insidious meme

I thought this was a metaphorical headline. Wtf!

I suspect this figure will only increase.

Radiolab had an excellent podcast about the USA and how we sell so much of our blood to other countries.

I have donated to the Red Cross maybe 2 dozen times myself, whole blood and about a pint each time. My hope is that it goes towards a good cause and not for just profit but I have no idea after I donate.

Mine conked out, too. Ended up getting a convection microwave and I couldn't be happier with the upgrade.

Ours died 2 years ago and we never replaced it. We rarely miss it.

I highly recommend the Panasonic inverter based microwaves. They have continuous power control rather than cycling on and off. They can do things like reheat/defrost meat without ruining it by creating hot spots.

Stop staring at them - especially if you're still on that beach!

That's why I insist on my proven, 44 year old heart.

Well, I was at a college basketball game and seeing people give themselves aneurysms screaming at any mistake...

Sky hook from center court for the win?

Was that you on the 6 o'clock news? Can't believe a single person stole that many cans of Rogaine.

Ouch. Hope it's nothing serious

No, I've gotten through both of them. Crazy that these hit back to back though.

Just stood in in line for an hour and a half to get the kid out of the local Junior High on lockdown. Loads of fun for everyone.

When are the feats of strength?

please use this Profile thread tomorrow morning with hangover reports.

@insidious meme Never underestimate how much people can appreciate new essential purchases. I remember the fridge we had before we upgraded a couple years back... *shudder* (and not because it was cold)

I certainly don't underestimate new fridges. A most important purchase! We got one a year or too ago. We use the old one as a cupboard.

Vaguely, but not really, related to fridges: New photographic-equipment dry cabinet delivered and installed :)

Many years ago our fridge crapped out while we where on vacation. The person feeding the cat wrote us a note. “ I think something’s wrong with fridge” we got home two weeks later. It was July. Whew!!

Where’s this teaser you speak of?

Fun stuff

Friends in California, take care tonight. I wish we could send you some of our Colorado snow. Be vigilant!

Are you having problems mutating?

(To remain insidious, I suppose that a meme must be able to mutate easily. The last thing you need is new drugs that aim to prevent that. Especially in ferrets.)

Mine was a saga of a kid faking multiple personalities and Navi being killed by Link irresponsibly disposing of a plastic bag. Plus counsellor trauma and other heavy shiz. And haunted houses.

I wish I was joking.

Half-asleep-dreamed that I was dying. Even thought of one or two things I should have told my wife, and answered myself, "too late now!" Was quite surprised to find myself alive and getting out of bed,
