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.

Speaking of which, It's Friday--what are people doing this weekend?
Grading papers, going to the grocery, and cleaning my house.
Staying inside as much as possible.

We are going to an open-house star-watch at the Astronomy department tonight, and probably to an open house at a local park's historic log cabin on Saturday. Plus the usual round of laundry, vacuuming, grocery shopping, dance class for Casper.
