And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

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.

I use hand sanitizer like you wouldn't believe... I know, I'm part of the problem. But honestly, I deal with two immuno compromised kids, both of whom are giant fans of the hands-in-the-mouth school of self-soothing.

I don't wipe down carts, but I Purrell my own hands after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did y'all know that in HTML, multiple spaces get treated like a single space? So it doesn't make any difference if you put two spaces in your posts; everyone will still only see one.

I did know that! I just hope all of my extra spaces don't crash the server someday...

Also, I did not realize until I saw it on Best Week Ever that Viva Laughlin had the characters singing over recordings. WTF is up with that? It just seems weird.

If you have immuno-compromised kids, that is a different story. That is an appropriate use of anti-bacterial stuff.

I thought they had one last night too (as well as Thursday). Not that I watched. So one week, but two episodes.

Yep, apparently cancelled four days after premiering: [link]

Yeah, that's different. I also gave a pass to a friend who handed me Purell before she handed me the baby, because then she told me to stick my finger in the baby's mouth! Hilarious.

The only active ingredient in Purrell is alcohol, so I'm not sure how much it's feeding the super bugs anyway.

Thrive to spite them

I think Albertson's has handwipes available at the entrance. I'm not big on anti bacterial stuff, but I do use it at my desk before I eat or after I've dealt with boxes from Fed Ex and UPS (they're always kind of nasty). Our office supply store has antibactieral folders which I think is taking things too far.

Last night was the 2nd episode of Viva Laughlin, it was oddly compelling. bad but compelling.

It gets them drunk and saucy?

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

It gets them drunk and saucy?

It makes them blind?
