Natter 55: It's the 55th Natter
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.
The year in corrections and regrets the errors.
Heh. I love this one:
In an article in Monday’s newspaper, there may have been a misperception about why a Woodstock man is going to Afghanistan on a voluntary mission. Kevin DeClark is going to Afghanistan to gain life experience to become a police officer when he returns, not to shoot guns and blow things up.
The Sentinel-Review apologizes for any embarrassment this may have caused.
Giant baby Dane!

Cutting-edge bookkeeping circa 1924: Bookkeeper on Moving Platform Saves Time in Reaching Files
Time and effort in referring to a large filing index in a busy office are saved by placing a billing machine and its operator on a platform which moves on rails. The carriage is anchored by a hand brake, conveniently placed, and when the operator wishes to move to another case, she releases the handle and pushes herself, machine and all, to the next position.
Guess who is staying late because nobody got their stuff in?
My weekend was very uninteresting, but yesterday was the first day of school for Leif and putting up the Christmas tree day. I set a fire in the fireplace, got out the tree stuff, made hot chocolate, and put on some Christmas music. The kids and I had a great time.

How was his first day, Gud?
I just went to the washroom, realized that I am having a hairpocalypse. It's fuzzy in parts and flat in others. Truly terrible.
Leif's so grown up! Beautiful tree, too.
I have found the box that my conditioner was packed in! My weeks long haircopalypse can finally end.
It went really well. The little guy had a good day. School was canceled today though due to ice.
That's...kind of neat. Not the ice, per se, but one day of school and then a day off sounds like a good way to ease into it.
