ita, the E600 that msbelle linked to is usually available at Michael's. I think that Bourget Bros. in Santa Monica carries it too, but I dunno if they have a retail store any more (it's been a long time since I could do any beadwork).
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think that Bourget Bros. in Santa Monica carries it too
I have never heard of them. Will google. Okay, they are no more. Sad for a store I never knew...
Looks like there's a Michaels in Santa Monica. Score!
And now to nap.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I have been on the lookout for a scrubber with a long handle and haven't seen one. Alas.
You could use a toilet scrubber that you just NEVER EVER NEVERNONEVEREVERNEVERNEVERNEVER stick in the toilet.

Hivemind query: do you know what the word "comparanda" means? Do you find it odd? I got a phone call from a colleague asking me what it meant after I used it in a document, and I'm wondering which of us is out of step.
Unrelatedly, is it FAIR that we should be interviewing 10 candidates for 2 internships next week? Like I don't have anything to do with my time!

Never heard it before, not quite sure what it would mean. I first assumed it was spanish.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Comparanda I would guess at on the similar example of corrigenda: items to compare. (Corrigenda are items to correct.)
Latin, baby!
The number of people who don't even understand when I say "indices" instead of "indexes" is kind of freaky to me. I didn't even take Latin as a language; you just pick this stuff up when you work with books. Or, some people do. I had to explain what recto and verso mean the other day.

I have no idea what comparanda are, but I may have been able to noodle it out by context. I, too thought it was Spanish.

Also, neither my Spanish nor English dictionary recognizes comparanda.
