Also, just learned that the plural of dwarf is not dwarves.

I reread the story - not because I doubted you, but because whenever you read a Grimm tale, there are levels of perversity and horror that are always shocking. But I couldn't find a reference to the burying alive...

Regardless, the Witch laughs it off, confident that the dwarfs will think Snow White is dead and they'll bury her alive and making her unable to receive a kiss.

The door flew open, in he ran,
The great, long, red-legged scissor-man.
Oh! children, see! the tailor's come
And caught out little Suck-a-Thumb.
Snip! Snap! Snip! the scissors go;
And Conrad cries out "Oh! Oh! Oh!"
Snip! Snap! Snip! They go so fast,
That both his thumbs are off at last.

After endless planning and meetings, we commenced project Isabella…In under a year, through an aerial attack [by helicopter], we ended up wiping out 90 percent of the goats on Isabela. But to give an example of the nature of this business, its relatively easy to remove 90 percent of a goat population from an island. As they become rarer and rarer, they become harder to detect. The become educated. So the goats start hiding. You end up flying around in an expensive helicopter not finding any goats.

So the way we deal with that is an interesting technique called Judas goats. Goats are gregarious and like being in groups. They’re herd animals. The technique we would use was you fire up the helicopter, capture goats live, take them back to base camp, unload them, put a radio collar on them, and then throw them back on the island. Instinctively, that goat will go find other goats. A week, two weeks go by. You fire up the helicopter and…start tracking the Judas goats until you spot it with other goats. And then everyone gets shot except the Judas goat. And then they do it again. Every two weeks for a year.

That’s how Isabela island went from 90 percent to 99 percent goat free. The last few goats were the Judas goats, which had been sterilized. For their trouble, they were allowed to live to the end of their days on the island (although one imagines the effect of such repeated trauma).

At $5 a pizza, they basically are paying you to eat there.

It's not the greatest, but it is the greatest deal.

I'd rather have Little Caesars than Papa Johns anyday

I got a new car. The car is sending me emails saying that I left it unlocked. It is in my fucking garage...
