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 must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Good point, Burrell. Leifur was making a noise that didn't sound like a barking cough. It actually sounded like he was saying, "woof." He hasn't displayed any other signs of asthma, but I'll keep an ear out for it.

Re: artisinal porridge. My steel cut oatmeal with cranberries, walnuts, and brown sugar seems so mundane now. Yummy, but mundane. On the upside, it didn't cost $7/bowl.

I do have a bag of Bob's Red Mill Oatmeal to use up, so I guess I can keep experimenting using some of those hipster recipes.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I flavor oatmeal with Torani sugar-free syrups.

Active shooter at a local highschool. Two victims but no news on injuries. NOT CJ's school. But his school is on lockdown.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh Suzi, how awful. Why oh why, people?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

After a decade of marriage, Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel have separated, PEOPLE confirms.

NOOOOOOO! They were one of those marriages that I was invested in despite my total lack of personal knowledge or involvement.

One victim was a teen who was shot - so far only news. No word on the shooter. They are marching the students out to the football field and frisking them before slowly letting them go, so the shooter must be contained somehow, right?

Taye and Idina - say it ain't so!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

CNN is saying the shooter is dead. Tomorrow is the anniversary of Sandy Hook. So awful. I'm glad CJ is safe.
