Tongue Parasites and Hairless Dogs

The parasite, Cymothoa exigua, attached itself to the host fish's tongue and snacked on it to the point where it replaced the missing part of the tongue. The parasite, which does not harm humans, only appears to feed on snapper, Luttjanus guttatus.Quoted from: Discovery Channel :: News :: Fish Tongue-Eating Parasite Spreading?

And I wanted to point Paul to a page about hypoallergenic dogs.

That's a decent link from a dog-fan perspective -- complete with doofy dog themed design. I loves it. And here are some specific hairless breeds:

Chinese Crested

(these are so ugly you gotta love them)

American hairless Terrier

(these don't really look ugly at all -- in fact, from a distance they look like short hair Jack Russels)

Peruvian Hairless Orchid

(these look pretty cool and seem decent sized - little dogs are actually cats in dog suits)

Xoloitzcuintli

(come on- there's some serious clout here -- your dog is of a breed nobody else can pronounce or spell and it has a mohawk. fucking bad ass)

So see, Paul -- you could learn to love a doggie, too. It might have to be a freaky weird doggie, but that's OK. If you an pull some strings with your mob friends to get me a permanent job in town, then I promise I'll get you a hypoallergenic dog so you can enjoy the benefits of doggie companionship.

And I could have listed a bunch of hairless cats, but I'm lazy and don't like cats as much.

World of Warcraft Sex

From the sublime to the ridiculous. This comes from a funny post about a dwarf stumbling upon some hot P2P action in World of Warcraft.

Out of sheer boredom and the need to do a little PvP research, I recently found myself exploring the Deeprun Tram on a local roleplaying server. With exploration under way, I trekked deep within the confines of the tram and found something rather unusual. What was this standing before me? Two naked night elves of course.

HELP Katrina relief efforts - FREE, EASY

Katrina People Finder Voluteer page:

Look, if you can make a post on (e:strip), you can help with the Katrina People Finder Volunteer effort. The goal of the project is to consolidate postings on disparate disucssion forums all over the web into a single database of people affected by the hurricane. This project is working to standardize the data people post on these discussion boards so that it can be integrated with the FEMA and Red Cross databases.

Im a real skeptic at heart, but I think this is a good way to be effective from the Internet. Aside from giving cash to one of the aid agencies involved in relief efforts, this is probably the best thing you can do from your computer. Go to the Katrina People Finder Volunteer homepage and follow the directions to claim and start converting a chunk of discussion group postings. The project is based on a Wiki, so all you have to do is sign up for an account and then mark an assignment as CLAIMED.

Once you've claimed your chunk of raw data, you'll have to read through the posts, often left by obviously frantic loved ones, and dilligently enter data about people -- missing, found and otherwise. Without the efforts of loads of individuals converting this stuff into a standardized database, lots of folks will be left wondering about their loved ones until who knows when. Being able to match people up with friends and family is probably one of the best things relief agencies can do to get people started rebuilding their lives. And I'm not even mentioning the various utilities of just making a record of known people affected by the hurricane -- who knows when or if access to public records is going to be restored. And companies like Dell and SUN are setting up computer banks in relief shelters this week to allow survivors Internet access.

I just did a page full of entries in an hour. I plan to do more as I get time. Give up a couple hours of web browsing to help out and we can insure that there will be a functional data supply when the computer banks go live.

I'm looking at you, (e:DCoffee) and (e:Jason) and (e:Paul) and (e:MetalPeter) and (e:UncutSaniflush)
