Possum in da house and weekend reading links 5 February 2011

So evidently word has spread on the critter social network about the afternoon tea and crumpets for our kitties, because yesterday this strange looking cat invited himself over.

Below are a few links to keep most anyone entertained for at least a few minutes. This week’s topics include education, manly ways to use an Altoids tin, a homeopathy investigation, a call to save the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus, and a cute Volkswagen commercial, among others.

Cheers!
