Good recommendations. It's actually next week, and I will make time!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

If it's the same group as was mentioned in that blog, they're going to be pissed at being "outed". "How did the evil children find us!"

You should never leave me alone with a plugged drain and tools.
Just pulled out the trap.
Nope. Not the problem.

Oh lori, you should. Waiting in line, I read a prologue from her, detailing who he was to her (namely, goofy dad) and...I've also read reviews of it and it just sounds like such an interesting view of him.
I love Feynman. He was an amazing person. I briefly thought about going into physics after reading his book, but then I realized that he made physics interesting and versatile, not the other way around. SYJMF is one of my favorite books.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Blogs are obviously a tool of Satan.

I love Feynman.
I have the book Genius sitting on my desk right now. The intro about his childhood is just magic.

But the bit where EW is actually fact checking a Scientology story, and I wonder if they're going to publish the results?
I think it was basically just the bit you quoted, ita. It was part of the interview with Cruise in this week's edition.
So. $1200. I didn't have heart to ask if that was on top of the $500 for just replacing the starter. I get past $1k and I stop noticing the hundreds till it hits $2k.
Eeek. It feels like our car is always in the shop since my accident last year, so I know what the sticker shock is like. I'm so glad your parents were able to help out.
Congratulations Lyra Jane! Are there any details you can share?
Sure -- sorry for the cryptic, I was just logging on for a sec before lunch. I'll be editing a newsletter and otherwise providing writerly support in the publications division of a medical trade association. And the pay and the people are both very nice, so I'm excited.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
There's a man down the hall from me who is taking photos of one section of our library. (I think he was hired by the firm; he has professional looking equipment at any rate.)
He seems to have decided that some of the books weren't worthy of being photographed, since they are in a pile on the floor.
I'm torn between feeling sorry for the books and irratated because they are out of order.
There may just be a reason I became a librarian.
