[substitute]

1. Reading an article about the Iraq war in The Economist today, I aw in an interview with a U.S. officer that the euphemism "force" for "killing people" has now been replaced with the euphemism for "force": "kinetics". Please make a note of it.
   
   
2. My cat is hungry all the time, yet barfs a lot. She's seriously like a dog now in that every time I get up she assumes it's food time. I'm thinking we're not feeding her enough, but I don't want her to get fat again. Worry.
   
   
3. In Nightmare Come to Life news, Floridians with soft contact lenses are getting EYE FUNGUS INFECTIONS AAA AA AAIIIIIIGGH.
   
   
4. Check out the world champion of fast drawing!
   
   
5. In the latest Grim Meathook News, the CDC's Morbidity & Mortality Report documents the Worst Reeboks Ever. Yeesh.
   
   
6. Soon you'll be able to get the awesome Google Earth in your car.
   
   
7. The headline of the day is: MAN CONVICTED FOR SHOOTING ROBOT MOOSE.
   
   
8. Fans of the over-the-top crazy soap Passions will be delighted with their new website. I think this is the first time I've seen the Crack House font since Diablo.
   
   
9. If you wonder whether the government is going to get your weblogs, consult this list of subpoena'd ISPs and sites.

She's had her share of medical problems, but the vet says this is just hairball. Considering she's already had a kidney out, she doesn't need any more illnesses! But I will definitely mention this again.

hairball was my first thought (although i would certainly keep an eye out for something more serious). i've had the same problem with my giant ball of fur in that she eats and almost immediately pukes up the undigested cat food and then is still hungry so she eats again. i read it's because the hairball is blocking where ever it is the food wants to go so it comes right back out.

i give her this Bezo Pet stuff. it's a lubricant that tastes like fish and seems to really help. not sure if you can get it in the states but there must be many other products like it.

prolly you know all this already but, fwiw, there are my 2 cents.
