T.S. Eliot-themed J.K. Rowling parody

via rosefox: I had not thought Death Eaters had undone so many.

I haven't read The Hollow Men (and I haven't finished this), but I think now I'll have to.

Academic geeks may appreciate the fact that the author actually included line numbers in proper style. :)

NOLA cat story

You know, I could just about kill BoingBoing.

They posted this. (First item.)

Fortunately, it linked to the original posting, which finished the story. (Hint: happy ending.)

I mean, okay, I'm not really _that_ pissed off at BB. And I realize that there are a lot of actual human beings that have died, in far worse circumstances, _today_ (never mind in Katrina's aftermath). But I'll always remember feeling the life go out of my cat, and I can identify closely with this guy for that reason...and BB let me think that his cat had actually died, dammit. I'm just glad that I followed the link, or I'd have been depressed all day.

This concludes today's pointless rant.
