Jesse, I got that e-mail from my uncle just now.
But -- how can it be "once in a lifetime"? What about 01:02:03 PM?
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.

That's 13 hundred hours, sailor.
What about 01:02:03 PM?
I suspect that the timestamp prescriptivists would say it doesn't count because it's really 13:02:03. Feel free to be all handwavey and @@ at them.
Oh, you know what? Whenever I see a time with a colon in it (01:02, for instance), I assume it's non-military time. It has to be colon-free for me to even grasp that it's military time.
Well, that makes sense, then.
Jesse H: '80s Fashion Rainbow and Prescriptivist Cowgirl
This just in: I learned during the Institute seminar today that there exists a Human Foamy Virus.
I leave the symptoms of infection to the Buffistas' collective imagination.
Rabies?
My division head sent out the time thing. And the most anal retentive literalist (not me) replied with the variants and 100 years thing. Which I so expected him to do. He catches every typo, every grammar error. He really is wasted as a scientist.
I'm watching Thief.
Hmm.
Interesting.
I've also cleaned my fridge.
Less interesting.
The guy who dumped his meeting on me and took a powder emailed me to ask what this rescheduled meeting was about and if he needed to come.
Completely uninteresting.
Dude! Michelle Trachtenberg is on House tonight!
Is that the Braugher (his toddler hit my knees!) show? It sounded interesting in local reviews (mind you, the reviewers around here worship Braugher as a god for Homicide.)
I thought it a bit weird that while set in post-Katrina New Orleans, it was largely filmed in Shreveport. I get the conveniences factor, it just seems weird to stage the mess elsewhere so soon.
