Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
NASA: Hubble Space Telescope's Reboot Going Well
NASA's long-distance effort to revive the ailing Hubble Space Telescope is going well, with the orbital observatory on track to resume science observations by week's end, agency officials said Thursday.
The two-day repair began early Wednesday as NASA engineers began commanding Hubble from the ground to switch to a backup system after its main data relay channel failed last month. But remote control fix is tricky, requiring systems to power up after nearly two decades of hibernation.

Has anyone else been having issues with their Tivo lately? Mine has been recording reruns of TDS and Colbert that are clearly not on the To-Do List.

People were a little bit...stressed. (The actual work took 2 days, but the testing and planning took much longer.) But that's what a side B is for! And btw, it worked. Science operations are in fact resuming tonight. Yay data!

Now tagless for your comfort.
So I left the router alone and didn't use wireless for about 24 hours. It worked just fine when I fired up both laptops this morning to check. The good news is I have wireless. The bad news is that I have no idea why I didn't yesterday.

TiVo issues: Mine has been refusing to admit that anything has thumbs ratings, even though I wiped out all the previous thumbs and rethumbified enough shows. It's an S1, so I suppose it's just aging out of usefulness. SIGH
