'Objects In Space'
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 was going to make a bunny slounge joke but someone did it already. Sorry, that's all I got.
ita, I too have little thin hidey veins. The horror of getting a needle in the vein is usually enough to make me faint, so if you're still conscious after that, I say you are a tough woman.
ION, my company served a free Thansgiving dinner today. Turkey, awesome stuffing, corn, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and three kinds of pie. Yum! Sometimes I love this company.
I've started paying more attention to the line insertion. The technology is so cool. They hit the vein with a sheathed needle, so they can pull the needle out and be left with a flexible route in, which allows for a bit more mobility. And then they have the jointed doohickey which gives you a couple places to put drugs in with just the one stick--either with IV fluids or not.
Better take that trip to Europe or Canada soon....
The dollar’s slide: 1/3 down and falling faster
With a chart that's kinda' scary.
* The US dollar has now lost more than a third of its value (-35%) against a basket of major currencies since Feb 2002.
* The decline is accelerating. The USD has shed -12.5% of its value in the last year, -3.5% in the last month, and -1.5% in the last week alone.
The huge US trade deficit is generally considered the major reason, with the ginormous US budget deficit right behind it....
I have eaten lunch without spilling it all over myself. Now I need to spend the next 90 minutes in quiet contemplation of why I am awesome and people should hire me. Or at the very least, remaining calm.
Shrift, don't forget to compile your turn-ons and turn-offs.

And remember: gay men, not good. Lesbians, good, as long as there are no men around to provide better options.
I remember seeing a porn flick back in the mid-80s that was a pretty funny spoof on Dallas in addition to lots of sex on screen.
It wasn't called "Ballass" was it?
That was the movie that had my entire family gathered around cracking up and MST3K'ing it, including my mom.
The family that plays together...
Seriously, though, the thought of watching porn with ANY member of my family...there are no words for the level of disturbing I feel (squick not being quite the right one - maybe it will have to do).
If we weren't laughing at it, it would have been very disturbing, but since we were mocking it, it was like watching a really bad film. My brother had the remote and was fast-forwarding through all the sex stuff, which made it even funnier.
Cow Falls Off Cliff and Hits Van
Charles and Linda Everson were driving back to their hotel when their minivan was struck by a falling object — a 600-pound cow. The Eversons were unhurt but the cow, which had fallen off a cliff, had to be euthanized.
The year-old cow fell about 200 feet from the cliff and landed on the hood of the couple's minivan, causing heavy damage.
A Chelan County fire chief, Arnold Baker, said the couple missed being killed by a matter of inches in the accident Sunday on a highway near Manson.
The Eversons, visiting the area from their home in Westland, Mich., to celebrate their first wedding anniversary, were checked at Lake Chelan Community Hospital as a precaution.
Everson, 49, said he didn't see the cow falling and didn't know what happened until afterward.
He said he kept repeating: "I don't believe this. I don't believe this."
