I guess my previous post should say gizzard shad?
The plural of deer is deer.
The plural of shad is shad.
Sorry for that.
Flash frozen gizzard shad? The latest mass animal deaths occurring in cold Chicago
Massive and bizarre fish die-off being documented in Chicago. .. CBS in Chicago is reporting it this way:
Thousands, perhaps far more than that, of dead gizzard shad in the 3- to 5-inch range are frozen in the ice of Chicago harbors or floating around in open patches of water.
It never does come easy…

Tweet this! Twitter defends First Amendment in Wikileaks case!
Ryan Singel:
Regardless, Twitter deserves recognition for its principled upholding of the spirit of the First Amendment. It’s a shame that PayPal, Amazon, Visa, Mastercard, Bank of America and the U.S. government all failed — and continue to to fail — at their own versions of that test.

Hey there hot pants. No literally, really hot pants. A new year's party goes awry when a man's pants are set on FIRE!
Police said that at 6 a.m. on Jan. 1, the victim, 20, was asleep at the party, held on Center Mills Road, when a 23-year-old man lit his pants on fire as a prank.
The man then walked away, police said.
A witness looked in the room and saw the victim’s pants on fire — from his knee to his foot — and put it out, police said.

And the amazing Ayden kicks!!
Being a soon-to-be parent is strange.. but even stranger is watching the hands and feet of your soon-to-be son poke through your wife’s stomach..
For Tara, every day has been take your child to work day. Your active, apparently happy, or angry, baby boy in the womb.. I feel forher. The sleepless nights are getting more sleepless, as the lungs are being pushed along with any other vital organs in Ayden’s way.
The miracle of life.. it’s unstoppable. And every night around 9pm Ayden becomes unstoppable, as well.
And he’s coming. Soon. Eight months in, and Tara can’t wait. Neither can I. Of course, if we think sleepless night are sleepless now..? Wait until true sleeplessness sets in.
The smirking killer: Jared Loughner smiles in court and smirks in his mugshot photo, and displays a freshly shaved head for the courtroom.,
Happy new week.
Make it great.
