What's mildly amusing you today?

He was called Tom.

I had a long lived funfair goldfish too. I was studying World Powers of the 20th century at the time. Our cat Tinker ate Mao, rather appropriately. But Ho Chi Minh lived for years . With eyes. He was my first minion. I trained him to swim into my hand so I could clean his tank. The net spooked him. Then Muffin ran off with it anyway. The net, not the dictator .

Somebody is drunk at Google maps. I started to report all the mistakes I found in this neighborhood in North Arlington, but it would have been much easier to draw a picture rather than use their push pin method of reporting mistakes. So I just commented that the whole neighborhood is wrong.

Everything in pink was drawn (and labeled!)by a drunk intern and doesn't exist in the real world. Everything in red is in the real world, but not on their map.

They have fixed a major thoroughfare since I saw these mistakes last night. That one was finny, because there was no road on the map, but if you turned on traffic, it showed a green traffic band going through the woods.
