Timelies all!
Federal government is closed today, so here I am. At some point I'll have to go out and remove the snow from my car.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Is Anne around? I am trying to remember what yard we used to knit Joss's baby things. I made mittens from the leftover for a friend and she has lost one. They were very warm, so I wanted to try to get similar yarn.
I'm pretty sure it was Plymouth Encore.

I very nearly ordered a long-handled dust pan off Amazon because I have not been able to find one in stores around here, except for janitorial level things costing $30 bucks. Fortunately, housemate said "There's one in the kitchen, here, see?"
Hence the need for cleaning and uncluttering supplies.

ION, the front page of USA Today has a story about mysterious plumes from the surface of Mars. Physicists are baffled because that shouldn't be possible due to lack of atmosphere. One even said, "I don't think it's real."
Has no one read "War of the Worlds"???

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

I don't think the Martians will come to Earth and invade--not after they've seen this Winter in Boston.

I don't think our weather will discourage beings used to an average of -80°F, but all the coughing, sneezing, and runny noses should scare them off if they know what's good for them.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Has anyone else ever wondered what a Fleet Foxes cover of the "Where oh where are you tonight" song from Hee Haw would sound like?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
No, but I'm wondering it now.
Where oh where are you tonight
Why did you leave me here all alone?
I searched the world over and thought I found true love
You met another and pthhb you was gone!
Great. Why am I wasting neuron capacity remembering that stupid song instead of, say, all the Presidents in order.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
You don't need to remember all the Presidents in order, you just need to remember where, for example, your keys are. So turn all those TV theme songs we are cluttering our brains up with into mnemonic devices for finding our keys.
