Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
ION, I am trying to decide if I should buy this sofa: [link]# I think it's weird not to sit in it first, but it's so cheap!
Magic 8 ball says 'It is Certain', I'm not sure what that means.
Huh, that doesn't strike me as especially cheap though I suspect that means that I'm cheap.
Of course my furniture place is this:
My FIL mentioned something about how a scientist that Al Gore quotes or uses or something, now is predicting a cooling cycle. I couldn't say anything about this since I didn't know anything about it.
IIRC, the science behind this is that we are currently in a period of very low sunspot activity, which has historically meant a period of climactic cooling for the planet. (Since low sunspots = less heat coming at us from the sun.)
I have totally been to Nebraska Furniture Mart! Good times.

I go look at Crate & Barrel or similar, and then think that $400 is rock-bottom pricing. Of course in real life, it's a lot of money, but so many sofas are so much more!
Bobby McFerrin is amazing. If you ever get the chance to see him in concert, do it. DO EEEET.

Most of the decent sofas I looked at a couple years ago when I had to replace The Most Comfortable Couch in the World® were in the $700-800 range. Other than the one I actually bought, the under $500 options were pretty low quality.
So I just walked to the farmer's market that the local hospital is holding every Friday. I bought a big bag of veggies, a baguette, a coffee, a box of blueberries for one coworker, and pastries for me and another co-worker. And somewhere in the block between my work and the farmer's market, I lost the pastries. Booo! I am too tired to retrace my steps, but I really wanted that croissant.
