Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

US Warns Against Eating Florida Puffer Fish
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - US regulators on Monday warned Americans not to eat puffer fish caught in the Titusville, Florida, area because they may contain a naturally occurring toxin that made three people ill and can be deadly. Symptoms of the toxic poisoning can include tingling and burning in the mouth and tongue, numbness, drowsiness and incoherent speech, the Food and Drug Administration said. [...]

Incoherent speech? Apparently the fish of choice among certain politicians. Sounds like a conspiracy to me.
