According to the NYT, "Lestat" is a "Musical sleeping pill".
Well, at least it's not a "Musical laxative."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just got an e-mail from "Paypal" (which I doubt) re: payment for a purchase I supposedly made for a new cell phone, which I didn't. There is a button to click to dispute. Am I being scammed, or do I click it?

Kathy, I wouldn't click it, but you can go to the PayPal site directly, maybe and contact their customer service just in case. But, yeah, don't click the button.

My car has been at the body shop since Sunday night. I called this afternoon, and they think it would be "pushing it" to get it done today.
I think I deserve a cookie for not shrieking, "THEN FUCKING PUSH IT, JACKHOLE!"
I may have a slight case of cabin fever.

OH OH OH! ita and other migraine suffers - From NPR this morning
From my perspective, if this guy really wanted to help people, not just make money for himself, he would have conducted some scientific tests of his theories before writing this book.
That's not to say that environmental triggers aren't important for migrane. There's lots of important research being done on the topic. It's just not being done by this guy. He's too busy making money pushing unproven ideas.

This has got to be a scam. I just tried to forward it to Paypal's spoof@paypal.com to check it out, and I'm getting a warning that forwarding it will result in my e-mail being verified as accurate and may result in more spam.

Am I being scammed, or do I click it?
Definitely don't click. Log in to PayPal separately and look for anything suspicious. Then you can forward the email to their spoof at paypal dot com email. I get them three or four times a month.
eta: Definitlely a scam. You could always copy the body of the email and send it in a new message, rather than forwarding. Might thwart the verification.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I have a stupid math question. I'm quite sure I have the right answer, but...
Say you have an object shaped like...okay, say you have a drum. If you're measuring the diameter of the head, that's measuring end-to-end, straight across the circle, right?
Measuring all the way around the circle would give you the circumference. The diameter is the length of a line bisecting the circle. Yes?

Yes.
And the radius is half the diameter.
