I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Squeaky Fromme and someone I don't remember.

Sarah Jane Moore! Who has a great song in Assassins. Squeaky gets a duet with John Hinckley, singing to their obsessions.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It is less-- so 2400.

I hate to ask, but can you tell me how you figured that out. I am trying to figure out the cost difference between printing many brochures on my laser printer rather than taking them to the print shop, and I am trying to approximate a cost per page. I know they will ask me how I came up with it!

T- that makes sense, except for the number should be less.

should it be .8 instead of .2, because the page is 80 covered, then 50 percent covered?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

50% covered in ink is 2.5 times more covered than 20%, so the toner will print 2.5 times fewer copies. 6000 divided by 2.5 is 2400.

You don't have to shovel the sidewalks in my neighborhood. Likely because we don't have sidewalks.

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

P-C, you should have said you counted all the pixels on all 6000 pages....

I had it backwards, if each page is 20% covered, then you should get 5 times as many pages than if each page was 100% covered. So 100% covered should yield 1200 pages and @ 50% covered twice that: 2400.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Just got my PBS email and realized Downton Abbey is written by the guy who wrote Gosford Park. More reasons to watch.

Oooh, I was wondering if anyone else was watching that. I read about it on Smart Bitches and watched it on-line last night. I QUITE liked -- even though I find Gosford Park nigh unwatchable -- and will be DVRing the rest of them.

Really liking Downton Abbey so far. So many agendas.
