Natter 67: Overriding Vetoes
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My right eye twitches a lot, but it always happens when I get out of the shower.
It usually happens to me when I'm overtired, but I bet I also have potassium issues (since I get a lot of foot cramps and stuff).
I should probably ask this in tech, but I'm never in there and would forget to look for the answers there.
We are looking at doing the tv thing again, and Jon's thinking about getting AppleTV as opposed to cable. Thoughts, suggestions?
Ack. Calm~ma please. I'm about to have a conversation with someone at work that is way outside my comfort zone.
Bananas are yummy. I got nothin' else this morning.
Calm~ma, brenda. Those conversations are hard.
My nephew got an Apple TV for Christmas, and he loves it. He's a total Mac fiend.
I think Apple TV (or a Blu Ray player or other TV box thingie) makes sense as an alternative to cable to the extent you're willing and able to get your TV and movies from the iTunes store, Netflix, or other streaming video service.
Interesting Slate article: Blood Loss - The decline of the serial killer
Serial killers just aren't the sensation they used to be. They haven't disappeared, of course. Last month, Suffolk County, N.Y., police found the bodies of four women dumped near a beach in Long Island. Philadelphia police have attributed the murders of three women in the city's Kensington neighborhood to one "Kensington Strangler." On Tuesday, an accused serial stabber in Flint, Mich., filed an insanity plea.
But the number of serial murders seems to be dwindling, as does the public's fascination with them. "It does seem the golden age of serial murderers is probably past," says Harold Schechter, a professor at Queens College of the City University of New York who studies crime.
Wow, I lived through the "golden age of serial killers" and didn't know it....
