Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yay Shane!

ION, this looks like a fun book: How to Teach Physics to Your Dog: explaining quantum physics through discussions with a German shepherd

Chad Orzel's How to Teach Physics to Your Dog is an absolutely delightful book on many axes: first, its subject matter, quantum physics, is arguably the most mind-bending scientific subject we have; second, the device of the book -- a quantum physicist, Orzel, explains quantum physics to Emmy, his cheeky German shepherd -- is a hoot, and has the singular advantage of making the mind-bending a little less traumatic when the going gets tough (quantum physics has a certain irreducible complexity that precludes an easy understanding of its implications); finally, third, it is extremely well-written, combining a scientist's rigor and accuracy with a natural raconteur's storytelling skill.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Has anyone gotten their eyebrows threaded, instead of waxed? How do the two compare?

I've done other parts of my face. I find that threading takes a little longer but irritates my skin much less.

Sounds like a good book. I'm a fan of quantum physics. There's something cool about how the fundamental rules of the Universe totally defy common sense.

Good to know. I have a Groupon that gets me two manicures, two pedicures and two eyebrow waxings or threadings. Since I've never done either, maybe I'll try it both ways.

Welcome, Shane! Congratulations, happy mommies!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I can't find anyone who does threading around here.
