There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

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

I just committed a usability faux pas. I just walked up to someone whose name I could not tell you, and asked him to email me something.

So--does he know my name? I didn't even think about that until I was on the way back to my desk. How in hell do you pull that verification off without looking like an ass?

For next time...

Go up to him and yell "Say my name!"?

Scrape/brush the debris off and then use water. If you use detergent, your next pizza will taste like Ajax.

Also let it cool down gradually. You want to avoid it breaking in half from thermal shock. Storing it in the oven is fine.

This. I usually use the temperature on the pizza box directions, wait til the oven has buzzed that it's reached that temp before putting the pizza in, and leave it for a minute or two longer than the instructions (but keep watch to avoid the crust edge burning) for crispiness. And once done leave the stone out on the counter for several hours to cool before scraping and rinsing.

After the doc checked out my foot I mentioned my 2 day headache. She prescribed some vicodin for the head and foot combo and now I have the stupids. The head and foot don't hurt but man I'm a space case.

I have an official diagnosis of arthritis in my left thumb. Burning pain in the joint without any attendant injury, not getting better, so I figured it was time to see a doctor, just in case something got torn and I was just making things worse. Nope, ibuprofen and a fancy new thumb isolation brace. that will make the supervisors happy during a hell period of all-but-mandatory overtime and extra work.

So boo, on more signs of creeping decrepitude, but yay for no signs of "things that need surgeons for."
