Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think it is set to come on around 5-6am and then again in the day and early evening.
Depending on your city/state laws, your landlord may be able to keep the heat lower overnight. So if your landlord has a programmable thermostat, s/he might take advantage of that.

I like a cold house. But I had to close one of the few open windows this morning...it was just too cold.

Ted Williams' Severed Head Abused In Cryonics Facility: Former Exec
NEW YORK — The New York Daily News is reporting that Red Sox Hall of Famer Ted Williams' severed head was mistreated at an Arizona cryonics facility, according to details from a new book.
In "Frozen," Larry Johnson, a former executive at the Alcor Life Extension Foundation in Scottsdale, Ariz., writes that Williams' head, which had been severed and frozen for storage, was abused at the facility. Johnson claims a technician took baseball-like swings at Williams' frozen head with a monkey wrench.
Williams, the last player to hit over .400 in a season, died in 2002 at age 83 and had his remains sent to Alcor for cryogenic storage in the hope that future generations would develop the technology to revive him.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
re Letterman: Gavin de Becker(who likes carrots) does say that if a blackmailer says "I'll tell your wife," the smart thing to do is say "Ok, I'll get her right now." Because then they don't have power over you anymore.(and mostly they are gutless and greedy and have no intention of saying anything.)
