Here that I wanted to keep up with: Alianated, which I missed. Hilter's Birthday, which I missed again. And for that I hope I can be forgiven. But I was talking with this girl the other night and she made the observation that there's probably not a date that lacks the birth of an evil despot. At that point, I realized that I had missed posting Hitler's birthday cake here.

So, today, I'd like to celebrate the birthday of Catherine II of Russia, who famously
died underneathagreatahorse. Why? Because I can't offer Hitler the same pallid, cold leftovers that constitute a belated birthday wish neglected two years in a row. It's not right.

Catherine, I don't really remember if you killed a Jew or many; if you stomped Catholics and their kittens; or if you drove homosexualists to their last nerves, but this horseys for you, Catherine II of Russia, in honor of Hitler, whose birthday was yesterday.
