I really need to go to the gym. But it's gross and rainy out. I may go have scotch and watch Bleak House instead...
It's that kind of a day, I think, at least around here. I was just thinking I would stop at the store on the way home and get chili or mac and cheese, plus make sure I have hot toddy makings. Curling up on the couch all night seems highly appropriate.
OOH! Also, I am pretty sure I hit the beginning of the good part of Farscape, since I stayed up far too late watching it last night, and now want to see the rest NOW!
Damn, I missed the whole decapitation discussion.
I think being decapitated would be the weirdest thing. Assuming that your head landed facing the right way (or you were decapitated by someone who thoughtfully oriented your head before you died) you'd be all, "Huh, I never saw my body from this perspective before...."
In non-decapitation news:
Depending on three different flight scenarios, Hocking and Foster found that airline passengers in three different scenarios were 5, 23, or 113 times more likely to catch a cold than if they had not flown at all!
...
The most logical reason for infections would seem to be the limited amount of cabin air shared by the passengers. But Hocking, Foster and other scientists have found this is only one factor. The very low humidity in an airplane seems to be much more important.
...
Very dry air dries up the mucous system that captures and expels bacteria and viruses from our noses. This may be a key reason why airplane passengers catch more colds.

So, another reason to be excited when the Boeing 787 arrives, as increased cabin humidity will be one of its features.

loved that security rating thing
Trudy! I find myself wondering, when was the last time your tagline did not reference the hoors?
When did the last House air?
When did the last House air?
You're asking the Australian?
Trudy, way the Hell too long (although I've been watching Season 1). I think it's new next week, though

Ever want to relax on a tropical beach while 747's fly ten feet over your head? [link] The photos look so weird that one might think they're Photoshopped, but they're not.
Video: [link] Freaky - it looks like the 747 is gonna fly right into the camera.
