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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

i'd want to see them because I would think it's adult and responsible to look at them and so I should, but not because I actually want to see them, if you know what I mean.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

(So hey, beth, you were right about the SO! He does have strep. A middle of the night ER visit diagnosed him with laryngitis/pharyngitis triggered by recurring strep and possibly also mono. Poor boy!

But he's got his shot and feeling much better already. Turns out he was part of the error margin for strep tests the last time.)

Our roommate doesn't ask to see the bills. But then, he doesn't pay the bills, either, so not actually comparable.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Well, I 'm sorry he has strep, but glad it was finally diagnosed. It can be cured, ya know.

The only bill I would want to see is the phone bill, and only if I actually use it for long distance stuff.

go ,go, Mr. kitty!

and I might be curious about the gas/electic bill if it suddely jumped- but more because I'd want it to go down.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Glad the SO is getting strep treatment, Liese.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

So at 1am, I just decided to stay awake. The house is pretty darn clean (although I did not vaccuum, since that would have been evil to neighbors). Now am waiting to board plane and have free wireless (YAY! JetBlue). I plan to crash as soon as I am in my seat.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Hi, msbelle! It's 6 am, and I'm going to work.

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

It's 6 am. To maintain the Tom balance, I'm not going to work.

ION, some complete nonsense: [link]

UNIVERSE = 113, not a particularly significant number, or at least not one I recognize. On the other hand...

MULTIVERSE = 144

Boom! Now we're seeing the suggestion of light and multiverse combined.

Then I wondered how many dimensions are there to this Multiverse? Some quantum physicists have speculated possibly 10 or more. "More" may be the operative word here. Maybe much more:

TWENTY THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED THIRTY SIX DIMENSIONS = 621

SIX TWO ONE = 144

20,736 = 144 squared.

Perhaps at this point things are coming into focus.

Perhaps... except, not.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Um, in the Spring, isn't shedding generally caused by warmer weather??

Telling from the ever increasing piles of dog hair in my house, yes.

Art Crawl!!!

I've seen the cat food ads suggesting the same thing. Do people fall for this?

BTW, for those that care: Animal Planet is repeating their Broadcast of Crufts in the middle of the day. I saw a little of the first hour last night - post Numb3rs and they claim to be having a feature on the Korean Jindo.
