Jeni...
If your pets are that nervous, you are right to be concerned. Tics are manifestations of trauma, usually brought about by abusive owners who don't use punctuation. I'd wager that your pets are showing other symptoms as well. Cats who have been mentally tortured will often "cover up" their own feces in an attempt to hide their "shame." Your pet needs therapy to offset the years of...oh, you menat ticks. Sorry, we're not freakin' doctors.

Hey Guys,
Instead of always writing about bands, how about writing about the girlfriends who support them? I know more than a few who would gladly appreciate a little recognition, especially those whose boyfriends preay them with songs about how much more successful they'd be if they were single (conveniently forgetting the whole rent/grocery/pomade necessities taht sustain their erratic musical careers). It's nauseating to read interviews about how hard a band works when it's common knowledge they wouldn't be able to eat, let alone tour, without the help of long-suffering women who love them (however stupidly). Of course, as I was recently reminded, you never hear about the girls who brought Motley Crue hairspray.

We'll think about it. Hey, why don't you go get us something to eat. And some beer. We totally appreciate it.

Top websites of the week
- Lawrence Brothers Writing smart-alecky accompanying copy to, well, everything, has make us jaded and bitter. It took this site to give us that old optimistic glow that we used to get watching "Blossom." Woh!
- Rather Good The only place we've found where you can see flying Viking kittens singing about a gay bar. Which is weird, really.
- Home Star Runner Check out the sb (Strong Bad) email and click on "dragon" if you dare. Beware teh wrath of Trogdor! We don't claim to understand any of this; we just don't want to be burniated.
- Museum of Hoaxes Just what it sounds like. If you're tired of falling for the annual Swiss spaghetti harvest, the Taco Liberty Bell, the hotheaded naked ice borers, or the California gubernatorial recall, this site will prepare you for greater skepticism.
- VGG Home of furniture porn, the satanglican church, and rocklopedia fakebandica, the ultimate compendium of fake bands through opo cultural history.
