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.
Sorry to hear that Fred.
msbelle, that sounds like it's going to be hair-raising in multiple ways. Good luck!
Who the hell shoots up a garlic festival!?!
I talked to Mom this morning, she's feeling better and the doctor told her the bacteria level is going down. The leg is still swollen as hell, so she's going to be there a while longer.

Seriously!
Who the hell shoots up a garlic festival!?!
Somebody looking for a crowd of targets.
I'm so sorry, Fred.
Ugh I am all of a sudden getting a blocked message on my work phone for this site. Only sometimes though, it says "adult content" HA!
I am still one of the luddites paying a slightly lower monthly bill for a not unlimited data plan on my personal phone. There is no WiFi access at work except for company devices.
A Facebook friend of mine (married to a long-time Internet friend) was at the Gilroy festival yesterday, although at least his group had gone home before things went south.
I had flashbacks to the Boston Marathon bombing, because the garlic festival is one of those homegrown popular events that is part and parcel of local identity and culture.
Karl - thank you for checking in.

Someone who wants people afraid to leave the house for the simplest of events. It's a terror move. This make people even more afraid to go to the county fair, or even shopping at WalMart. This is how you strike even more fear into the hearts of people. It's one thing when it's a big target in a city, it's a totally different kind of fear when it starts happening at the local gathering in a small town.
Good thoughts to Laura's stepdad, meara's dad, and chrismg's mom!
I am about to fall asleep at my desk. The air conditioning fans turned off a few minutes ago, which usually happens at 5, and the Pavlovian conditioning is real! I can't believe I still have to be at work. Also I woke up at like 4 and am not sure I ever got back to a deep sleep.
Fred, I am so sorry. Coco sounded like a wonderful cat.
Gud, I hope today is better, too. I hope you get the help and love you deserve.
All health and communication~mas to Buffista's parents today.
