But first

Cancer danger of that night-time trip to the toilet

Thanks to Graham Murkett (somegreybloke on YouTube) for the link via Facebook.

On another note, please consider signing a petition to make it a crime to protest at military funerals (as the Westboro Baptist Church has been doing for years, blaming homosexuals for deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan). I was signer #886. Granted, they're a little out there (if the Supreme Court rules in a current case for the Church, the folks who have organised the petition want to try to amend the Constitution, which frankly isn't going to happen in this case), but...their hearts are in the right place. It's horrible to think that in your greatest time of grief some yokel gay-hater is going to show up at the funeral with pickets, shouting obscenities. It's obscene itself, and Congress should do something about it.

Okay, this is what I get for checking my Facebook page. I'm going to bed now, really. Good night (again).
