This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

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

I ran over something a few weeks ago, and the light went on then, and I put some air in the tires and it turned off, but then it came on again this afternoon, so I figured maybe it was a slow leak or something related to that. The light came on in the afternoon, when it was relatively warm out, but it wasn't on in the morning, when it was freezing, and I've never had an issue with the cold making the light come on before, and I've live somewhere with sub-zero temperatures that past several winters.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What kind of activity was it, Jesse?

It was like the Newlywed Game, where you put people in pairs and try to get them to match each other's answers, except with work-related questions.

That sounds pretty good, Jesse.

Hil, someone was just telling me the other day that if the air in your spare gets low for whatever reason it'll turn the light on, so you might want to check that.

My car is not that smart - it'll tell me if a door is open or my seatbelt isn't fastened, and if the lights are still on after I've turned the engine off, that's about it.

I thought I'd swing by the PO and get one of those flat rate envelopes so I could just drop off the present I need to mail in the morning, but I could not figure out what size I need or if the pretty ones would work, so I ended up not getting anything there. But I did get some coffee, and got it ground, AND left it in the car so I am almost sure to bring it to work tomorrow.

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

PV=nRT!

OMG I have no idea what this mean. I quickly ran through Penis (in) Vagina = ineRT, then the slightly less crazy Pressure Valve = no Right Turn, before I gave up completely.

That is hilarious, Burrell! It's the Ideal Gas Law: Pressure times Volume equals the number of moles times the ideal gas constant times the temperature (in kelvin). Temperature goes down with no leak (qty of gas stays the same), pressure and volume go down, to apply it to Hil's tires (maybe).

I learned it at least three times (Chemistry, Physics, and scuba diving), I'm apt to spout it under the slightest provocation.

Penis(in)Vagina=(i)n(e)RT is awesome! Something about imaginary platonic ideals, maybe?

So, putting 22 Jump Street on in the background while trying to pay attention to other things turns out not to work so well. My sides hurt from laughing.

Burrell, given when I blurted out pvnrt to the furnace guy, it sounded a lot like ' pervert' I'm adoring your interpretation.
