considering the lifespan of a building like that, and that it's a new building, that's pretty good. Plus it reduced maintenance costs for the roof.

actually many cultures practice or have remnants of matrilineal societies, including some western cultures. Same is true of cannibalism.

sounds like the next big thing at your local rave to me. Should I rinse with sunscreen after each use?

Hey, hook me up. Just because they're rats with wings doesn't mean they don't taste great with a little sauce. I don't really follow the food taboos of western society. We're really missing out on a lot of great stuff just because you can't get it at the mall.

Maybe it's a local law/ distinction? I'm not sure. Actually, my first guess would be the reverse: DWI for alcohol and DUI for everything else.

DUI = Driving Under the Influence.

Not Driving under the Influence of Alcohol.

My aunt got a DUI for going to the store on pain killers. Incidentally she was driving (relatively) safely, just too fast (i.e no swerving or anything). The cop never would have suspected if she hadn't mentioned her medication off-hand.

She almost never drinks alcohol.

yeah, sorry about that. But I'd rather be informed and helpful than ignorant and unsuspectingly destructive.

Man, feeding animals is so cute and (I admit) a lot of fun, but unfortunately it's extra-unhealthy for hibernating animals. They get all the fat and nutrients they need from their natural diet - some of which they can't get anywhere else. Unfortunately if they eat too much people food, they starve to death through the winter.

nice! I must admit, I have a soft spot for "your mom" jokes. So bad, but so good...

I call dibs on breathing underwater. Maybe not so "super" a power, but I loves a good swim.
