Cat Out Of Nowhere of the Day: Redditor mister_asdf, who says he just moved into a new apartment, walked into one of the rooms and saw this.
He explains: “One of our cats found a way through the chimney duct which we wallpaper’ed over.”
When I get an apartment, I want it to come with a cat. Good gimmick, am I right?
I liked it better when I didn’t know the backstory and pretended the house came with a complimentary Wall Cat.

When @garyvee raves about a wine it raises a lot of eyebrows. The 2007 Il Fiume di Lava was a relative unknown thrust into the spotlight with an episode of the Daily Grape. The story goes that Franchetti, an Italian wine producer that has his triple-digit wines routinely score into the stratosphere from the Wine Advocate, didn’t quite think his 2007 production was up to snuff.
End result? You’re essentially getting what normally retails for over $100 at around $40. That’s all well and good, but what’s it taste like?
- 2007 Il Fiume di Lava Etna Il Fiume Di Lava - Italy, Sicily, Etna DOC (5/15/2011)
Rich dark fruit with an almost an incense-like note, red licorice, a hint of leather. So much stuff going on with the nose. Wow on the palate. Big black fruit with off-the-charts concentration, but this has so much minerality, acid, tannin. Beautiful notes of leather grip your palate and lasts for what seems like forever on the finish. This is really a beautiful wine and I’m in complete agreement with Gary V on this. A steal at $35 if there ever was one. (95 points)Posted from CellarTracker
Fantastic wine that really brings old-world sensibility to new-world fruit and concentration. Bravo. Hat tip to @troutmonster for encouraging me to give it a shot.

Man Dies After Being Stabbed by Fighting Chicken -
Serious.
From @abcnewsradio:
(EARLIMART, Calif.) — A man was stabbed and killed in Earlimart. His attacker, however, wasn’t a human — it was a fighting chicken.
Authorities say the incident happened on January 30 at a venue in the vicinity of Avenue 24 and Road 128 Tulare County. Investigators say a chicken with a blade attached to its leg reportedly stabbed 35-year-old Jose Luis Ochoa in the calf. The armed rooster is believed to have been used for fighting. Authorities say Ochoa was rushed to Delano Regional Medical Center, where he later died. An autopsy report found that Ochoa died as a result of an injury to his right calf, according to a report by theBakersfield Californian.
Authorities reportedly found evidence of cockfighting at the location, however, it is unknown if a cockfight was in progress when the incident occurred.
Hostage negotiations became tedious after the first hour, so she decided to watch TV.
