Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hi Nilly! For my own part, I am sad but not offended that you aren't around more. And I'm so sorry about your father.
Random q for the group: Do you think it's a mistake to buy these plastic bins instead of the more expensive ones?

No -- depends on how they're going to be stored, and whether they're going to be thrown around a lot. Also, if they're filled with Really Heavy Things that are likely to stress them. If you're putting pillows and bedding into them, I wouldn't worry and take the savings and run.

They may have photo albums and similar heavy things in them, but they aren't going anywhere except the basement, so I'm just going to buy these.

Corn Flakes: I've been watching the MSNBC coverage of 9/11/01 this morning. Actually rather impressed by the professionalism of the broadcasters, and altogether how little they're getting wrong as they go.
Also that they were speculating about Osama bin Laden by 11 AM.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dammit. I recorded Arsenio, because I was curious to see how he was updating history, and what he was doing differently from the rest of the market now, but...
I don't remember 20 years ago (well, I remember The X Files--this I don't remember beyond roof-raising), and I don't watch other late night talk shows.
So? How did he do? What did he do different?
And I'm nervous--did Rizzoli and Isles make it to their summer finale before Lee killed himself? I'm scared to keep watching, but I want to see all the episodes he's in. Spoiler font if appropriate.

So the shipping on those bins (plus one other thing) was going to be $20. No thanks! I will get something else in person!
OR, I will double-check, and the more expensive ones have free shipping, making them the same price, basically. Sold.
OR OR I will go back again and see that they are way cheaper in the store.
