All is well in Downing Street again!

Number 10 has a new cat.

(The position has been vacant since Cherie Blair evicted Humphrey in 1997.)

Bad names

Posted on a forum--these are from the middle school where she works (in Texas, I think):

Traneisha-L
Ezellia
Stephany
German
Doarezha
Rayon
Dacious
Xavian
Dacnel
Keywanda
Galdina
Celso
Jivantey
Hotoniel

(NB: rayon is the US name for viscose. As in the fabric.)

I'm starting to think that one of those name laws might not be a bad idea...

*tuts at newsnight*

To go from miles to kilometres you do NOT multiply by 1.069.... (it's 1.609) (I can do everything in metric now. I'm disappointed in the EU; they should have dragged us kicking and screaming into the 20th century. And 20th is not a typo.) And when Paxo was doing tomorrow's front pages, he actually showed today's Independent!
