Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
YAY Grantness!
I am going back to work today. This seemed a lot better yesterday than it does this morning,what with the whole morning part and all, but still, yay!
Yay work!
I'm heartened to see that Massachusetts scored so badly. But I still maintain Michigan has excellent drivers, even if they don't know what a speed limit is.
I think I'm going to take some Aleve and hope for a placebo effect.
eta: Can I stay home in your place, Perkins?
I hope work treats you well, Perkins!
The MacArthur people sound like hoots. FUN! When b.org nation manages to develop a money-making scheme and we have taken care of our own (I am thinking quarterly distribution checks to members) then we should give out Awesome Awards, given willy nilly to organizations and people that we deem awesome.
It's the other way around, Massachusetts is one of the best.

Yeah. We just show up in a cloud of glitter, all corseted and/or clad in leather, and leave a trail of money in our wake....
If the MacArthur Foundation would just give us seed money, we could get started on that right now. I've got a long list of awesome groups and people I'd want to give piles of money to if I'm ever in a position where I have piles to give.
And, phooey. I really wanted to take that religion quiz, but the Pew site has crapped out on me twice in two different browsers. I can't believe half of US Catholics didn't know about the Eucharist. What the hell? Granted, nobody has ever paid attention in CCD class for the entire history of CCD classes (except the ones my mom taught, which apparently rocked--I was only a toddler so I didn't get to go), but are there really no social studies teachers playing all their dusty Tom Lehrer LPs, including "The Vatican Rag," for their AP students in the lag after the AP tests but before the end of the year before? That is a tragedy.
Also, it is hot up here too but I guess we can't blame ita. Hec and I are up and staggering around but Matilda, who fretted and pulled hair and cried for fizzy water all night, is at last asleep. She looks extra-moppety when she's sleeping and I am having to stay out in the living room so as not to snorgle her to bits.
