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.

An odd result of the Chinese mega-quake: NPR correspondents being interviewed on TV news shows.

So weird.

Like worlds crossing.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Earworm of the day: Say Say Say. Why, when I haven't heard the song in years, I have no idea.

Which is bad, but not nearly as bad as when I got sucker-punched by Total Eclipse of the Heart last week.

Earworms: Your brain's way of saying "You've been Rickrolled."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Total Ecplipse of the Heart

We could have a discussion on the worst songs to be earwormed with, but some folks might get upset....

I was going to say. Melissa Block: luckiest western reporter evar.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, after several work-days in a row of waking up early, getting to work early or at least on time, this morning I left five minutes late. Of course today was the day my train also decided to enjoy the lovely weather, so I waited like 15 more minutes to get on a train, and was 20 minutes late. Hate that!

At least the weather is lovely.

Yeah and Robert Siegel was on Chicago's NBC news station last night.

luckiest western reporter evar

One would hope that she's only considering herself lucky not to have been hurt or killed, not that she's thinking what a big boost to her career being there is while witnessing dead children being carried out of a school reduced to rubble.

hip deep in pie

I do not multitask well. Which is why just before our staff meeting, I realized there was all this stuff I have to do that I just plum forgot about when I had another assignment dropped into my lap.

Awesome and pretty lamp: [link]

This intreging piece of design is sure to attract the right kind of attention in your home. Cleverly designed to look like a normal table lamp through flat images on sheets of glass which layer up to form a 3D image. The light seems to radiate out from inside as if it were a normal lamp, but move to its side and you can see that it is nothing but sheets of glass! This piece of contemporary furniture could almost be classified as a modern work of art, but however you see it, it will certainly add a touch of class to your home. An interesting design concept which also looks stunning!
