I'm telling you, cats are uniting to throw us all off. They will not be hemmed into vicious stereotypes of the "cats hate water, fetching, and mice" variety. Take this lady cat and boy mouse couple.
Extreme Pete, the hot rod dog, has some pint-sized competition on the water. They call themselves the Radical Rodents and I'll admit, they are pretty rad. Too bad my mouse traps are even radder.
Maury Povich put pickle and peach phobias on the map, but a radio show decided to put small vermin phobias (which are quite legitimate, if you ask me) to the test. I haven't a clue why this woman agreed to endure such a scare tactic...but "quiet as a mouse" certainly wasn't her coping style. Too bad the radio listeners missed out on the visual of her literally climbing the walls in terror.
A few months ago, Japanese scientists unveiled genetically modified "mutant mice" who had lost their innate fear of cats. Usually, they freak out when they see one; these mellow mice, however, just tip their hats and say "How do you do?"

Watch as ol' Wil naps, sits upright, chases mice, and reminisces about his long-lost love Daffodil. I couldn't tear myself away!
A recent study shows that deer mice are monogamous and have "superior stress tolerance and blood sugar regulation." That would make us think that for humans, a monogamous relationship would prove to offer health benefits, but what else can we learn from the animal kingdom? Here are the first five of 10 sex lessons from a recent MSNBC article and my interpretation of each one.
For 30 years, The Bookseller magazine has searched far and wide for its annual weirdest book title. In How to Avoid Huge Ships and Other Implausibly Titled Books, it has compiled some of the strangest ones to date.
