So Snoozy Together
The story of the Maneki Neko, the Beckoning Cat
You've seen them a thousand places before, but where did the beckoning cat symbol come from, and what does it mean? Read and learn.
Capybabies!
TEH CUTEZ!
(Oddly enough, capybaras came up in conversation last night. Don't recall why.)

Five Baby Capybaras Born at Zoo Berlin – ZooBorns
Zoo Berlin recently welcomed five baby Capybaras to their South American exhibit! Born just several weeks ago, the five pups, along with mother, Lucia, explored their enclosure for the first time! Careful to stay close to mother and each other,…

Unblogged Bits (Sat. 6-Aug-11 2330)
Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- This is a new one on me – When you play in someone else’s imaginary backyard, you can’t take it personally if they, someday, relandscape it. Most of the good writers for the major comic book companies (David included) realize this when they work on a company-owned character, too.
- Maximum cuteness level achieved: admin
- Wear Sunglasses to See Better When Driving in the Rain
- How the World Wide Web was nearly called The Information Mesh – (1) The chosen name increased the number of times the letter “w” was said out loud by several orders of magnitude. There’s probably a fantasy story there involving some plotting by a demon named “Dubuyu”. (2) I loved Gopher. The service protocol, not the Love Boat crewmember.
- The Best Wi-Fi Names of All Time [Pic] – Heh.
- Nuclear Implications for China’s High Speed Train Wreck – IEEE Spectrum – I’m sure all the good Ayn Rand fans will suggest that if train construction contractors or nuclear plant engineering companies do a shoddy or corner-cutting job, the only thing to do is simply to buy from someone else after the resulting disaster.
- Wikipedia Is Slowly Dying – Well, that would be sad.
- The Onion Testing A Metered Paid Model | paidContent:UK – Why look — the Onion wants to have fewer people reading articles passed around from it.
- Some people don’t know this – Well, I knew this. But, then …
- Record-High 45.8 Millions Americans Using Food Stamps – Parasites!
- Man With Breast Cancer Can’t Get Medicaid Coverage Because He’s A Man – I’m pretty darned sure that wouldn’t stand up to a court challenge. Of course, he’d probably be dead by then.

Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- Video Chat on Your Android Phone – Which would be cool, if the camera and the screen on my Android phone pointed in the same direction.
- Are Trump and the birthers hypocrites? Racists? – Nice …
- Letter from George Washington to an annual meeting of Quakers – Particularly given the persecution of Quakers in most of the colonies, I see nothing here that doesn’t sound like Washington would apply it to any religious faith.
- David Barton on Thomas Jefferson – Did Jefferson approve church in the Capitol? – Sounds like an exercise in fellowship more than ministry to my eyes.
- John Yoo Discusses Limits to Executive Power – The guilty man flees where no one pursueth.
- Too cute Disney Duck Picture (Not Donald) – TEH CUTE! (And I know exactly where that is.)
- Wingnut Mob Now Boycotting Superman, Because He Hates America – Yeah, there’s no surprise. No actual examination of the storyline, nor even consideration of what the statement might be about. Yeah, cause that’s “nuance.”
- Oh look. The Birthers are already playing with the new toy President Obama gave them. – I think it was probably a reasonable timing to convince Hawaii to make an exception to provide the long form birth certificate. But the point was not so much to shut up the birthers (who are so deranged that they’ll come up with new conspiracy theories) as to finally put paid to the “why doesn’t he show his birth certificate?” crap. Which, one would hope, would further discredit (to the rest of the nation) the whole right-wing zaniness that is birtherism.
- Facebook shoots first, ignores questions later; account lock-out attack works (Update X) – Ah, the joys of active management of an Internet monoculture.
- Rick Santorum: U.S. Shirking Its Responsibility To Fight “Militant Socialism” – The Red Menace is back!
- Ayn Rand and the Conservative Contradiction – “Any politician or media figure who claims to be an admirer of both Rand and Jesus is either hopelessly confused or an out-and-out liar.”
- Oklahoma GOPer: It’s A Fact That ‘Blacks’ Don’t Work As Hard | TPMDC – Stay classy, Oklahoma GOP!
- Letter from Mark Twain to a snake oil peddler – Lovely.
- The Only Thing You Can Do Legally If You’re on the Terror Watch List Is Buy a Gun [Gun Control] – The only rights the Right wouldn’t be willing to take from even terrorists.
- The Ancient Japanese Tsunami Stones Kept Villagers Alive [Japan] – It’s fashionable to poke fun at tradition and ancient community wisdom. And there’s sometimes reason for that. But it’s worth at least considering they might know what the heck they were talking about …
- Facebook Games Could Be Responsible For Demise Of Soap Operas – Innnteresting. Not quite sure whether that’s a good thing (interaction!) or a bad thing (Facebook Games!).
- Watching Shows On DVR Might Save Them From Being Canceled – This is good news. Especially since I rarely watch TV shows any other way.
- E.T. call waiting – SETI just costs $2.5MM? Damn, I’ll bet I could find that money in about 15 minutes in the federal budget.
- Sarah Palin Mocks Katie Couric For Leaving CBS – Stay classy, Ms. Sarah!
Unblogged Bits for Monday, 05 October 2009
Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- A Swift view of Andromeda – Whenever I see lovely pics of galaxies, the end titles music for the (original) Outer Limits always plays in my head.
- HAPPY Days or, Should Pets Be Tax Deductible? – Everyone has sacred cows — and when you’re a Congresscritter, of whatever party, you get to vote in tax advantages to them. I have pets, but I’d just as soon not get a tax deduction for them.
- Why American Credit Cards Suck [Travel Tips] – Yeah, we’re going to be the greatest country in the world right until we turn around one day and realize everyone else has left us behind.
- Photographers – Toughest Shot | Outside Online – Okay, I’m now cured of wanting to be a professional photographer.

- Competitive Awesome: Yum…Camel Balls! – Extra sour!
- You know the name, but just who were the Luddites? – A little bit of noteworthy history.
- Happy 40th, Monty Python! (And Now, For Something Completely Different) – Certainly one of the great cultural influences of our time. At least in the subculture I inhabit.
- Great billboards – Nice hourglass.
- Product Ideas for Google Reader – Google Product Ideas – A great way to solicit (and vote on) feature ideas. Of the 2,000 ideas received, they’ve come up with responses (“Answered Ideas”) on a dozen … none of mine, alas.
- Busted burglar – I guess if you’re going to be burgled, it’s good to have a burglar with a sense of humor.

- France Announces $2.2 Billion Electric Car Charging Network: Sarah Parsons
