Here's to the jobma for JZ and others. I don't need mine until Novemberish, so feel free to pass it around until then.
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

Does anyone know if already-cooked sausages need to be tossed if they get to room temperature for a few hours?

Well, the power went out at 8:00 Monday morning, and I kept the door closed all day Monday and only opened it briefly a few times on Tuesday afternoon. The last time I went in there was probably late afternoon, and I noticed any lingering coolness was gone by then. Power came back on at 10:40 that evening, so all told, it was at room temp for no more than 6 hours.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If they've been in the fridge (and not sitting out on the counter), I'd maybe rinse them off and just make sure that they're heated through, but otherwise not worry.

Pepco is, indeed, the most hated company in America. People hate them more than Comcast. I haven't had problems - the lines in my area are underground - but it's been bad. Power goes out at the least little thing and stays out for a long time. And Pepco just can't or won't communicate, will say that the power's on as people sit in their cold, dark houses. The .. utility board? someone ... is saying that they're going to start fining Pepco for unacceptable "service". Pepco is now saying that if people want improved service, it's going to cost more.
And, just for the irony of it, the power went out last night - in the middle of a major heat wave - because of the heat. One of the houses that was affected was the mayor's ... think that'll have an effect?

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

Art Crawl!!!
In the week of continuing suckiness for my office: the a/c isn't working - not since the power went out on Monday. Apparently, their is a broken engine or motor or something which they don't think that they have on hand.
There is a box fan in the hallway.
Yeah, that'll do it.
