Thundersnow? Isn't that an AC/DC song?

Ah, the joys of WNY weather. Almost makes me glad I live in New England, where Nor'Easters are miserable, but not apocalyptic.

Anyhoo, congrats to Chad (whom I have not seen in nine long years) on his new home. When next you see Chad, remind him that Lou thought he was mentally challenged, and therefore capable only of pushing carts.

If it’s something you don’t like, it isn’t an option. Whenever possible, do only what you wAnt to do; you can’t ever get back the time spent doing things you don’t want to be doing. You can’t get rid of the effects of time spent unhappily, they always stay in you somewhere.

Do not go to Trenton. Trenton is not a nice place at all. I hear it is worse than Orlando, and that for your first several months there, they make you dress in a giant tutu and attached paperclips to your nipples. Your name, and the only one you will respond to is Sandra Dee.

This is all true.

You know what I hope you do, but that is purely for selfish reasons.

mmmmmm….. no, cos I can see that it’s there; the need to re-orient seems to have something to do with the time-line or something, and how it’s going to move through it. I really can’t explain it at all. The closest thing to it I’ve ever come across is a science-fiction book called The Revolving Boy, in which a child from another star system frequently during the day felt the need to perform a series of movements to ‘unwind’ the changes in its position that he encountered in going through the days events; he needed to do this to feel where he was in relationship to his home world, to feel where it was.

Perhaps this is a subconscious desire to ensure that the other side of the shirt is still there. It’s unsafe to make assumptions, after all..

Yes, I’m aware that this goes far beyond preferring one clotheshanger to another. :D

Ah, yes. But there iS a difference somehow. You can just feel it. Sometimes when I’m about to put on a t-shirt, something doesn’t feel right, even though it’s oriented the right way to put it on, so, depending on the exact feeling I’m getting at the time, I re-orient the shirt. I may throw it up in the air rotate it counter-clockwise 360 degrees on a vertical axis so it comes back in proper position to put it on, but now it feels right, as though it had to move in space to be properly aligned in the time-space continuum, as though that move had to be made before it was put on. And yet there is no thought in my head on the infrequent occasions that I do this where it seems like I think it would be bad luck or any such thing to go ahead and put on the shirt without rotating it first. I have no explanation for how it could possibly feel any different, yet it does, even though I’m usually quite the rationalist.

I wonder if there’s ever been a scientific study of this sort of oddness.

Yeah, and I’m liking it a lot as long as the comet doesn’t strike Earth directly and destroy us all. Whimsy is good.
