A question of validity: curling, as a sport
margolia has just spent the past ten minutes (earnestly!) attempting to convince me that curling, if all things, is a valid sport (and not the sporting-equivalent of mumus). She also, I am hoping insincerely, tried to argue that curling deserves to be an Olympic sport.

Hilarious.
Uh, except ( Read more... ) -
Overnights
3:21am, stuck in northern jersey doing a remodel/rework of a store that met with my regional manager's disapproval. We're working 9pm to 7am, and I'm beat. Hopefully we should be done tomorrow, but we're not sure. I might be here longer...
Highlight of the night- moving an aisle fixture using electrical extension cords. Seriously. I think I'll post ( Read more... ) -
