I'm so sorry, Burrell.

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.
Maybe crocs taste like chicken?
My computer has decided not to crash for like 4 hours now. I'm beginning to think that it might be "cured." :: knocks wood ::
I'm sorry, Burrell. What they all said about fucking cancer.
Try to get some sleep.
Well, if you suddenly see a post with my name on it containing "ljiiiiiiiid;fsdliepw,akewlkd" you'll know I fell asleep on my keyboard.
Um, but not this post. There are sense-making letters all around the "ljiiiiiiiid;fsdliepw,akewlkd" stuff.
Burrell, I'm so sorry to hear you got bad news about someone you care about. I wish you and your loved one the best possible outcome, whatever that may be.
Nilly! I'm sorry you're working so late, but it is nice to "see" you.
Kristin!
I'll hopefully catch up on my sleep on shabbat. No rest for the belated-in-their-deadline, or something.

Thanks for the heads-up. I would've assumed you'd gotten a cat.
For physics geeks: A New Take on Warping Spacetime
As in warp drive. As in faster-than-light travel. The article discusses a recent paper on how it might (in theory) be possible. It involves messing around with higher dimensions....
eta:
How fast might a warp-driven spacecraft go? Obousy and Cleaver work out an upper limit on such a velocity (based upon quantum field theory) of 10^32 c, c being the speed of light. Mind boggling to be sure, but tempered by the fact that the energy required for such a velocity is significantly greater than that available in the observable universe. Another of those ’small problems of engineering,’ as Robert Forward used to call them…

Stop being so hard on my Nilly! Isn't rest from the everyday routine the whole point of shabbat?
I'm sorry, Burrell.
Dinner was grilled salmon (with lemon slices), grilled zucchini(with a bit of olive oil and Mrs. Dash) and grilled corn on the cob (coated with butter, cinnamon and brown sugar).
