I've been outed

I wasn't aware that my eyebrows were a problem, but The Onion has discovered my identity...

(for those who don't know me, they are off by only 1 year and 20 miles, and it is very likely that something here would have a dateline of Dayton)

it shouldn't smell like that Pt. 2

Another of my wife's scent adventures is some sort of thing that plugs in, and is filled with a purple liquid. Theoretically it should smell like lavender. As far as I can tell, it is full of cat piss--When I walked into the room, I literally started looking for wet spots on the floor until I traced the smell to the source. My nose must work differently, I cannot imagine someone thinking that scent is an improvement.

it shouldn't smell like that

My wife handed me a tissue and asked me to smell it. I was expecting a light floral...Instead I got a deep, unexpected snort of Vick's Vapor Rub. Menthol-scented tissues. Strongly menthol-scented tissues. Apparently my reaction was funny...

...and then later I grabbed another from that box, forgetting. I really don't like Vicks.

Ubuntu Update Manager continued

Update manager still doesn't measure up to the rest of Ubuntu. Still interrupts needlessly, still a resource hog. This is one of those things that bugs me about lots of software--The hard part is done well, but easy user interface issues are barely adequate.

Advance the video to about 1:20, turn the volume up (lower right corner) and put your drink down.
