I don't know where my cat picked up this idea that sour cream was meant for feline consumption. We had tacos for dinner, I forgot to put the lid back on, and skinny cat was face first in the sour cream as soon as I left the kitchen. Aside from the cat being a twit, the tacos were lovely, but the lettuce tasted kind of weird. I'm not sure why.
Having just read The Disadvantages of an Elite Education, one of the things that really leapt out at me is Deresiewicz's comments on the fear of failure. It is amazing the lengths that people will go to in order to avoid failure -- everything except actually doing whatever it was they were supposed to be trying to succeed at.
For fans of the bard, we've unearthed the Facebook News Feed edition of Hamlet. My favourite: "Hamlet posted an event: A Play That's Totally Fictional and In No Way About My Family".
I really want one of these. The idea of a beanbag chair the size of my couch appeals to me enormously. I like furniture I can fling myself on and then sort of flop over the side.
