Random Thoughts X: Impromptu Interpretations

[shadowplay]

I have a handheld grater for my feet. Works great.

Use a pumice stone. Using the metal grater on callused skin just makes the skin harder in the long run.

 

[Synobun]

It must be a very long run because it's been eight years so far and no problems yet.

Winter coat now out of storage. Shortest transition ever? I don’t think I had the thing on for a couple of weeks and I’m already cycling through.

48F/9C here.

This isn’t in the weather thread because the main point is transition time between coats.

 

[Synobun]

9C is maybe weather for a summer coat. Why winter coat?

 

[Ajidica]

Heck, 48F is still solidly in 'just throw a flannel on top' weather for walking to the grocery store.
Come on amadeus, you lived in Minnesota; you should be tougher than that!

Cold! It got warmer midday so I did end up switching coats.

Usually when I go for a walk I'm out for at least an hour or two.

Unrelated: I was reading about some mental disorders on Wikipedia and I don't think I meet the criteria. Not having any sort of medical qualification I wouldn't make such a diagnosis anyway. It was still interesting to read about some of the things, though.

Is not thinking one of the criteria?

Doctor Google is not your friend. If you are seriously wondering if you have a mental disorder, see a doctor or mental health professional. It's impossible to diagnose yourself as you cannot be objective.

My (undergrad) psych professors wouldn't even let us look at the DSM.

But it is such good light reading. The plot is a little hard to grasp, but hey, they can't all be Stephen King novels.

Is Rage Against the Machine considered dad rock yet? I just want to get it over with.

their music is occasionally played by old US politicians who entirely miss the point of their music, which would point to yes

Rain coats. You don't want to be caught in a downpour or hailstorm without one.

I checked Wikipedia. All four members are eligible for AARP cards.

Is it wrong of me to think Sean Connery dying means at least theres some decent films on?

What does one have to do with the other? If you like his movies, watch them. If not, don't.

It would be factually wrong if you were here, because no films featuring Sean Connery have been on this week, unless you count Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, where he appears in a desk photograph.

Also, The Fiddler on the Roof was on this afternoon, and it is both awesome and Connery-less.
