you never know what's coming down the pike

See, the thing is -- somebody sends you a YouTube link, and it's hilarious, but it's kind of a one-trick pony. What do you do? if you're really pressed for time, you keep clicking around, following the related links till you find something really puzzling.

Frank says there's no puzzle at all: it's just a fixup, and we're supposed to think the storm troopers are boiling the stegasaurus people with plasma bolts. I'm disappointed. I thought the stegasaurus people turned into the storm troopers.

Anyway, know I know who Dschingis Khan is.

Kind of a lost day yesterday, but I bought more small clothes on clearance. And today I have written almost eight hundred words in spite of IMing with the young man, whose current complaint is that the school is full of teenagers.

Ah, I was thinking the medical school was part of a university. So do they seem less prepared than most medical students?

I haven't read my list yet, to see if he posted. I was just checking email to see if the furniture manufacturer had replied and they had. The parts are coming from Canada, though, so may take a while. Apparently they just keep the pre-packed boxes in their warehouse in Seattle.

The medical school is part of an apparently immense university, but so far the only students Frank knows are medical ones, I think. I get the impression that the youngsters are academically only a bit underprepared, but they are very callow.

What furniture is still coming?

I thought Europeans were supposed to be sophisticated! (Okay, okay.)

Oh, the secretary is supposed to have one long shelf and two center gables and we got three long shelves. Jay had finished the lower chest part, so I'm just putting my meds on it. I got the secretary so I can put meds in the inside of the dropdesk part and not have to put them away when strange people are here*. Then there are two pieces on the bed where the veneer was damaged. Steve said it would be trivial to replace them with good ones when they come, so he went ahead and built the bed.

*I'm not worried about people taking them, they wouldn't be recreational drugs, I just don't like strange people knowing I take 16 meds daily.
