I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

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.

Right now I'm a contractor hired through an Indian tribe. That was the short-term fix they came up with, but it took them a month to put it together, which is why I was out of work for the month of February (and not in the fun travel-to-hot-places way).

I'm hoping it'll be posted within a month, but he didn't actually say, and I forgot to ask. Still not psyched about where in the organization they're planning to put me, though. It's not a good fit for the program I run, but the manager I have been talking with claims that we don't have any say, all these decisions are being made far up the chain of command.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OMG, radiation hysteria talk by my desk.

"You know the half life of radioactive materials is *forever*, right? We're screwed."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Turns out, practicing guitar when you haven't played in close to a year will result in blisters. How about that.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

That's why I said attributed, David. It's difficult to tell where Dorothy Parker ends and the legend begins.

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Apparently they've never quite grasped what "half life" means. They probably think it's light years long.

Yeah, as opposed to a few parsecs.

ION, we may yet get a federal government shut-down. (Joy!)

And the wingnut right is unable to tell when someone is pulling their tail.
