Dij has just brought in his second dead Robin of the day.
In addition, herself is dead-set against my idea to use them for 3D Christmas cards, along with a little glitter and some glue. Is that fair, I ask you?
Anyway, with a shortage of Robins, we'll have to cancel either Christmas or Batman ...

Would \Batman be the Es-caped Crusader?
Just getting my coat now ...

Surprisingly, he has brought in bats - Pipistrelles - but thankfully he hasn't killed any that we know of and we've been able to release them unharmed (to the best of our knowledge; they flew off).
I'm guessing that the combination of "flying" and "mouse-like" just really excites him!

It IS fair, and I started thinking, 'taxidermy', but yes, I think the response would be 'get stuffed'

If OG works quickly, he could use them as templates for 3D printing of a robin. 
(I just hope the weather stays cool)

I got that one straight away, but let it go - pity I can't get the CCC's at all

Keep them in your car. Then when someone annoys you while driving, you can really flip them the bird...

...or cancel Christopher (which may have been what you meant in your last sentence)

No way! Pooh would be most upset.

Now honestly, if the cancellation also means that those horrid TV binges would also be cancelled I'd call it a great deal, indeed.
I wouldn't really miss the short-term (totally insincere) pleasantries from people who'd step over your if you fell down in front of them (&etc.).
OK - I'll be a bit positive: how about if everyone takes that pretense of brotherly love they reserve for the latter half of December and spread it thinly throughout the year - you know - actually make the world a little nicer. Furthermore, if it's all year round, it's not necessary to consider it insincere and contrived - just an improvement in life.
Baaaah !

Harmless? 
We have spiders native to Britain that are certainly not that!

My next door neighbour was off work for three months a year ago when she was bitten by a spider. In Wales! (A "False Widow", they think).

That's spiders for you - their PR is obviously better than the reality!

xkcd OTD: Scientist Tech Help[^]
So ... the Alt Text references a tool to do that: convert a chart image to data plots, called WebPlotDigitizer
So of course I have to google it, because he can be quite subtle in his jokes, can Randal.
Aaaaaand ... it's a real thing: WebPlotDigitizer - Extract data from plots, images, and maps[^], and it's free, it's open source, and ... it's shown up a bug in Codeproject graphing. 
Other than that, it works, and pretty damn well! 
But I hate it when he does that ... I'm sure I'll spend entirely too much time playing with it!
