Galavant is walking a very very fine line: it will either be everyone's darling of a show that will be very well received or the studio will panic and kill it after 2 episodes.

Brilliant!

I have to say the first paragraph almost made me think you were suggesting kiting cheques as a thing. Whew, I should have had more faith in the power of Lifehacker.

McBride is simply the Goddess of Acting and her "Carol" is the Grand Duchess of Kick-Ass.

I knew a flight attendant who swore they all refer to this as "crop dusting"

I hope Santa leaves several opportunities under your tree, in your in-basket, etc.

Don't you just love people who spent the last two weeks drinking hot chocolate and chatting about the presents they're getting and then decide YOU have to help them look good before they go on xmas vacation.

Sort of the opposite. Mona Lisa Smile made a 5 hour flight to London feel like 12.

I've been using Chronodex for the last few years. I tell people it matches the way my mind works - especially during the week where I can visually link something from a Monday meeting over to something happening Wednesday. Colour can be used to classify time (by project or billable vs non-billable.)

I should have come back months ago - it did work. Beautifully in fact. Just the level of access I needed - enough to setup SuperSU to control things, and a few, key root-required apps.

I'm sorry for your loss. It's good to hear your team-mates will give you space to get through this time on your own terms, doing what you need to manage your grief.

Maybe if they'd used a little up-tempo music?

It's not science fiction, but I spent a 4-day weekend consuming all 10 seasons of this. (I'm glad I found this graphic. In the UK and on Canadian Netflix it's known by another name that's quite rude in the US.) I did stop to sleep now and then.

Actually the most confusing sentence in the world is: "We need to add scope to the project but we don't have any more money and the deadline date can't change."

And pilates three times a week. Mustn't forget flexibility.

It's really too bad she's been playing (and being damn good at playing) Liz X, because Sophie Okonedo would make a FANTASTIC Doctor.

What is really cool is you are self-aware enough to see that and that is the BIGGEST step forward. Honestly! I try to pause for a count of 5 before speaking when I sense I'm in danger of being, as my boss says from time to time, "a little too direct."
