"@LastVigilante: There are mail order services that you can use that you can all sorts of live insects from. Also, if you're the hobbyist-type, you can try your hand at insect-rearing."

"@dry-roasted-peanuts: That's true!Without any sense of historical irony whatsoever - if only they had cats living in the warehouse, as were the same reasons and conditions that felines were originally domesticated - then they wouldn't have had the rodent and bird problem in a warehouse full of CAT FOOD in the first place!"

"@failurate: No one would say this is Dumbya Bush's fault directly, but cutting the budget of food inspectors and appointing industry insiders to oversee the companies where they were once (and will again be) employed and appointing corporate-friendly judges and appointing corporate-friendly district attorneys and fighting pro-consumer legislation and pro-consumer regulations while helping to pass industry-friendly legislation and shareholder-friendly deregulations does add to the "Bush's fault" column."

"I buy my six month's worth of pet food at a time in case of a recall since it usually takes a month or two for a recall to be made public, and I won't even have opened the package. I tape the receipt to the bag and store it until needed. It's really the only way to protect your best friends."

"@ChuckECheese: I'd often wondered why they just don't make cat food out of mice - throw in a few insects and the occasional bird, maybe some extra vitamins..."

"I think the aspects of the Robotech graphic novel should be incorporated into the film. For those who haven't read it, it's the story of the first group to venture into the SDF-1 after it's crashed onto Macross Island, led by Roy."

"@Bladefist: While I agree that the Fed Chairman* normally has a greater impact on currency than the sitting US president, the policies of THIS president in particular, so bafflingly numerous, so blatantly corrupt and so wholly disastrous, have torpedoed the USD. With all due respect, this has been so well documented that to believe otherwise at this point is to venture into the realm of delusions. It's unfortunate that the graph does not extend further back in time to 2002."

"Holy sh*t! ...so here I am at the "review & submit" stage of purchasing a hp hdx and seeing the empty box for the coupon code, I think to myself, "Hmmm, I wonder if consumerist has any coupon codes for an hp notebook?" and this article is right there under the search bar. I'm assuming that the hdx is not part of the lawsuit since it is so new."
