Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

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

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

Okay, I found the terminal window. What do I do next?

I don't have a mac here, but I think it's this:

ls -l | lpr

Assuming you have a default printer set up.

Of course, there's the problem of page feeds. You need to force a page feed to get the last page out, right? I forget how to do that....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, I think my boss will never learn that there is effectively no difference between after 5 on Thursday (when the U is closed Friday), and first thing Monday morning.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Huh. I have my doubts about the accuracy of the weather information for Fairbanks. We swing a lot wider than that, usually.

Oh, and this is fun:

City-data.com crime index = 446.1 (higher means more crime, US average = 330.6)

Go Team High Crime!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It printed the initial view of a new Finder window. OMG, it printed! Okay, I definitely need to figure this magic out. New tricks to be put up my sleeve...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Town where I grew up is 88% white. 25% with Irish ancestry, 24% Italian. Pretty overwhelmingly houses built either in the '50s or before 1939. 24.3% of age 25 and higher have a graduate or professional degree, which is much higher than I would have guessed.
