Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Well, there is Aaron, although my only problem with that name is that it's hard to distinguish between "Aaron" and "Erin". But that's just me.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Love doing research and coming across sentences like this:

It is often said that over 50% of the gross national product of the U.S.A. is related to welding in one way or another.

If I had a dime...

In completely unrelated news, does anyone know the difference, if there is one, between a welding rod and an electrode used in arc welding?

I believe welding rod is an actual wire consumed in the production of the weld. But I only watch welding, I do not commit welding in any way.

An electrode used in arc welding can be either consumable welding rod also serving as electrode or non-consumable electrode only.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yay for Isaac James! Good name.

Also curious, though - for why you wanna know?

Lori's response is all blah blah blah welding blah blah blah to me.

Which of course puts me in a Flashdance state of mind.
