I always forget that "presently" and "disinterested" don't really mean what they seem like they mean.

And yet I get paid to edit. Stand back and marvel at that shit.

Let me make everyone's night a little surreal with the best damn headline I've read in a LONG time: Shark Falls From Sky Onto California Golf Course.

This is why I don't golf, yo. Because shit like that happens.

I change a lot of "since" to "because."

I'm sure we could stand having our hearts decimated. I'd guess there's some stuff up in there we're not suing.

Two questions, and I forget the first:

2. How do you find good pictures? (This has some sub-bits, but it's still technically the second question)--say, how do you get to a picture you know exists (say, Rockwell's Rosie Riveter--first you image search to see what it looks like, but then, how do you end up with the highest res, best quality version?) (or if someone says-I need a picture of Benedict Cumberbatch where you can see his shoes--as hi res as you can?) (Or--I need an old man with frying egg--it can be on him or a plate or whatever, as long as it's in the picture. It should be mostly blue?)

Oh, right, I remember the first question--evaporated cane juice. My Just Orange says 0g sugars, 0 calories, but there is evaporated cane juice, which is basically some of the way to sugar. I'm from Jamaica--I've done the tours. Of course it's sugar! If you put that amount of sweet into them with white sugar (or even brown) would the sugars or calories be higher? Or is this just for my health, because Wholefoods is pretty rhapsodic on the topic. Kind of a mood killer, really.

Know what else is mood killing? Starting a scrabble game with a seven letter word and they're all singles. SATIRES doesn't give you that much. Sadface. I need a high word over 100 points, dammit.

I buy the evaporated cane sugar because I think it tastes better than the more processed stuff but I hate it when they use "evaporated cane juice" on the ingredients list. It's sugar!

They can say there's 0 sugar or calories from sugar if there's less than a certain amount, a certain percentage.

must have quite the reputation as a rogue business analyst

What's a rogue business? :P

Last minute Happy Birthday, Brenda!

I'm not sure that I can really have private conversations with 15 different students. There's just not enough time.

Do all 15 at once?

I can see not wanting to shame them or whatnot in front of other students, but in front of one another?

Skipping yet again because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Fiona's birthday.

Happy birthday, Fiona! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
