Oh, yeah, seriously, have you ever been around a vuvuzela? It is the bane of hearing and sanity wherever it goes. Yeah, Doug, that would be appreciated, if you know what to look for, I haven't had a chance yet. Especially if you have insider knowledge.

WHAT?!?!? No, seriously, what? (wanders off to look up that research)

It made perfect sense to me, other than the word, 'speaker'.

A front loader should have a clean cycle that you're supposed to run it through (once a month or so, IIRC) -- perhaps now would be a good time to run it through that cycle. Juan can probably speak better to this, but the only time you don't want to use water is when it's on the skin, because it'll spread it before it dilutes it, but even in the cases of emergency, you still want to run water -- you just want to make sure you use enough water to completely wash it off. Juan, I realize this isn't your area of expertise, but is this something you know about?

It's one of those timeless albums.

Was released 40 years ago about a month from now (3/29).

I'm only on episode 6, but I'm loving this season -- it's the best character growth I've seen in any show since Deadwood. Just amazing. Also watching Blacklist -- Spader has some of the best charisma I've seen in a morally ambiguous character. And yes, I mean I like him even more than Frank Underwood. I just got to the episode with the music box.

The battery acid would have done some damage or discoloration to the sheets before the sheets transferred any acid to your face. They're more sensitive than your skin is, since they're not alive. Realize also that it would be extremely diluted. Your face is not going to melt off in your sleep, the sheets would be gone while still in the washer before there's enough acid for that to happen.

They said something about headphones without serials in the initial text, so I suspect they expect the thieves to obscure the serials somehow, either by filing off or somehow else.

Carrots, celery, and cauliflower with home-made vegetable dip -- yogurt, dill, and feta. Needs something else, going to try cumin.

Voivod, because I'm in that kind of mood

Steven Wilson, Hand. Cannot. Erase. It's quite great, if I may say so. Continues in the direction started by Raven...

They misspelled my sister's name! :\

From Tim Powers' Facebook post: Well that explains a lot.

Some crap techno spun by a DJ pre Infected Mushroom animatronics gig

EDIT: Oh Land posted this picture of herself:

Radioactive Man, Uranium EP -- those who dig Knucks' spinning will probably like this

That's still half fast. That's quarter-assed.

I think it's a 50 Shades of Grey reference, I don't get it neither. Do you see the handcuffs? That's the only thing that makes me think that.

I do the same thing with my hamper, LOL (and play Words With Friends on my phone or read Kindle book).

Lived long and prospered

House of Cards, Season 3 Just one episode, lollers
