Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Happy Off Day for those of you who have it off.
Sophia, I love the Chrismukkah album; I only wish it had songs from last years Chrismukkah episode too.
I'm currently scrambling to find a slide projector before January 3rd when my class starts (the one where I need slides).
Ugh.
Slide projectors are so 1970s and I can't find one at my school to use and I don't want to buy one. Nor do we have a scanner that can scan slides.
ARGH.
Aieee. Poor flea. I was listening to the description of Ohio getting dumped on (on the radio) and thinking to myself, Self, is it weird to call up a family-in-law you don't know at all, just to make sure that they have properly retrieved your kin? And is it kosher to do so from one's work telephone?
Did the snowsuit/oranges bag have a name & address on it? They might find it and call. Or, go back to the airport early and check lost and found.
Okay, there is the remote possibility that they found the suitcase and blew it up. But, I bet not.
Ice storms are not of the good. It doesn't really matter how many snow plows there are in that situation.
Well, it does if the plows salt the fuck out of everything. But even then, you never know when you'll hit an icy patch. Once I was driving to Madison from Chicago (on 90) during a storm. The roads were fine in IL, but as soon as I crossed the state line into Wisconsin the roads suddenly were icy as hell, and there were about a half-dozen cars in the ditch just in the first few miles of Wisconsin highway. An SUV spun out right in front of me and slid into the ditch backwards.

Ooh, remember the slide projector thingies where you played an audio tape, and the tape would beep and the slide projector would automatically move to the next slide? Those were cool.
Kat-- do you know any professors? For some reason, at my Uni, the professors always seem to come up with a slide projector somehow when I cannot find one for them.
I am thinking of trying to hunt up my VCD of last year's Christmakkuh episode to watch... one of my favorites,because I ADORE the Summer as well as the Seth and she is so adorable n the ep.

I had the same experience driving from near Madison to Cleveland. Rain started around Chicago, ice near Gary. Somewhere around Toledo, we crossed a warm front and switched over to pea-soup fog. It was a vast improvement.
WAH! Don't wanna go to work!!!!!
I think they do less salting in Wisconsin in order to protect the environment.
I grew up in a town with a large reservior, and they never salted.
I'm sorry Allyson (also flea about the ice storm! Gah!)
I am just so happy I didn't have to go to work, as yesterdya had me searching for dishwasher sized boxes for my boss to wrap her children's gifts in as well as building a database for registrations. My job is wierd!
