Best Beloved emailed this to me today. The story goes that it was posted by a Japanese student. I lurv it.

A slight diversion

welcome
Letterpress printer, bookbinder, book-arts teacher, designer, daydreamer. Also mother, wife, cat-owner and dreadfully slack friend and relative. I live in Canberra, Australia. You'll read about any and all of these things, in no particular order. Enjoy! (Serving suggestion only.)
If you'd like to know more about me and my printing adventures, check out ampersandduck.com. Visit the Duckshop, where you might find a thing or two.
a note for printers
At work I print on a Graphix cylinder proofing press and a small Korrex cylinder proofing press. At home I have a Vandercook SP20 under wraps, just waiting for a studio. If you've always wanted to find a manual for the SP20, mine is downloadable here.
booky goodness
selected cast
Best Beloved (BB): husband, does. not. read. blog., loves to cook, wants to be Ricky Gervais in the next life.
Bumblebee: 11 going on puberty, transfixed by mirrors or any shiny surface, wants to be David Tennant in his next life, or possibly George Lucas.
Mr Padge: fat cat, likes to bury his head in armpits, inner elbows, backs of knees. Purrs loudly. Now available with special curly tail!
Mr Pooter: thin cat. Evil genius. Purrs softly but digs in a sharp claw at the same time. In his next life he wants to be both President and Prime Minister of Russia.
Colonel & Lady Duck: tree-change retirees living in the glorious deep south of NSW with some chooks, a couple of cows and a very weird dog.

The phone number at the bottom is the Speaking Clock. A very good joke.
This is pretty good too.
You are so right. I didn't think it was a real thing, but it's still gold. The tip-off for me was the second photo, which is a bit too professional. If they'd stuck to just the one photo it would have been utterly believable.
And Xerxes is indeed a very special -- and smug -- dog. I bet he looks just like his owner.
Ooh, I *know* I've seen that somewhere before...
Aha! Metafilter!
