The Life of BrianEHS. Exploding Head Syndrome. Apparently, that's the diagnosis for the WhatsApp notifications I've heard the last two mornings at 6 AM. Oh, my phone is always off at night. Not on DND but OFF! (Edit: EHS not EMS. I'll need the EMS if it does explode. My SIL said, 'Sounds like a blast" which, when you think about it, describes the syndrome to a TNT.)
@MelissaBearTrix #hhgttg, ofc... or if they banned that, then the scripts for #HolyGrail & #LifeOfBrian... & #RedDwarf scripts in my handbag for emergency fallback.

$252 in gas and electricity charges for the coldest January on record here in Toronto doesn't seem too bad. The heat pump switches to gas at 0 C, maybe I should change that to maybe 1 or 2 since the fan runs much longer than it does on gas.

Tip: Leave them to try out for a week or so. The coffee falls out quicker than wind out a duck's...ok. Well, pretty quick.

Richard Quinn"There is a grimly Kafkaesque irony in a philologist patiently arguing before a disciplinary panel that a colleague’s use of language shouldn’t be wrenched from its setting but understood within the messy, unpredictable reality of human interaction, only for the university to strip his own words of context and investigate him for daring to mount that defence."

The case of an academic at the University of Manchester who was suspended for using the n-word during a disciplinary meeting while defending a colleague’s context-specific use of language lays bare…
Toronto peeps, if you're trying to get your property tax notice online, the site didn't work for FF but worked fine with Chrome. Maybe my settings but if you don't succeed try another browser, bowser.
