That card is awesome.
megan, I totally recommended Dave Ramsey to someone recently, and I've never really listened to him myself! It was totally based on you (and clips I've heard and read).
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Tomorrow I move offices into the one I painted last week. Pluses, better lighting and ventilation. Minuses, it is the old IT office, so it's next to the server room and is FREEZING since it's on the same thermostat.
I have been pleading with my boss about changing the "no space heater" policy in this instance. He says if I find one with good safety features (like no open elements and automatic shut-off) he might make an exeption. Anyone have any suggestions?

Huh - random. Flea playing trumpet tonight with the Caltech Jazz Band.
I really thought you meant our flea for a minute, there.

That would possibly have upped the random-quotient.

I think there is a thing as too much bling.
OMG. I'm listening to yesterday's Dave Ramsey podcast and a woman just called in worried that with "the new administration" there will be universal health care and her physician husband's income will be "greatly affected"
How is physician pay in countries that have some form of Universal health care? I have no idea. Not that we're going to have UHC in the U.S. anytime soon.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh that is entirely too awesome for words.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
New Castro Photo Released, Reveals Will Not Survive Next 4 Years
HAVANA — A new photograph released Friday shows Fidel Castro looking less gaunt than in his last image two months ago, but the ailing Cuban leader said he doubts he'll make it to the end of Barack Obama's four-year term.
...
Castro, 82, hasn't been seen in public since undergoing abdominal surgery in July 2006, and he formally turned over the presidency to his brother Raul last year. On Thursday night, he instructed Cuban officials to start making decisions without taking him into account.
In a column titled "Reflections of Comrade Fidel," he suggested his days are numbered, saying Cuban officials "shouldn't feel bound by my occasional 'Reflections,' my state of health or my death."
"I have had the rare privilege of observing events over such a long time. I receive information and meditate calmly on those events," he wrote. "I expect I won't enjoy that privilege in four years, when Obama's first presidential term has ended.
It's amazing when you consider how many US presidents he's outlived....
