I posted
this question on the green not too long ago about the best cat in the world. My little fellow didn't make it through his surgery but I feel confident those who responded helped make the right decision. Thank you for your support.

Update to
this post on Tim Langdell, Mobigames and the Edge trademark:
EA Victorious as Court Denies Injunction Against Publisher for 'Edge' Trademark The court has denied Edge Games’ motion for injunction, citing that it believes that Langdell made fraudulent statements to the US Patent and Trademark Office and strongly believes that Langdell is “suspect,” and has been “trolling” the game industry for licensing opportunities. His actions could possibly warrant “criminal penalties.”

Some of you might remember
this post about Talula's Table, the restaurant in Chester County, PA, that has a one-year wait for reservations. Earlier this year, Aimee Olexy and Brian Sikora, the husband and wife team behind Talula's, filed for divorce. Philly food critic Craig LaBan has a
bittersweet article about the end of their marriage, and how Aimee and the staff at Talula's are soldiering on.

If anyone signed up for the Delta Green: Targets of Opportunity ransom as a result of

A while ago I did a post on group Where-The-Wild-Things-Are tribute blog
Terrible Yellow Eyes. They're now having
an exhibition for those lucky enough to live in LA, should you want to see some of the great artworks in person. I have no idea if any are for sale, I suspect not what with copyrights etc.
