Furries Vs. Klingons Bowl-a-thon

For some reason this makes me inordinately happy: This weekend in Atlanta, there is a bowling tournament between Furries and Klingons. It's just like the Internet manifested in to reality! But of course, this raises an awkward question: which groups do the targs join? Their site mentions they are going to a meal afterwards. I would love to be able to watch their arrival... I wonder if anybody will try to substitute mayo for gagh?

Holy %$*&!

Doctors were performing surgery on a man in Canada, and discovered his blood was not red, but dark green! Apparently, this is because of migraine medication which caused his blood to absorb sulfur as well as oxygen (apparently there's a term for it: sulfhaemoglobinaemia.) Also strange, the reason he was having surgery was not because of his green blood, but because he fell asleep sitting and was at risk of losing his legs altogether. Man, talk about a bad day for that guy. At least he is doing alright now.
