LOLCats of the Moment
Last December I posted about Cat Macros, pictures of cats with funny captions, usually in a kind of pidgin kitty talk. The meme is still around, mercifully renamed to "LOLCats" (and applied to tons of other non-Cat things).
The most canonical site seems to be I CAN HAZ CHEEZBURGER? I browsed its whole archive the other day, looking for this one that's been banging around my head:

That's Mo's cat Murphy, in a shot grabbed from the bottom of
this page in my photbook. Memetastic! (I have no idea who assembled the final product.)
Quote of the Moment
The Devil does not know a lot because He's the Devil, He knows a lot because he's old.
News of the Moment
