I love all things salt as well, so it's a good thing my blood pressure is good.

Me too!

I just had ham and xsharp cheddar cheese and TJ's sesame crackers for lunch. I know it's not enough food already.

Ooh! I may have to take a walk outside. It's sunny there!

I have never been able to see flickering refresh rates.

I hear them. I can't usually see them.

I can both hear and see low refresh rates, and they drive me batshit. See also: why I don't have CFL bulbs anywhere near me, despite working for a cleantech practice. (They buzz. And flicker. Even the new ones. I realize I'm oversensitive, but I don't need to be gaslighted by newfangled technology.)

Yay shrift!

"Roger Clemens adamantly, vehemently, and whatever other adjectives can be used, denies that he has ever used steroids or ... improper substances," Clemens' attorney, Rusty Hardin said Thursday

And this just in - Lt. Reneault is shocked, SHOCKED to find there is gambling going on at Rick's American Cafe.

perzactly. Juliana is me. Also, I can tell you if any mid-size to large screen device has been left on but isn't receiving data anywhere in our house without looking. They hum funny. That I can do this drives DH batshit.

eta: Go Shrift!

Also, very late here, but I'd definitely like to add an outraged WTFF?!??! to the whole issue with Kat's employers.

They hum at a frequency most people can't hear. Clearly, we are dogs.

On the up side, I fully expect this weird ability to help me predict any earthquakes in my vicinity.

"Your HGH, sir..."

Clearly, we are dogs.

clearly. there seem to be a lot more of us than I thought...

I have 20/10 vision - is that dog too?

Can I ask for some gift ideas?

What are some good gifts for a couple with a new baby? Not baby gifts but something they'd appreciate. Both of my brothers' wives are expecting new babies in the next month and, boy, it would make my gift-buying job easier/more cost efficient if a) I could get them each something as a couple rather than one for each brother, one for SiL and b) if I could get both couples basically the same thing.

I thought about movie tix along with an offer to babysit but am blanking on other good ideas.

a girlfriend just gifted another new-baby couple with two merry-maids cleaning gift certificates. That was WAY appreciated.

can you offer to make up a bunch of meals-to-freeze or a TJ's gift basket with emergency rations? We've been living on the frozen chow mein lately.
