Aliens Abduct Haggis

This is a well-known hazard in the modern world, although there is no cure for it. The best thing to do is to simply prepare yourself  by watching the reality TV show 'So You Think You Want to be Abducted by Aliens!', and by reading case histories in the tabloids while waiting in line at the pharmacist or supermarket.

Conventional weapons won't help you, however aliens are afraid of vegetables, so you should make sure to arm yourself with a rutabaga or turnip before leaving your domicile in the mornings, assuming you ever actually leave your domicile.

I've been looking at this picture of a German chocolate cake; I must have it--the cake, I mean, not the picture. It comes from this website, which features pictures of other enticing desserts--consider yourselves warned.

Of course, you could always eat this chocolate and ice cream concoction instead. It was posted on the eskimo.com blog, which features some of the author's favorite foods.

I'm listening to an opera on the radio. I don't understand a word of it.

Peace, order, and good government.
