Early ,'Objects In Space'
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.
I didn't know there was an entire nationwide franchise that organizes seniors' moves into assisted living, conducts the move and unpacks everything, appraises the belongings left behind, runs estate sales, and cleans and sells the empty home.
Is it "It's Your Move"? They are a huge sponsor of my local NPR station.
This is an awesome review, ending with the punchline
That was a thing of beauty. What a magnificent smackdown.
On the Guy Fieri thing, I feel like people are taking it as a slam against that style of food, and I really don't think so. I think Pete Wells was prepared to enjoy the things that were described on the menu, and was disappointed with what actually came out.
Okay, my cousin teaches microbiology at a university in Pennsylvania, and does research and whatnot. She posted on FB that her research team is getting t-shirts made, but they want to have (her words) "street nicknames" instead of their real names. So she asked for suggestions for hers, because she can't think of one, and doesn't want them to just give her one. She said preferably science-geeky.
I told her I can science-geek pretty well, but I need to know her research area and/or what she teaches.
This is the answer: "Microbiology. Infectious diseases. STDs. Chancroid."
There is no nickname I can come up with that she's going to want printed on a t-shirt. (Okay, I'm considering "Infectious T," since her name starts with T.)
Any suggestions that aren't ridiculously dirty? (Seriously, the STD category [and I'm surprised she doesn't call them STIs] alone is a GOLD MINE. But all I'm coming up with is really, really inappropriate.)

Nope, it's called Caring Transitions.
In a total change of pace, this is a really interesting discussion about the New Jersey coastline post-Sandy, and what the prospects are for preventing this kind of damage in the future. Nice balance of financial necessity and physical reality.

No, I got that. He even called him on that in the review. Which led to the nachos.
Teppy, it's sort of like coming up with a roller derby name. I'll think on it.
Anthony Bourdain is probably laughing really hard at that.
Consuela, that's great news about your folks. And also a great piece about the shore -- thanks for linking.
