god I do love mustelids:

In an admission that the slick-furred creatures refuse to respect boundaries imposed by man, authorities want to officially abandon their otter-relocation policy.

I would love to see a documentary made about that one otter, Phoky.

I bought a Creative Zen Sleek last night. I already love it--I had to make myself stop playing with it last night and go to sleep. Of course this isn't a feature unique to my mp3 player, but I love that I can make playlists of potential dance sets and then listen to them intensively without wasting a cd on burning a set that I then decide doesn't really work. Also, it is indeed sleek and cute. I have started calling it my Sleeth, which really makes no sense as it doesn't look like a sleeth and I'm not a World Tree gamer, but because I read a ZiRi's journal, I know the word and now it has stuck. It beats calling it "my not iPod."

The word of the day is indefatigable. Because if I repeat it often enough, maybe it will be an accurate descriptor and I will make it through to the end of Seven Sunless Days' set at Emergenza tonight.

My favorite part of the story:

Biologists had thought the otters would stay near San Nicholas, which has plenty of food and is surrounded by deep water that is hard to swim across. Even if the otters wanted to leave, it seemed improbable that they had the navigation skills to do it - especially since they were taken to the island by plane.

"We flew 'em out there," Sanders said, "although we didn't blindfold them."

On indefatigable:

I never heard this word until I saw the chronicles of Horatio Hornblower (by C.S. Lewis) on A&E. It was the name of the first ship he served on. This is an AMAZING series, btw. I caught a few episodes on A&E and it was instantly obsvious I had to have the entire series. God that is good TV. You can get it by going to A&E's website. Very little TV is as good as this. Dare I say - It is on par with Joss Whedon's finest moments. Go buy it TODAY!!!
