My buddy, a long-time Bears fan, is going out of his mind this season.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
The entire town is for sale! Price: $326,619.
This will buy you a 3-bedroom single-family house where I live. Alas, I can afford neither.
I wonder if my sister wants to go in with me on purchasing a French town...

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
150 square meters of living space is not enough for Buffista town.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seven bedrooms sounds pretty good for a vacation home, though...

I would somehow manage to wedge myself in there.

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

Yeah, we'd have to buy the neighboring town too.
eta: Ooh, and connect the two with a monorail!

Everyone is having babies. For myself, I would settle for not feeling like one.

What is even happening?
Hey hivemind -- other than opening the valves all the way, which I've already done, is there anything I can do to stop my radiator (steam, I think) making these annoying loud rattling noises? It sounds like someone's filled it with marbles, and the last time I called my landlord about it, she called in the handyman DH and I refer to as Useless Incompetent Guy. (He stared at it for about five minutes, then nodded, and left without doing anything. And never came back.) I'd be willing to put up with a few days of no heat if it would mean being able to hear myself think in my own living room.If it is a steam system, I don't think you can do anything. If, instead, it's forced hot water, you can bleed the radiators, which might help with the noise, and can sometimes help with the heat production. Ask the landlord if it's forced hot water. If it is, make handyuseless show you how to bleed them.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti
What a cool video: The Inner Life of the Cell. You'd need a semester of biology class to understand what's going on, but the pictures are awesome. Like they took an IMAX camera inside a cell. They're explaining how a white blood cell "knows" when it's time to leave the bloodstream and move toward an infection. At first it's specifically about that and farther in it becomes a little more "let's show you all around the cell, skyscraper view to worm's-eye." Very cool.
