    Today, Friday the 13th of October, the moon entered waning crescent

    The Moon orbits around the Earth once per month, the angle between the Earth, the Moon and the Sun changes; we see this as the cycle of the Moon's phases.

    Quite frankly, I thought the same WITH the laugh track intact. I ended the cycle by changing the channel.

    If you have 2 choices and one is taken away you now have Zero choices.
    Ummm, wouldn't you actually go from "1 choice with 2 options" to "no choice because only 1 option"?

    Google Street View already shows me 3 views of my house, each roughly 4 years apart.

    Heard of Google Maps and Google Earth? Well there's also Google Moon, Google Mars, Google Sky (think Hubble Telescope), and a Pluto overlay that you can import into Google Earth.

    Watching someone switch from laughter to crying is sad. Watching someone switch from crying to laughter is terrifying. Apparently, it's also illegal if you aren't "in" the house with them. But that's what windows are for, right?
