Moon rabbit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Moon rabbit, also called the Jade Rabbit, is a rabbit that lives on the moon in East Asian folklore. The legends about the moon rabbit are based on the traditional pareidolia that identifies the markings of the moon as a rabbit pounding in a mortar. In Chinese folklore, it is often portrayed as a companion of the moon goddess Chang'e, constantly pounding the elixir of life for her; but in Japanese and Korean versions it is just pounding mochi or tteok.

cool, google has implemented their bookmarks' panel as a function to all searches done when logged in. This is a great improvement for someone as on the go as me!
(simple way to notice this: if you have a google account, next time you do a search, next to the title of the queried entries, you'll see a hollow star; if you click it, it becomes full and emboldened yellow; you now have a new handy-dandy bookmark! Which can be accessed wherever you are so long as you log into your google account. Yay!).

Each day when driven to pre-school, short on time, my mother and I would chant, "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date..."

my mouse is disappearing, so I'm off to nighty-land. 1956
