How sharp is Kate’s sword? Here is Mihail Abramchik. He will dance and pray a bit before he gets to the cutting part. He also makes the sword sing at some point. To be able to cut through a water bottle the way he does, you have to hold the sword at a right angle

Found Dog
We found this guy on our doorstep this morning in Cedar Park TX. No chip, no collar. We took him to the two neighboring vets, but nobody recognized him. He is at Williamson County No Kill Animal Shelter. He is in good hands and we donated some money to the shelter to pay for his

Faceplant, A Solution to All Problems
I don’t know if it’s the muggy terrible weather, the allergies, or what, but I have a distinct urge to just topple forward and flop my head onto the desk. For some reason, it feels like it would make me feel better. I am all groggy and not quite dizzy but slightly off. And I’m

A beautiful planet hung in the space in front of them, a green and blue jewel, the turquoise veil of atmosphere glowing gently. It wasn’t Earth, but it could’ve been

Annual reminder
This is a PSA. Brace yourselves. As some of you probably know, my mother died of breast cancer at a relatively young age. She saw a bruise on her breast that refused to heal and then she waited for months to go to the doctor, because that’s the way my mother did things. It took
