The Quantum Leap finale makes me cry every fucking time. And yet I have to watch it.

Me too.

Me too.

I can't remember the finale. Looks like I will be putting Quantum Leap on the Netlfix queue... behind Veronica Mars, Entourage, Robin Hood, Dexter and Doogie Howser MD.

Beth, the floors look beautiful! No doughnuts but I have chocolate pie I can shove through the interpipes.

I just saw that episode this past week.

Me too.

I still love Quantum Leap.

now I'm hankering for Quantum Leap again. Dang it. I'm working through my Stargate fix right now. Y'all are no help with my TV addiction.

Oh boy.

Oh for the love of Christ.

Runoff from all the rain is over whelming the wastewater collection system and there's a major sewer main break that's going to keep a section of CApital Circle (one of hte main roads in town) closed for at least week.

The City has made the very reasonable request that people limit their in home water intake by limiting the use of dishwashers and washing machines. That's pretty much verbatim.

In the comment section on the paper's website someone left this comment:

So, the City of Tallahassee says:

1. Let your dishes pile up and maybe use paper plates! The next thing is to tell us that the landfill is too full, so don't throw away too much trash!

2. Don't wash you dirty clothes & go buy new ones! Then you will be improving the ecomony at Wally Mart and thus increasing the revenue at City Hall by the extra SALES TAX @ 7.5%

All of this sounds like a logical plan to be followed for at least the next 2 weeks! Yeah sure?

What I wanted to say was "Seems reasonable to me, I'm sure you'd hate it if shit started coming in your house because some asshole had to run his/her dishwasher and washing machine every day several times a day."

Instead I pointed out that it said, "limit" the use, they weren't forbiding it and what's so hard about doing this and being courteous to our neighbors so people don't have sewage in their homes.

There's always some bonehead who doesn't read the instructions thoroughly and blames it on the person who wrote them. Like the guy who wrote to a newspaper (I wish I could find the original letter) to complain about all the problems it caused when he tried to save water by putting a brick in his toilet bowl as the paper suggested. The editor replied that the brick is supposed to go in the tank.

askye, this is one of the many reasons one of my best friends refers to it as "Talla-nasty".

Sometimes I wish the NY Times had comment sections for their articles, but then I remember that virtually every newspaper comment thread I've ever encountered is full of reactionary tools like that.
