YAY more tennis. bless CBS.
If mac continues to entertain himself, I may actually finally check out the fall show schedule and get some things set up on the Tivo.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
OK, this was funny:
brenda m: First casualty of moving/packing. Glass-shaded floor lamp, meet ceiling fan. Cue loud bang and shower of glass. Ceiling fan wins. Crap.
sumi: Ha. Now we know who the intended audience for that movie was!

Nilly - that's exactly why I like taking the "my hand for scale" pictures - they really have grown so much.
Brenda, bummer about the lamp! No collateral injuries?

No collateral injuries yet. But since the bedroom and all its piles of crap in various stages of cleaning and packing are covered in broken glass, I don't expect that to hold up.
Maybe I'll just throw it all out. That would work, right? The more I pack the more I want it all to just disappear anyway.

Brenda, that sounds crazy.
Wonder Bread (or similar) is good for picking up glass. Maybe go buy a loaf and start patting around?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Random wacky story:
WAUKESHA, WISCONSIN - It was embarrassing enough that Mark Stahnke woke up in a neighbor's yard without his pants. Then he remembered they contained a cashier's check for $41,093, meant for his son, and several hundred dollars in cash.
But he got it all back Friday. Tim Curzan's dog, Joe, found the pants at an intersection, according to police. Curzan took them to the police, who contacted Stahnke, who doesn't remember what happened after he left a bar the night before.

Oh, shower of glass sounds horrid. Dropped glass is bad enough.
I'm thinking the angry Shaolin monks ought to expand their ire to include spammers in general. I'm thinking it would be mightily effective.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Brenda, how I identify with the wish to be rid of one's possessions in a move. About halfway through the disgorging of the moving truck here, I was ready to tell the guys to close it up and drive it all away to charity, even though I had no idea which possessions they'd brought in so far. Eventually it all fit....
