Wow, I just watched that video Tom. That was some smooth landing. Well done.

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.
Perkins, you ARE up too early. I emailed you though.
Perkins, give it time. Pretty soon you'll be able to wake up 5 minutes before the appointed time and be back to bed within 10 minutes!
I think so, Sarameg. I am pretty good about the afterwards part already, but need to work on the before part.
How is your AC doing?
Nora, back flung.
Does getting massages count as a hobby? I could totally take that up.
That does sound like an excellent plan. Or how about watercolors? I don't remember them having any smell. Of course I could be wrong. Ooh! Colored pencils!
you said that Pesto makes your head hurt. Any chance you could be allergic to basil or pine nuts? I am pretty sure I am.
Not sure. I have developed a strange sensitivity to olive oil--it's okay in small quantities, but when there's enough that it's really part of the flavour, it makes my head hurt. So I'd been writing it off as that.
Wait--definitely not allergic to basil. Allergic to pine nuts would be okay, since pesto's the only time I encounter them.
Also, re: sleep and shots, listen to sarameg. She's a pro.
Colored pencils!
Nice idea! I can easily factor in collecting as well as using.
Stonehenge pocket-watch predicts solstices
This amazing Stonehenge pocket-watch lets you "tell time like a Druid" by aligning the miniature circle of stones using a built-in compass and then looking at the shadows. As a bonus, it also predicts the winter and summer solstices.
Huh. "I tell time like a Druid" might be a good line for an online dating profile....
Are those stones in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
"Think you have the stones to date me, boyo?" "Sure! I can even align them for chronological purposes--see?"
