How to tell if your cat is plotting to kill you

2011-02-17T08:11:00.000-05:00

I'll let you all know, my school semester is speeding up so I don't have as much time for the blog as I'd like. Therefore, on top of maybe not being able to post every day, I don't have a ton of time to find graphics that always link back to the day before. Therefore, I give you an info-graphic showing you how to know if your cat is trying to kill you.

Coming off of Valentine's, I'd like to post a graphic about relationships. Specifically, what not to do to your significant other. Through personal experience, I'd suggest steering away from all of these.

I would have to agree with all those of you who said it was stupid to over-drink, though I would also agree that drinking in and of itself isn't all that bad. However, for those of you who avoid alcohol all together, have some Coke.
