Timelies all!
I have not done any onerous tasks today because a) I spent the last two evenings vacuuming and otherwise cleaning up and b) my parents are in town(and will be until Wed. morning, sigh)
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I gave Solomon sub-cut insulin shots, and even though I am incredibly needle-phobic, he was great about it, and since they have fur, you don't really SEE the needle going in.
You pinch the scruff up, inject and shoot. I was able to do in about 3 secs after about 3 or 4 days. If Tzepech is mellow, it really won't be hard at all.
Ok, pizza eaten, and about to add fluid to the car and do a little laundry and my onerous tasks will be done!
Then it's just normal onerousity, like reading papers and prepping tomorrow's class. Plus, shower. Woo. I may shave my legs now that the poison ivy has healed. That's onerous, right?
Second half of Gail Collins' op/ed this morning is mighty eye opening (first half being pointing out that Jon Kyl is (A) retiring and (B) not intended as factual.) [link]
Erin - insent
Crapity - I've run out of NYT logins for the month.
See, I didn't care about the whole paywall controversy until it affected me directly.
I thought external links didn't count against the pre-paywall 20?
When you hit the paywall, go to the URL and remove the numbers that are added to the link, then hit Enter. That circumvents it for me. (Which seems kind of ridiculous.)
mr. flea has been getting around the paywall by not allowing the NYT to save his cookies.
Me, I got the Lincoln Continental free access offer for heavy users, which cracks me the hell up. Lincoln still makes cars?
Also heard what Sox said. That if you via Google it does not count against the 20.
I thought external links didn't count against the pre-paywall 20?
IIRC what they said was that external links "like twitter and facebook" or searches wouldn't count. Which just leads me to believe that they have some nice mutual lovin' going on that doesn't apply to external links from, like us.
Incidentally, there's a Chrome extension called NYT Paywall Smasher, but I have no idea if it's working or I just haven't gone there directly often enough for the paywall to kick in.
