Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
the password was on a sheet of paper next to the computer
Please tell me someone got, if not fired, seriously disciplined over this.
I admit, I have a postit on my desk with a password on it. But no username, and no indication of which system, and I also changed the password as soon as the Security Fulfillment guy handed it to me. Also, it just says Password1. I just haven't thrown it away because there was all this other white space left on it for me to scribble notes on. So, you know, whatever.
I've had the cup of tea. I'm still really thirsty. Wahh.

My apartment is failing to clean itself. HATE THAT

facebook's sexism problem
I agree entirely with her message. I feel very lucky that I spend my time in female dominated spaces on the internet, and enjoy the privilege that affords me. Even my primary science fiction space, IO9 is female-run, and probably the sanest gender-relations part of the Gawker network.
But she shouldn't shit on her opponents' grammar or spelling when she characterises them as "viscous" at the very start of her piece and goes on to have more typos. Spellcheck wouldn't have caught that, but it should have caught oline, shouldn't it?

Skipping at the other hand of shabbat because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is CaBil's birthday.
Happy birthday, CaBil! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Breeders Cup races are streaming at the Breeder's Cup website - they're replaying the Marathon right now.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
We haven't seen CaBil in a long time, have we?
Ooh, Breeders Cup. My connection is too slow for streaming, though.
Okay, guys, I'm starting to get worried. The SO left in the snow to work cutting trees this morning at about eight. He texted at 8:09 to say the roads were rough and to keep him appraised of changing weather conditions through the day. I texted back saying I would. Then I checked in on him at 9:45 and 10:15 and didn't hear back. I called him and no answer.
On a normal day it would take him about forty-five minutes to get where he was going. Photos from my friends in the area show icy roads, but it should be clearing up by now. Probably he's fine and his phone died or he forgot to text, right? And then left it in the car so he didn't hear my messages incoming?

WTF? I'm participating in the "Can you transport a vampire somewhere they're not invited" discussion, and someone just dismissed "Let The Right One In" because they're not based on real vampires. Did something happen that I'm not aware of. Jilli, you'd tell me, wouldn't you?
So I got off my ass and fizzed water. I have put off my death by dehydration by one glass of juice. Except now I have no liquid juice mix (plenty of frozen), so I'm going to be whiny and lazy again in thirty to forty five minutes.

We haven't seen CaBil in a long time, have we?
No, I don't think so, now that you mention it.
It's probably that he's busy cutting trees and can't feel/hear his phone, or like you said, the battery died, but I have to admit, I'd be worried too.
I hope you hear something soon! Keep us posted!
