Apparently we needed a pet pic, at least according to the last comments section. So here you go:
Please remember this picture when you see 20 lb Lily next to 22 lb Steve and want to call Steve fat. He’s not fat. He’s massive. He’s magnificent.

Were you ever able to get Tunch and Lily like that? I remember the first shots of them laying back to back.

Welcome news:With little fanfare, Iran has taken faster steps than required to comply with an interim nuclear deal that substantially limits its capacity to make a nuclear weapon.
[snip]
According to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Iran has completely diluted half its stockpile of 20 percent enriched uranium to lower levels. It has also converted more than half the remaining stockpile for use as nuclear fuel – rendering it almost useless for any weapon application.
That means Iran has cut by some 75 percent a stockpile that stood just above 200 kilograms in January. That was already below the 250 kilograms necessary to make a single nuclear device if enriched further to above 90 percent purity. The details of the monthly IAEA update were reported by the Associated Press and Reuters from Vienna, though the report has not yet been made public. Source

I saw your boy Edward Snowden had a photo op with Putin today after playing sock puppet for him on Russian state television.

Your photo skills have gone retrograde. Steve is magnificent, but the fuzzy is too fuzzy. Also, too, someone asked if I’d like a new born kitten from a feral cat litter. The idea of a pine tree tail little fuzzikins is strangely appealing.

I’m sure somebody else has this already, but Gabriel Garcia Marquez straight up died and shit, so let’s all read his most famous story.

I’ve gotten this time to repost things from the past. Rewacthing many of the Special Comments.

I know you might not all read/listen to what I posted. He ends with a quote from Murrow. Well Edward R Murrow:
He was a rock star!

My young cat Ocean is settling in nice to the new home, relaxing on the bed and enjoying better window views.
Her kitteh Mal – the one of the litter I kept, the other five were dropped off at the Lakeland SPCA and one (Inara) may already be adopted out – is a furball of energy, attacking every powercord like they’re stringy toys.

Our longhair Fiona is a good-sized kitty and dwarfs our other shorthair cat, Gracie. Fiona weighs twelve pounds and is a chunk, so I cannot imagine another ten pounds on her.
But Steve, he’s awesome.
p.a.
He’s huge. He’s nationwide.

What’s this he’s-not-fat jibberjabber? My dad had a cat like Steve that was so big he tangled with the raccoons at night. I have a cat now that’s a little overweight but she’s also just big. Two of my cats were over 20 lbs. Sometimes cats are big now that we feed them more nutritious foods and take better care of them.

Riley says, “Hey.”

I can attest to Steve being massive and magnificent, but he is also a little fat.

Steve isn’t fat like Tunch was but he is mighty ‘big boned’ if you know what I mean.
RoonieRoo
I love you John. I really do. But Steve is overweight. Period. I dare you to get your vet to tell you he is not overweight. I double-cat dare you.

@Tommy: The pride of my and YellowJournalism’s school, Washington State University. They actually teach real journalism there, but it seems like that doesn’t get you too far this day and age.

@Seth: Hi Seth! Love it when the siblings show up.
