Still going...

mishadayI hadn't even taken off my jacket this morning when the phone started ringing, so I sort of need to hit the ground running. Still catching up on my friend's page, and the question thing is looking really cool.
I thought this looked funny/interesting, from one of Seattle's weekly papers, the Stranger:
Today Last Days received an absolutely galling Hot Tip from that bastion of good-natured smut, Toys in Babeland. Earlier this week, the ladies at Toys received their very own cease-and-desist letter from the most litigious band in rock, Metallica. Seems the notoriously fussy metal band is none too happy about Toys' use of the name "Metallica" for one of their stainless-steel vibrators; in a letter dated May 6, Metallica's lawyer ordered Toys to stop using the name--and to deliver all remaining Metallica vibrators to the band immediately. (Nice try, schmucks.) For now, the store has renamed its controversial toy "the Heavy Metal Vibe"; here's hoping they retaliate by renaming their ugliest buttplug "the Lars Ulrich."
Hee. I am amused. Off to play with computers!
