So super proud of Harley and his pairs partner Katia. Harley is our first Indigenous Winter Olympian, and he and Katia had a great skate! Harley is from literally just down the road from us – my Mum teaches in his home suburb!
I’m just looking for someone to eat garbage floor cake with.
I love everything about this story.
Alan Alda is my spirit animal (and quite possibly my patronus)
That’s hilarious and adorable.
“The hostess of the evening had made a rum cake, and she put it on the refrigerator to cool,” Alda recalled. “The refrigerator shook, and the cake fell off the refrigerator and hit the floor.”
It was a party moment that separated the casual diners from those desperate for dessert.
“Arlene and I were the only two people who went in with spoons and ate it off the floor,” he said with a smile. “That’s how you know. When two people eat a cake off the floor, that’s it for life.”
There’s no arguing that point. In fact, Alda seems certain today’s daters could learn a thing or two from him and Arlene.
“All this matchmaking on the Internet, and they ask them questions — just toss a cake on the floor and see who goes for it,” he suggested.
New species of bat found, Niumbaha superba, and it’s adorable.
Oh wow! I’m glad people are as excited about animals as I am. Here’s some additional photos. Fun fact: this bat is so different from others that a new genus was created!
fun fact my cat & i are both blind so we accidentally run into each other sometimes, but bc im much louder than he is, when we get close to each other he chirps to warn me he’s there
