I just saw this photo from my Flickr contacts photostream. Our local news team is, as always, on bleeding edge of journalism. (Image courtesy of JesusHShatner, who actually lives nowhere near here but found it somewhere.)

Links from others! Thanks, everyone.

From Bunny: how to make a towel elephant. We're thinking of trying this for a Meet Cleaver Theatre episode. I'll let you know how it turns out.

From Cassandra: Do hyperactive kids really need to be medicated?

From Holly: squirrels that swim (and hitch rides on ships), cats that wander (and hitch rides home) and a bizarre story involving a man and a bike (and anything I say about hitching would probably sound vulgar).

Swiped from Scalzi's site: a contest involving the Creation Museum, LOLcat captions, and autographed scifi goodness! Even if you don't want to take part in the contest, the Flickr set of John's visit to the Creation Museum is worth a look. I think it would be too dangerous a place for the Spooky Librarians to visit; my eyes would roll out of my head, Bunny would get beaten to a pulp by some militant Christians for making too many snarky remarks, and both our heads would explode from trying to figure out how the dinosaurs could have coexisted with the Egyptians and why it's Adam's fault that roses have thorns. (Yes. REALLY.)

Have a spiffy weekend, everyone! See you Monday.
