* Women: did you know that your body produces thousands of potentially life saving cells each month and your just blithely disposing of them? Did you also know that there is clearly a marketing opportunity in pretty much everything? The latest piece of weird junk mail I got was for C'elle. You just have to visit the site to get the full impact. Prepare yourself for the jaw-dropping, um, jaw-droppingness of it.

Small Mooch update - I get the feeling the end is nigh. His clever little brain is still in there but his body is just falling apart.

Hope for the best, I guess -- but that might just be letting him go.
