I saw animals in a circle, marching around the state capital in Richmond. They were holding signs saying "WE DEMAND OPPOSABLE THUMBS!" The picketing wasn't very successful, though. They kept dropping the signs.

Dear Speedo: Your swimsuits look great on the young females at our pool, but I worry that I may be checking out a minor. Is there any way you can label the bathing suits to identify the wearer as over 18 and okay. One can't be too careful these days.

I've started putting the toilet paper roll on backwards. The unacceptable way. I'm doing this because no one ever gives credit to the person who puts on the new rolls. If it's in backwards, they'll know I did it.

The ripping out operation was successful. There's one spot that looks kind of irregular, but my guess is that it will be completely unnoticeable when the shawl is blocked.

Not much in the way of consolation, but I lost a job because of the government shutdowns in 1995-1996. There are cycles and things turn around.
