We had a new-to-us machine by 11:00 PM. It was all irritating but didn't feel full-blown panic!
YAY no panic! I'm glad it worked out, even with the irritation.
We knocked 'em deader!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
So far hurricaine season has only given us come cool waves and a little rain. It's a relief.
My Uncle's house has storm shutters and a big-ass automatic generator. In fact, his place is where everyone rides these things out. I have a husband (not my husband, but my cousin's husband who I get to borrow for such things so now I have a husband or at least husband access) to come do the storm shutters even. If we get whomped we're safe as milk... but I REALLY don't want to imagine the kind of anxiety R would go through in a shuttered house with her Daughter and SiL out of town.

Yeah, I really do need to put together that zombie apocalypse preparedness kit.

Speaking of preparedness FAIL, I just ran out of dairy product for my coffee.

Us too! I am about to make a milk run. Can I pick up some half and half for you?

A search on "pickpocket" at the Old Bailey site turned up many interesting cases. Here's one.
Theft > pocketpicking, 1st June 1677.
The next was a pickpocket who on the 2. of May seeing a young maiden dancing with the Milkwoman made shift to steal a box and 21 shillings 6. pence in money out of her Pocket, and according to method, forthwith delivered it to a boy his Confederate, who immediately ran away and is not yet taken. But our young practitioner was not so much Mr. of Art as to perform the Exploit clerely, for he was both perceived by the Girl, diving in her pocket and seen by another deliver away the prize, so that he was found Guilty.
