Huh. This is kind of cool. For the ground beef story, the Times put up on their website scans of 106 pages of documents they used as sources -- everything from the logs of the grinding facility the day of a particular contamination to letters from executives to research about how effective the various testing and cleaning methods actually are. [link]
edit: the second document is from a FOIA request and has a lot of details blacked out, and then the next one is the same letter that they obtained from "sources" with all the details shown.
That's great, msbelle! And that sounds so cool, Kat.
I'm back from a fun evening over at a neighbor/coworkers. It was a little odd to think I might be the oldest one there, but still fun. Nice to be able to walk there and back (though I didn't walk back, some people wanted to see my house and were also leaving so I got a ride.) ALSO, I spent a long time exchanging travel adventures with this one couple, half of which was merchant marine, and it may have netted me an invite to a party next weekend with a bunch of, and I quote " single really dirty sailors" and I am buzzed enough right now to think that is a COMPLETELY BRILLIANT IDEA.
Other than this evening, day was a bust. Missed my walk due to timing, had to try on swimsuits (mine is having structural failure) and then I get to the pool, AND IT WAS CLOSED. AHRG. First day in a month I haven't exercised somehow. Though I did climb 8 flights of stairs, so maybe that counts. Oh, and I finished murdering the medusa bush. That also totally counts. Took the edge off of missing the pool.
Tomorrow, long walk and long pool, damnit.
it is a COMPLETELY BRILLIANT IDEA. bowm chicka bowm bowm bowm.
moreso brilliant if any said dirty sailors will be heading to NY. I'm just saying, you could talk me up.

Sarameg, that's officially a dare. And msbelle officially has to follow through to some extent.
I know, right?! Sounds like a bad idea, so therefore, sounds really good. Provided they remember to tell me where and when.
ita is a troublemaker. obvs an afternoon about town is really about as wild as my life gets right now. der.
sareg, you totally have to go to the party with single dirty sailors. And do everything I would do. If they were girl sailors that is.
I don't know that I could manage a meara....heh. Oh hell, what am I saying?
Ok, so you don't have to flirt as much. I'm not asking that. No impossible tasks. :) bit flirt a little at least!
