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

So what % of people, when considering moving to a particular apartment, would google the address before signing a lease?

I find it disturbing that if you google my last address (even without 'Chicago' at the end) you get this: [link] Note the #2 search result.

(The link goes to a site where you can report and search for bedbug cases at specific addresses. For my address there were two or three tenant complaints of bedbugs, with a response from the management co. The dates on the posts are around the time I moved out (end of Aug, '09).)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I googled my current address after signing the lease, but before moving in. No bug reports!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

In the waiting area, there is a toddler throwing up in a stroller. The parent has said she has no clothes to change her. Feel bad for the seatmates.

Fingers crossed it's not you! Yikes.

I just googled my current address - apparently there was a toy store in the storefront of the building. Now I'm sad - the storefront has been for rent the whole time I've been here.

Tranquility Mission Can't Stop The Signal

Astronauts on the current shuttle mission found themselves woken up yesterday by music near and dear to our nerd hearts: "Shuttle crew awoke @4:14pET to theme song from 'Firefly,'" announced NASA's twitter.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

The parent has said she has no clothes to change her.

She could go buy a cheesy souvenir shirt from one of the airport stores and put the dirties in the bag.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The parent has said she has no clothes to change her.

Parental FAIL I'm sorry. Bring a change of clothes for a traveling toddler. Hell I'd bring one for my school age child. Not because I'd be expecting her to hurl, but just in case of spilled food/drinks or whatever. Plus what Suzi says. Go buy her a change of clothes.

On one flight with Dominic, Josh went through all 4 changes of clothes for the kid and 2 for himself. So I'm just saying. (It was an epic flight. Diaper blowouts, barfing, peeing... and it was only a 5 hour trip.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

ITA. Hell, I bring a change of clothes for ME when I'm traveling by air! (Last thing I want is to be stuck somewhere with lost luggage and no clean underwear, you know?)
