Good morning, all.
Number of times I heard upstairs neighbors chant drink-drink-drink: 2
Number of minutes I hung on the doorbell waiting for them to hear it: 3
Volume of song that drew my ire: ca. 90 decibels
Number of years since Boys II Men was cool: infinity
Time of offense: 7:30pm
Status of upstairs neighbors: see above re: drink drink drink
And yet, after my epic yelling event (I eventually got one of them on the phone, and he clearly recalled the last time, which involved 4am, the effword, and threats), they quieted down considerably and left the house at about 9 to go annoy somebody else. But, I mean really -- Boys II Men, on St. Patty's Day, at 7:30pm? These neighbors were in the 3rd grade when Boys II Men was big.
Sheesh Nutty, you'll never get invited to their party that way.
Animal planet is showing a flyball tournament. Lots of fun and not 100 percent border collie and jack russell. (They had a German Longhaired Pointer on one team.)

It's so good. Continues to surprise.
eta I can so spell!
OK, this science story is a little... odd. Have you heard about the new and exciting cancer treatment? It's... antimatter. No, really.
“To achieve the same level of damage to cells at the target area one needs four times fewer antiprotons than protons. This significantly reduces the damage to the cells along the entrance channel of the beam for antiprotons compared to protons. Due to the antiproton’s unsurpassed ability to preserve healthy tissue while causing damage to a specific area, this type of beam could be highly valuable in treating cases of recurring cancer, where this property is vital.”

Agility tournaments are also fun to watch. Including a Yorkie who ran the whole course in great time -- yapping every second, I kid you not. You wondered how he could breathe!
Yeah. There need to be a few more numbers in there -- it needs to be how many people each vampire kills each month, and how many people each vampire turns each month. Which would make for some kind of interesting equations -- a predator/prey relationship is pretty easy to model - it's in every intro-level differential eqations textbook - but the predator/prey/turning would add in all kinds of weirdness. Hmm.
Somebody call Charlie Epps.
Timelies all!
We're finally breaking in the crockpot we got as a wedding gift by making chili. This should be interesting as we're kind of playing mix-and-match with recipies.(Mostly using one recipe, but with a couple substitutions)

I think we actually have a pretty definitive answer on this question anyway, assuming you can extrapolate from zombies to vampires. [link]
