This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm so glad I kept watching CM past my first two episodes. One was the Frankie Muniz one, which was just weird.

eta: Ooh, the LP one is on my TiVo! Bonus creepy tonight.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hey, Chuck is going to be in 3-D on Monday.

Where does one get 3-D glasses?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Well, it's official. This week was Melbourne's worst heat wave since they started keeping records in the 1880s. The rail operator cancelled over 1,000 services in four days, since the notion that Melbourne occasionally gets a bit on the warm side has escaped them up to now.

And of course, with everyone trying to run their air conditioners, there was a power outage leaving 500,000 homes and businesses without power. (Not us, thankfully.)

I heard they're going to be available at SoBe Lifewater displays at various retailers. Target is supposed to start giving them out (free) on Saturday. I've already planned an early morning visit to get mine. YRumourMV.

Weren't railways buckling under the heat? And they barely closed the stadia for the tennis.

I could make a Target run. If I had to, I mean.

They were, though that only accounted for a small proportion of the cancellations.

Whoever was reponsible for the stadium roof has not been doing much for PR. They did close the roof a lot faster the next day, though.

The commentators were fairly unforgiving to Djokovic who seems to have bailed because of the heat. I thought that was a little harsh. I'm sure he'd have been fine with temps under 100.
