Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Leah, you sure you can't get out of town this weekend? Like, really sure, because they're 98% positive, and I'd hate anything to happen to you.

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

That's right where I am! Cool!

If three million degrees can be called 'cool.'

(I've actually heard of oil change places forgetting to do this.)

Or forgetting to put the cap back on. Or screwing up the filter.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The oil and caps and thinngs all seem to be fine. Word from our friendly neighborhood mechanic is thaht it's probably a solenoid but maybe the whole transmission, but they can't do anything about it til Wednesday.

But not dangerous to drive, so I don't have to cancel all my plans. That's a big relief.

In conclusion, hooray beer!

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

Trudy, you sure you can't get out of town this weekend? Like, really sure, because they're 98% positive, and I'd hate anything to happen to you.

Nope, looks like I'm doomed.

Heh. Well, a cool way to die. Not "eaten by a bear" cool, but the fun factor of dying in a nuclear holocaust is upped when you posted just beforehand, "Hey! I can see the mushroom cloud from here!"

You'd all (well, some) be very sad and stuf -- as well you ought -- but, frankly, posting next to an atom bomb would even top Fiona's "well I've gone into labour and am leaving for Hospital now" lo these many years ago when she had Benno.

I'm thinking EMP issues may make posting from near ground zero a bit problematic though.

If my father had an online presence, he would so do that. If he can have a surgery or procedure with local rather than general, he does. So he can watch. His surgeons have all been accomodating.

It's true. You may have to settle for "what the hell was THA.... "

My boss is amused that they're advising we get out of the city. Because, you know, going to Jersey will surely be far enough. Once we cross the Hudson we should be fine.
