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.

Oh, bollocks. I've been spending time on the Atlantic blogs, particularly TNC's blog, because he is really interesting and he has a great, and well-moderated, comment section.
Except today the IT guys updated the webfiltering database again, and now Disqus, and Disqus comments, are blocked. I can read the posts, but none of the comments.
... this means I'm going to have to be productive, doesn't it? I'll have to file...
Jump Into a Universe of Infinite Possibilities.
The abundant you. The inventor you. The creative you. In alternate universes, everything you desire may have already taken place. Tap into this infinite potential with Quantum Jumping.
...
Since the 1920’s, quantum physicists have been trying to make sense of an uncomfortable and startling possibility—that an infinite number of alternate universes exist.
Leading scientists like Stephen Hawking, Michio Kaku and Neil Turok, all of whom are responsible for life-changing breakthroughs in the field of quantum physics, have all suggested the existence of multiple universes.
...
In these alternate universes, alternate versions of YOU could be living out their lives.
And with an infinite number of them, it means that anything that can happen, does happen—in another universe. If this hypothesis is true, there is a universe where Obama never won the election and another where Princess Diana is still alive. There is a universe where you are the King of Scotland and a universe where you are a tea farmer in China. A universe where you are a celebrity musician, and one where you busk on a pavement for spare change.
...
Now imagine what you could accomplish if you could somehow tap into these alternate universes to meet and learn from these alternate versions of yourself. Imagine the wisdom you’d learn. The opportunities you’d recognize, the skills you’d acquire, and the pitfalls you’d know to avoid.
By meeting these alternate selves, you’d essentially be tapping into a sea of knowledge and experience. But how, might you be asking, does one access these alternate realities? That’s where Quantum Jumping comes in.
Quantum Jumping is a visualization process where you use your mind to ‘jump’ into parallel dimensions, and gain creativity, knowledge, wisdom, skills and inspiration from alternate versions of yourself.
This happens through a phenomenon known as “thought transference.” You see, although the solidity of our world seems indisputable, Quantum Theory suggests that our physical reality is nothing but a very elaborate mirage. A super-hologram of information and energy. A Matrix.
According to this theory, the chair you’re sitting on, your computer, your house, your car, everything that exists around you, could be an illusion.
Well OK then.
I read that as Honest Legos at first and was befuddled.
Celebrating the Ides of Grilled Cheese Month for lunch, yum!

I've already moved on to curried tuna salad on whole wheat.
Grilled cheese is so, you know, yesterday.
It's retro.
It's ironic.
I did not have a grilled cheese, but I did have a tasty roast beef sandwich for lunch.
