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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am tired for no good reason, stressed out about school, and hate my job. But actually, I'm great!

I went and saw Colbert tape tonight, which was very funny.

Now tagless for your comfort.

DH is reading his copy of Contingencies. Why, yes, actuaries have their own magazine. It's filled with some interesting tidbits he shared.

1. An Association for Insurance Commissioners was set to have a conference in September. In New Orleans. They opted to cancel it.

2. The Microsoft ad with the Crime Fighting Actuary Who Always Gets the Girl was mentioned.

3. There's a math puzzle at the back.

What's funny is that without seeing Alias yet, and being unspoiled, and only starting to watch this year, I could still guess what was in sumi's whitefont.

Ooh, I have a medical question, kinda -- I have what I guess is a small stye on the bottom edge of my eye. Is that a hot washcloth situation?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

In Australia it's called Actuary Australia. And people say actuaries have no imagination! My favourite quote from said magazine: "A special mention must go to Dermot Balson for his completely inappropriate contribution about nuns."

Well, Jesse, I'm sure you've noticed our (craxy Alias fans) white-fonted posts from BEFORE you started watching.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Rio, I'm glad you're getting better, and glad you stopped by.

Aurelia, I've seen it, but I had to look for it, and suddenly it was too much work to flip through, so I checked US Weekly to see who'd gotten pregnant recently. Good luck to them with the change, and all.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Rio, I'm glad you're getting better, and glad you stopped by.

OH OH me too. HI RIO!

People who think actuaries aren't funny are CRAXY!
