1 I knew there was a 57.3876% chance that that would happen this year, based on your age, weight, and McNugget/Heineken differential

2 I'm sorry to note this here, but I didn't see an "e-mail me" button on your sidebar. Thought you'd want to know that the boxes on your sidebar are migrating a little to the left on my display (Mac/IE) and are obscuring some of the text in your entries.

3 Grr. This is one of those CSS issues that I had hoped not to face. The body looks fine in IE6/Win, Opera, and Firefox. The banner looks fine in IE6/Win and Firefox and has a small gap in Opera. Of course, since I don't have access to a Mac, that would be the one platform that it doesn't look correct on! I'll do some research and maybe some more tweaking tonight. I see from a quick Google that there are CSS issues involving absolutely-positioned elements between IE/Mac and other browsers.

The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps: "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator says: "Calm down, I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: "OK, now what?"

7 A person asks, "What is 1+1?" An accountant pulls out his financial calculator, punches in "1+1=" and punches in "-1-1" and says "two". An Actuary says, "What do you want it to be?" An student majoring in arts says, "Do you want fries with that?"
