There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Wow, things really were better in the "good old days":

That reminds me of the John Oliver bit on TDS a few days ago.

It was a great bit, they just don't make bits like that anymore.

Pairing the word "hoodie" with what's being discussed immediately beforehand is rather...appropriate, isn't it?

IcompletelyON, the 1982 Tylenol murders case is back in the news.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It comes in FOUR colors. Audrey, Bettie and I forget what else. Probably Marilyn.

Marilyn and Ginger.

So weird.

This made me double take after the discussion of certain bits of anatomy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously.

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

Wow. Book Recall: Bad Do-It-Yourself Advice

WASHINGTON — Oxmoor House on Friday recalled nearly 1 million home improvement books because of errors that could lead do-it-yourselfers to make risky mistakes while installing or repairing their electrical wiring.

The errors in technical diagrams and wiring instructions could cause people to be shocked or create a fire hazard.

In announcing the voluntary recall, the Consumer Product Safety Commission said no incidents have been reported.

What follows is a list of the recalled books....

Readers might have bought some of the books more than three decades ago. Bookstores and home improvement stores nationwide sold the recalled books from January 1975 through December 2009.

Wow, they've been selling some of these since 1975???

Heh. A coworker just came by to tell me about Robert Gibbs's press conference (just concluded) in which he was asked when the State of the Union address will be. He said that it definitely would not be on February 2nd, since that would be the same night as the premiere of Lost.

ION, why is it that every single time I fly, someone either tries to send their laptop through the scanner in a packed bag, or tries to take large amounts of liquid through? Can it be possible every single time that I encounter someone who's never flown before?
