Fur-Coated Evil

I read an enthralling little article in Uncle John's GREAT BIG Bathroom Reader today (I'll spare you the circumstances that lead to my reading the book) and it just seemed to leap of the page. The article was about "ferret-legging," a sport so ridiculously idiotic that it could only have originated in Scotland (the nation that also gave us golf). Basically, you tie the bottom of your pants to your ankles, insert two ferrets, and tie your waist tight with some rope. You are allowed to smack the ferrets (described as shark-of-the-land, piranha-with-feet, and fur-coated evil). The man who lasts the longest is the winner. Did I mention that there's no underwear allowed? Not that it would survive the encounter.

Today we tested some stabilized fibers, which are fibers that have been spun and dried, but not heat treated. We got some interesting data. Too bad I can't tell you about it. Also did some thesis work.

Ruby Tuesday makes a pretty good hamburger. Not nearly as good as Huey's. I've also been told to try a Red Robin burger. I know only of their seasoning, which is actually pretty good. The commercials look pretty good too. So we'll see.

There's still a rant coming. I'm cooking something up...you just wait.
