Bit o' Nifty is a free-for-all containing the opinions and
expressions of Trent Eades and Keith S. Norris, who take responsibility
(we do! really!) for whatever offensive silliness you find here, though
resemblance of any unnamed characters to persons living or dead is
coincidental. Donations in the form of stray cats will be drowned;
donations in the form of intoxicants will be consumed. If we piss you
off, c'est la vie. If you're a fellow traveler,
consider yourself among friends. The first round's on us.

Actually, I shooed the cat away, perhaps too abruptly, because it darted off, jumped up on a bookshelf, and knocked over a lamp. Irritated beyond reason, I threw the book I was holding in the general direction of the cat, missing it as I intended, but hitting, as I did not intend, the fallen lamp. Its compact fluorescent bulb broke, so, muttering hatred at the world, I spent the next 15 minutes cleaning up mercury. As if to ensure I was in a foul mood, the Fates made certain to break the spine of the book.
