CJ is out on a winter ops search and rescue today. I hope the person is found soon.

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.
Good luck to CJ!
Yeah, I would make that trade, Pix. But we're going to be "off" that whole time anyway, because we have a giant fundraising event directly before turkey day, and the SO is going to tour a little more right after. And somewhere in there we need to go to Nashville to hang with our musician buddy and talk to his wife about our work.
Anyway, pork is marinating. If you had instructions that called for 2 (1 pound) pork tenderloins, would you interpret that as totaling one pound, or one pound each? I initially read it as totaling 1 pound. So I thawed two (okay, not tenderloin because I'm cheap) but then the rest of the recipe called for so much marinade I decided they must have meant two pounds total, so I threw in two more, which are not thawed. So they will be unevenly marinating as they thaw, but oh well.
I would have said two pounds total. But if you're marinating for a while, it should be delicious either way!
Two pounds total means MOAR DELICIOUSNESS!
Lost hiker was found alive, but very cold. It is 37 degrees here in town. Don't want to think what it was overnight for him.
Yikes. Glad to hear it. Hope he has a strong recovery.
Back from our errands. We have dropped off a bunch of clothes for donation, and have acquired bookcases.
Managed to lock myself out of my apartment today (I realized it seconds after I hit the street). Fortunately between the BBQ fest and Star Wars day at the library, I was not bored waiting for Mom to be free to drive my spare key over.
And I stand corrected, the vendors wised up from last year and have about 7 or 8 food trucks selling BBQ to the masses. So tonight I'm gonna sample from a couple of them and try a slice from teh just-opened pizzeria before going there for a full meal.
WHY DID I JUST CLOSE THE B.ORG WINDOW???
Anyway, again, how shiny is this? It almost looks like the apartment I moved into. Well, kitchen and bathroom, anyway. Bedroom's 3 or so loads of laundry away from presentable, and I really want to have the carpet cleaned, and the cuddle lounge while I'm at it.
I did end up tidying the living room so they could vacuum. The final price ended up being less than she quoted me for just two rooms, so I don't feel like she was trying to twist my arm to inflate the bill or anything--they were quick, effective, efficient, pleasant, and not intrusive. Would use again--but let me not get so far off the track, at least not any time soon.
There's no way I can keep the shower doors clean enough to walk into, but I gotta at least remember to spray down the doors when I'm done.
Anyone watch the new Partners? What is it like? Everything I've seen Krumholtz in since NUMB3RS started has been sufficiently different from the multi-speciality whiz kid that I wonder who he likes being more--Mr. Universe, the nutbag in Harold and Kumar, or an Eppes.
I still do not get Gangnam, but marching band? That seems to subtract anything I like from either component of the matchup. Not that I made it too far in, again. As above, do not get.
Anyone watch the new Partners? What is it like?
Horrible. Michael Urie's character is basically Jack McFarland with the actual vicious evil extracted but all the self-absorbed annoyingness left untouched. Krumholtz is OK, but not really playing a distinctive character. Routh is a block of wood, and Sophia Bush is a jeweler whose only personality trait is mispronouncing "jewelry."
