'Safe'
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.
Off to new Ear Nose and Throat woman. Maybe she can figure out what has been causing frequent sinus headaches and nosebleeds.
Oh and on topic a bit: Our family does a thing where if two people are really on the outs the declare each other dead. I think this is a Jewish thing... (though probably not exclusively Jewish).
Also: trip to Tumwater to pick up package at UPS. Saw "Lord's Gym" sign above an "Inferno Pizza" sign.

I've not been close with a certain aunt since she and my mom had a dust-up during my grandmother's hospitalization that could easily have landed her in the adjoining bed if my uncle hadn't been there. Mom's since reconciled with her, but I just haven't had any use for her in two decades, and don't regret the lack of contact at all.
My paternal grandfather pretty much ignored me when I was a kid. He wasn't overtly hateful or anything, but I was his last chance at a grandson and lacked that all-important Y chromosome. My big sister was great about it, though. He'd give her a $20 (ignoring me) and, completely unprompted, she'd split it with me. (And I was not a particularly charming little sister.)
Then I turned 12 and was the spitting image of my paternal grandmother. She'd died by then and grandpa had married her utter nemesis. And all of a sudden, there was a younger version of her visiting on holidays, reading books and occasionally shooting him hurt looks over the top of the pages. Freaked. Him. Out. Good times.
He started giving me $20s, too.
This just in: mole rats cure cancer! (In mole rats.) [link]
If mole rats could talk, what would they sound like? I'm gonna guess like Huckleberry Hound. No wait, that's not it. Who was the cartoon dog with the droopy face?
eta: Droopy. That's it. That's what mole rats would sound like.
You never watched Kim Possible, did you?
Yeah, but just one or two episodes. Did that mole rat talk?
Ooh baby! Scooby Doo & Velma As Vampire & Zombie Hunters
I've mentioned my Velma crush, right?
I think I need this t-shirt....
eta: I just noticed the "R.I.P. S+F+D" on the van's door. Heh.
Rufus was less articulate than even Scooby Doo, and was voiced by Nancy Travis.
Except in A Sitch In Time, when he was voiced by Michael Dorn, but that was an alternate reality.
