Huh, my ESPN bracket for the NCAA is in the top 1% of entries and all four of my final four teams are still alive. My odds of winning may well be in the 1 in 5000 range instead of the 1 in 5,000,000 range at the start. Not exactly holding my breath, but still kinda fun.

So my check engine light came on while I was driving home from work last night. I'm just going to weep into my coffee mug now.

Actually, going by my ranking I'm in the top 0.1% of entries since there appear to be roughly 5,000,000 entries. Cool, odds are I'm mathmatically eliminated, but it doesn't tell you that.

Sorry, shrift. When mine came on it turned out to be an $80 sensor replacement. Also, you could just have gotten some bad gas or didn't screw your gas cap on tightly enough. (Or you need a new gas cap--I got one for ~$11.) So it might not be a huge thing.
My check engine light also came on after I had a cylander head replaced--the mechanics had knocked the sensor wiring out when working on other stuff. Is this the car that the mechanics wrecked? It could be a 5 minute, free tweak.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, I'm gonna whitefont this just to be safe:
Man severs own penis, throws it at officers
Before cops threw the book at him, Jakub Fik threw something unusual at them -- his penis.
Fik, 33, cut off his own penis during a Northwest Side rampage Wednesday morning. When confronted by police, Fik hurled several knives and his severed organ at the officers, police said. Officers stunned him with a Taser and took him into custody.
More possibly useful info from the article:
Dr. Greg Bales, associate professor of urology at the University of Chicago, said severed penises are uncommon but surgery usually works.
"As long as the penis is placed on ice and reattached within a few hours, the success is usually pretty good," Bales said.

Well, I'm ready to cry because I had my car in for that last week. And they replaced the gas cap. (And then they crashed my car.)
So the error got cleared last Friday. I didn't get gas yesterday. By all rights, I should take it back to the garage that worked on it and demand they check it again since it's been less than a week, but I don't really want to because they crashed my car.
It's probably the same error, but I'm supposed to go to Chicago this weekend, and this crap is stressing me out.
