the longest previously known distance, he said.
Still On The March
Here’s a pretty disturbing interview with a University of Minnesota researcher on the potential for an avian flu pandemic:
If this were to go human-to-human

At Least It’s Not A Barking Spider
A Dutch family is being taxed for a barking doorbell:
”Last year it was a huge effort to convince the inspector that we didn’t have a dog, and now it’s happened again,” Gerrit Bruintjes was quoted as saying by RTL Nieuws.
In the Netherlands, dog owners are required to pay the ”hondenbelasting,” an infamous annual tax that is frequently evaded.
Actually, I think that “barkingspider” would be a great blog name. Or as a plural, a band name.
