Happy Birthday, Beverly!
Wishing you the happiest of days and years. And much pie.
Mom and dad are coming over to keep me company today and get some work done. Dad and I are going to do survey data analysis. Should be fun and interesting. Mom is gonna work on her quilt while we work. Should be good. I'm making yummy dinner to contribute to the day.
Sounds like a lovely way to spend a
housebound
Sunday, vw. And I am sure that they are getting the better deal with you making dinner.
Ooooh, did I remember yesterday to congratulate Cass on her leap of faith? I meant to...
Thanks!
In WTF news ... Asshat.

Seriously, do they not realize that actual people are not only involved but sitting right there??
Any firm opinions on OTC cough supressants?
They don't work for me and they make me hallucinate. I am of the opinion that they suck.
So...my Russian coworker would suggest vodka...
Frozen vodka or hot sake. I've had good luck with the sake route.
The "no darn good" was our fear. Rats.
Cassie, not for nothin, but it seems to me like restrictor plate racing is not such a good idea and maybe they should just field fewer cars.
Of all the things I can explain, the rules of restrictor plate racing is not one of them... Or the reasoning. Or the why. Or why I wasn't offered the kool-aid at least.
Sheesh... An hour. Why aren't there cars on the track? This is why I never watch these things live at the beginning. I should order me a pizza.
Cars? On a track? And when?
Are you meaning to imply that I am
watching
a race?
I am merely asking a hypothetical question in regards to the size of the grid when using restrictor plates.
I am offended, sir.
Yeah pizza. And beer too -- just embrace it.

43 cars. Same as always. Well 43 start. Significantly fewer finish.
Yeah pizza. And beer too -- just embrace it.
I don't think I can get the beer delivered. Which is a shame.
Trudy, they basically just decided recently (some study?) that OTC cough suppressants don't do jack.
Unless your counter is in a place where they allow codeine, like canada, europe, asia, australia...pretty much everywhere but the US.
So are the restrictor plates because of the track? Or do they just like to do some of each?
Oh, and bump drafting seems sorta cool.
Hot whisky with some honey and lemon.

Somewhere I saw that what the study actually shows was that it only treats the symptoms, it doesn't actually make the cough any better. Like treating the symptoms is nothing. Must've been a slow news day.
Restrictor plates are because of the tracks. On the fastest tracks, they limit the engines to slow the cars down. Which works. But it also bunches the cars up. Which leads to chain-reaction, massively multi-car accidents, aka The Big One.
Bump drafting can be cool. Two cars can go faster than one. It is also very easy to do it stupid. Which crashes people. And can kill them. So it's better to be smart about it.
BWAH! "Toasting each other" commercial was adorable!
