Oh no! What if it pops!?

I'll just wait here quietly for Doonesbury to address this.

Man, David Letterman has aged a bit...

Catmint condition?

Also blunt force trauma, choking, or a fatal dose of ennui through observing the dissipation of a once solid object into insubstantiality and analogizing it to the ephemeral nature of the mark one leaves on the world.

I suppose hypothermia, frostbite, impalement (if pointy), and crushing (if there were enough of it) could also be ways that one could meet their demise via dry ice.

This bird seems "great" and all, but I wanna see the Pretty Good Egret or the Needs Improvement Egret for a proper comparison.

So the 500 lb. trailer park resident in the motor-scooter at Walmart sucking down 64 oz. Diet Cokes is about to hit the jackpot? Color me impressed.

I can see how the cartoon is inappropriate. A Star of David references Judaism as a whole. It paints an entire religion as the perpetrators of bad acts that can only reasonably be laid at the feet of Netanyahu's Israeli government. An Israeli flag might be more appropriate, but it would still be painting ordinary Israeli citizens with too broad of a brush.

On the flip side, the military controlled by Nethanyahu's government seems to be painting all Gaza citizens as targets, regardless of affiliation with Hamas or lack thereof. This stance sucks and is evil.

Killing innocent people like Hamas and Israel have is a clear ethical failure. Fomenting culture-wide hatred of a group in a way that encourages future killing of innocent people like Hamas and Israel have is also an ethical failure.

Harvard was right to condemn the cartoon, but there is no real good guy here.

There have been some impressive (and scary) temperature records set in the past couple weeks. That said, there are parts of Canada that are currently on fire that likely have a daily temperature in the hundreds of degrees. Clearly that doesn't count for any sort of temperature record. What I'm wondering is: where's the dividing line? How far away from a big fire do you have to be to record a valid daily temperature?
