contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Tsu Dho Nimh) — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 20:48:26 EDT

What do an atheist family's children do for Passover? If the children are lucky, there will be a nearby observant Jewish family with "chametz" that is also in need of a "Passover goy".

This rescue team is world-class. It's the biggest news story of the day, maybe the year, and they are as calm and methodical as if they were directing traffic on a village side street.

Ground Zero Mosque, or Who Put the "But" in the First Amendment?

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Tsu Dho Nimh) — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 12:44:25 EDT

"The First Amendment protects freedom of religion. Senator Reid respects that, but thinks that the mosque should be built someplace else." The "but, but, but" sputtering makes the Repugnicans and the Damnocrats sound like a motorboat exhibit.

Taming Feral Adult Cats: My Own Technique

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Tsu Dho Nimh) — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 15:19:05 EDT

A feral cat won't magically know your intentions are good and leap into your lap in a magical moment of cross-species bonding. It takes self-control and time while you let the cat make all the moves.

Lets give Mexico some long-overdue "aplauso" for their fast response when disaster hits a nearby country. The ship in the picture also helped Mississippi after Katrina.

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Tsu Dho Nimh) — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 07:53:24 EDT

Like "bad dogs", most "mean cats" are that way because of the way humans treated them, or are acting like cats and the human interprets the behavior as "mean".
