lolarious article about cat strollers. "'I originally bought them a leash and trained them at home with it but they kept lying down.'" "Asked if she was planning to have a child, Ms Marino said: "'As you can see, we need one.'"

You can tell the good Captain is offworld: Jack has been knocked off the top spot for babies' names.

Stop watching Doctor Who, you idiot! Now this is a very interesting blog post (some thoughtful comments, too). I read a lot of honest, intelligent criticisms online, but it's hard to understand why people keep watchin' and kvetchin' if they're getting nothing but disappointment. Or are they still enjoying some aspects but not talking about them? Or is it the social glue of shared disapproval? It's a puzzle.

Croakers is an essay from the Nation about Michael Jackson and William S. Burroughs.

I have a short story in the latest Torchwood magazine! Bwee!

Shame I've just had a bottle of wine in the space of an hour. Otherwise I could say coherently that Lee Harris is clearly a wise person indeed, and that the idea of a Kate Orman Torchwood story makes me giddy with anticipation, and that the idea of cat strollers is greatly amusing. But our cat Spencer was a rescue pet, abandoned outside by his previous owners in a Canadian winter, and he has never even tried to go outside, and also Laura says I should step away from the keyboard now. So maybe next time.

If Timbo doesn't get off my desk right now and quit trying to steal my Weet Bix, it will be THE END OF TIM.

I, for one, welcome the return of our Tim Lords.
