Someone just asked me "Oh, I should give you the RSVPs I got for the party we're throwing, huh? I should probably forward those to you, maybe?" Yes, since I PRINTED THE NAMETAGS AN HOUR AGO, and I'm leaving in 35 minutes!
Natter 54: Right here, dammit.
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.
ND and I love Ghost Hunters. They're really out to disprove or explain as much as they can. I just love them because they're so working class New England (I mean that as a compliment--it's like my dad's family got a ghost-hunting gig). I love how matter-of-fact there are about it all. No woo-woo there. It also makes it more believable when they get genuinely freaked out. I just love them.
They played at the Celtic festival here, a few years (or maybe more) ago -- I remember really liking them!
I knew someone here had to have seen them! We decide their music was spiral shaped - sometimes loose, sometimes tight - some times ever changing. and Matt and I talked a lot about the drummer - he was sitting there- serene and rooted with such amazing joy. The audience was out of breath at the end of the show
Can you think of any gift card you could get for $5 besides Starbucks or other coffee place where you could actually buy something with it?
itunes for sure.
I'd say gas station because I think, oh! free gallon. But that isn't very exciting, is it?
Oh, Anne, I am so sorry.
What I am doing this weekend is NOT writing a book. I will be doing the endnotes however.
There is a chance that it might still come out before Christmas.
paperdol, there's a handy reference in Wikipedia to the differences between Science, Para-science, Pseudoscience and Fake Science. Anyway, they lay out the different distinctions and what the standard is.
Real science is pretty much: must be able to reproduce in a controlled experiment.
I don't know why people think consciousness is energy unless they're mistaking the electrochemical reactions in the brain. But you could just as well say that consciousness is chemistry. Which, frankly, makes more sense.
I have a mango smoothie with pineapple and champagne. This pleases me.
Oh, that sounds wonderful.
picked up meds tonight and the cost was double normal. no explination. I had them run it again through the insurance and it came back the same. Now I have to deal with the insurance. grr.
ION, the house is not a complete disaster (although bad cat peed on the rug - first time in a month) and mac is being charming and cute and self-entertained.
He has worn holes in 2 pairs of school pants in less than a month. I didn't even manage to get the patches put in. So I think getting new pants is now added to the list for tomorrow's activities.
I meant to tell Sophia that she also shares her birthday with:
H.G.Wells
Chuck Jones
Billy Murray
Ricki Lake
Luke Wilson
It is also Independence Day in Malta, Belize and Armenia.
Emmett's party is tomorrow even though his birthday is actually on Sunday.
Matilda's birthday is next Wednesday.
