death in a can and big cats

Today I learned that tuna will kill you, in that Consumer Reports recently measured a higher mercury content in cans and pouches of tuna than the FDA did between 2002 and 2004, so it's definitely coming to get us. (I'm not very concerned about it because I stopped tolerating canned tuna five years ago, so it doesn't really look like food anymore.)

Also, there are a couple of bobcats who live around here, and since we moved the couch relative to one window, we've finally seen one -- or today we saw two -- while the neighbors have been seeing at least one bobcat around here for years. So couch position is more important than you would expect in wildlife viewing. Also, bobcats here are thinner than I was used to seeing in pictures; they look like big, elongated house cats.
