I learned that mall parking lots are a battlefield around Christmas time. 9:30 in the morning and people are fighting about parking spots. It's actually quite entertaining. I sat and watched the drama unfold for a good 15 minutes.

I learned that sometimes eating lunch isn't always the cure to feeling lethargic and blah on a Saturday. Sometimes, it sends me deeper.

Next time, I prescribe fixing spaghetti noodles while your partner is playing Warcraft and non the wiser. Let them cool and salt slightly to taste. Then grab a handful and sneak in there and throw them at him. Give a mischievous grin and wink and run back into the kitchen and prepare for battle. You can add sauce later

or not, cause I am immature and hungry which has lead to the food fantasy

FACT.

1. The philosophers who use the term 'pollyanaish' also tend to be the same ones who think world peace is impossible.
2. Marie Fredriksson has the look.
3. The Birthday Party is really quite good.

"ohms" are named after a scientist named Ohm, but despite that, they are not capitalized.

There's your weird English factoid for the day, courtesy of military research and development.

Also, in the military, "fuse" is spelled "fuze", and "material" is spelled "materiel". No joke.
