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.
Ohio is blue (light blue, but still) on fivethirtyeight and Princeton, and yellow(?) on NYT (but still showing 59% Democratic).

Timelies all!
Thanks for the well-wishes! Dinner was nice.(and they gave us a piece of carrot cake in honor of our anniversary. Yum!)
Podcast recs for listening to while walking.
I like "The History of England." It took the podcaster a while to find his feet, but once he was toward the end of the Anglo-Saxon kings he hit his stride. I also like "Kevin and Ursula Eat Cheap."
Jesse, not Brenda but, the thing with the president's tailors was the last segment on Invisibilia the clothing episode (I JUST listened to it this morning).
My favorite podcasts: On Being, Invsibilia, Reply All, Surprisingly Awesome, Radiolab, the new radiolab legal one.
Laura, sorry about blowing up your wall.
msbelle, also, I heard an episode of Science Versus and it was fucking awesome. It was right in my sweet spot of data vs. implications. Good stuff.
