Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

That's why I asked about Ross. It's really random, though. I'd never looked at the men's section, and I swear the women's section is radically different in every store.

I can't make out their retail model--them or Marshall's.

It's left-over department store stock, which is why it differs from store to store. Same with TJ Maxx, Loehmanns, Filene's, etc.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was reading a magazine, listening to my iPod, in my own world.

And yet, I still say EW EW EW EW EW.

It's too early for me to talk about Clive Owen

At least you can daydream, right? I wouldn't want anyone to miss out on the hotness, even if it is pre-tea.

Hil, much health~ma to your mom. Here's hoping her hospital stay is a short one.

Happy Birthday Lyra Jane!

If all else fails on the wifebeater front, maybe there's a Sears nearby?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, Lyra Jane!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Same with TJ Maxx, Loehmanns, Filene's, etc.

I think I knew that about Filene's but not the rest. Are they of specific department stores? I mean, I guess Nordstrom Rack's provenance is pretty self-explanatory, and isn't Filene's something easy like that too?

maybe there's a Sears nearby?

There'll be one. Just trying to avoid the "No you're fucking kidding" feeling I got when I tried to buy some at Macy's. The minute I noted that Men's was on the third floor I just went home. Some of the little things feel like ridiculously much work.

At least you can daydream, right? I wouldn't want anyone to miss out on the hotness, even if it is pre-tea.

I've had tea and freshly squeezed orange juice. I am so primed right now. One frozen grape and I'll go off the bliss edge right into ripe Clive-appreciation territory.

I dream of a Vin Diesel con interview, wherein he reveals that instead of being there to promote a movie he was attending to put his dwarf character into RPGA tournament play.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've been thinking about the physics of motion, and people's intuition about same. I'm gonna ask a few questions, and I'm interested in what people's intuition is on these questions. If you know the answers, hold off on posting for a bit, please. For all the questions, ignore issues of friction, aerodynamic drag, engine efficiency at different speeds, etc.

1) You are driving a car, and you accelerate from 0 to 25 mph. Say the amount of energy required is x. Now you continue to accelerate from 25 mph to 50 mph. What is the total amount of energy you used to accelerate from 0 to 50 mph?

2) You drop a heavy object from a height of 10 feet, and when it hits the ground it has a velocity of y. What would be the velocity if you drop it from 20 feet? From 40 feet?
