Oh, puppy, no! Yikes!
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Yikes, meara! Is the cord still getting power to your computer? Also, sigh of relief that neither of you was badly electrocuted!

I suppose a complete hazmat suit for the duration of transit would be impractical
Man, I would be down for that if I could get through airport security.

Quantas offered a flight to nowhere (flying over various Australian landmarks). It sold out in ten minutes.

Also - the Green Party is having a rally outside my office building. Their sound system seems to be turned up to 11 (periodically, I can feel the building vibrating). I have a headache ... may go home early.

I'd suggest you go outside with a "Stop Noise Pollution " sign, but they probably wouldn't appreciate it

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Speaking of autumnal goodies, let me spread the word about apple cider syrup. Get some non-alcoholic apple cider (aka, non-clarified apple juice). Fresh from a farm stand, if you've got 'em. Then dump it all in a big sauce pan or pot and boil it down until it's the consistency of maple syrup. That'll probably mean reducing it by 3/4s. Put it on pancakes, waffles, etc. It is so good! I made it toward the end of apple cider season last year, and I'm looking forward to making it again this fall.

When I was a kid, in the autumn we'd go to a local farm and get icy cold fresh cider and plain donuts fresh out of the fryer. I remember them as being THE BEST.
