Mac = very cute.
I finally got a pedicure. My toenails are a frightening hue of pepto pink. Yet, so happy.
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.

Hil - goodwill.
The Repubs are complaining about the closed legislative process that gets legislation passed, while glossing over the fact that they had a closed legislative process that got almost nothing passed, and what did get passed was mostly pork and rolling back Constitutional protections.
WhatEV.
The Naked Trucker and T-Bones show on Comedy Central.
I worked on the pilot for that. It's a little different from its original format, but still pretty funny. I didn't get picked up with the series as a) pilot crews are usually replaced when a series gets picked up, mostly because of my reason b) I already had a different job at the time.
I've come across old freestanding wooden headboards in antique malls all over.
Overstock.com has a few, like this one: [link]
Oooh, that one looks nice, Jesse. It even almost goes with the rest of my furniture, style-wise. (My furniture is a mix of IKEA, hand-me-downs from various relatives, and two antique bookcases and a nightstand I inherited from my grandmother. They kind of end up working together, though -- the wooden stuff is all different styles, but all cherry or oak (or cherry-veneer) and all relatively simple and angular. The fabric stuff is all different colors, but I found a bedspread that's got stripes in just about every color that's in my couch and chairs, so it worked out.)
The Goodwill and antique shop suggestions are good, too. I think I'd rather go with somewhere that'll deliver, though, as I'm carless.

Also from Wikipedia:
In 1989, Apple buried about 2,700 unsold Lisas at a landfill in Logan, Utah and got a tax write-off on the land they rented for it.
