Happy Monday, kittens! It’s a good day, as long as you’re not a French Muslim extremist, a formerly-confidential informant, an indicted but not yet convicted hacker, or a Lizard Squaddie. Why?

Don’t worry; you, me, and the coffee pot are in the free and clear and ready to get a jump on the week. Let’s roll!
