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.
It's currently a balmy 13 degrees here in Boston. I like winter why again? 'Cause days like this make me forget that I do.
It does help that it's sunny instead of gray, but it also looks so inviting that I want to go outside, and I know that's just a trap by Mr. Snowmiser.
Happy birthday, Shrift!!
My SiL in NC is supposed to be induced today so I may have a nephew who shares your birthday (unless, of course, he takes his sweet time even after the induction). Seems auspicious!
In other ious news, my salad is delicious!!!

ION, I am learning some accounting things and my head go 'splody.

Not crazy! It could be really interesting and it's useful work!
I'm up to 4-6 calls a day and someone knocking on my door every third day.
Thank goodness the only strangers who knock on my door are the religious ladies (I'm not sure what religion, but on the few occasions I've actually answered the door to them, a cheerful "no thank you" to their "Would you like to talk about God?" sends them on their way.) The phone calls are bad enough. I think the record was 10 on my answering machine, all just shy of implying the other candidates ate babies for fun. And that was just the mayoral election!
Fat animals! [link]
Featuring a fat hedgehog (five times the normal weight) and a fat baby wombat stuck in a flower pot....
In fact, they want to encourage [kids to choose to have sex] because they benefit when kids end up having sexually transmitted diseases, unintended pregnancies and then they lead them into having abortions, so you have to look at the financial motives behind those who are promoting comprehensive sex ed.
If I had known there was so much money in STDs and abortions I'd have had a totally different major.
I can't look at the fat animals -- it's too close to animal abuse, IMHO.
Fred Pete, I'd go for a rotating "first in the nation" awarded by lottery or whatever. After all, state committees would have four years or more to prepare to handle the attention.
