I have two Series 1 TiVos and they're both going to be off by an hour for the next three weeks (or so). However, they're also listing all the programming as off by an hour, so they're still working correctly... just oddly.
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

Were we aware that Eddie Izzard has a new series on FX, starting tonight? [link]
I was. Two different non-online-people told me about it. (Chatty!co-worker and my stepdad.) I stuck a Post-It on my TV to remind me to tape it in case I'm not home.
Also, it's 72 minutes tonight. Subsequent episodes are a standard 60 minutes, but I guess b/c it's the premiere, it runs long.

Okay. So. You know how our door is locked? Because I post about it all the freaking time?
Just had a customer who knocked knocked knocked knocked KNOCKED, and when I finally opened the door, ready to kill him, he pushed past me and said, "This is ridiculous!" As he was walking to Other Department, I made sure to say, "YOU'RE WELCOME."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I left my book upstairs. Will someone go get it for me?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So in Chicago recently there was a series of suspicious fires - one of which killed four people. Police are talking to "a person of interest". They do that a lot - talk to a "person of interest" instead of talking to a suspect. Sometimes a person of interest becomes a suspect, and sometimes they go right to being charged with a crime.
Do other cities have this "person of interest" terminology? I'm kinda' curious why it's used. It seems "persons of interest" is a superset of "potential suspects," as I think (but am not positive) a person of interest can be a witness too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Do other cities have this "person of interest" terminology?
I'm pretty sure yes.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

tommyrot, I'm pretty sure they used that terminology around the guys they ended up arresting for the Boston litebrite scare.

I seems to me to be a fairly recent term. I wonder if it's related to that guy (Jewel?) who was a suspect in the Olympic bombing thing - his name was all over the press (they kinda' presumed him guilty) and it turned out he didn't do it and he sued a TV network and got a bunch of money.
