So far nothing too surprising. I'm pretty cynical about the steroids issue, but I will be sad if Edgar Martinez's name shows up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's pretty much why I figured linking to it was plenty.
They just told us we can leave early today, which seems fucking ridiculous, given the fairly typical bad weather outside. But then my boss got delicious cookies delivered for us! So now I'm not nearly as cranky as earlier.

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, uh, didn't know we didn't know.
Up until now, the best theory was the Aurora Borealis were the result of God lighting His farts.

You mean when they start to realize that "you people are ridiculous!"?
I think that does develop pretty early on.

That was my reaction as well, ita . I guess it was one of those theories well fleshed out and understood, just not observed? (I lived at a solar observatory, for gawdsake. One channel on the tv was a feed from the telescope. I would think I had known, but nope.)

Yeah, me too. I was all "Doi...it's the sun, Dr. Genius!"
