- Most stupid comment I’ve read in the paper, from a column on the dangers of pit bulls: “The human community has been in denial for 20 years.” The HUMAN COMMUNITY??? Couldn’t we have gotten some couterpoint from, say, the attack dog community or the flea community? Jeez…

- Most strangely appealing song I’d almost forgotten but heard on Flashback Alternatives: “Heaven (Must Be There)” by Eurogliders…
