lechacal…Park Ave was a sea of Hasidic Jews . They’ve been protesting in front of the Lever building on and off for the past month or so. But tonight they have 4 blocks of barriers set up from about 50th to 55th street….10′ or so of sidewalk plus all of the parking lane and one lane of traffic.
They’re protesting some company that’s doing something with jewish graves somewhere….not really sure but it was filling up fast when I left work and there was a lot of pushing and shoving going on…lots of police too.
M4L- let me let you in on a little secret- stove tops. You can do considerable damage with just a stovetop. Trust me- I know.
By the way the microwave was invented in 1945- well before I was born. The first oven weighed 750 pounds and stood 5’6″ high (taller than me too!). (Inventor of the Week archive)
“CGar, I don’t want you to get a swelled head or anything, but I have been seriously missing you. I hope everything is going ok – I’ve been putting out good vibes for you…”
Thanks, donatella, babe. Will fill you in offline.
bxgrl, thank god microwaves werent invented then yet else your parents would really be concerned – ie you microwaving all sorts of stuff for experiments
Or, Lech- you could get them a chemistry set, as my parents did for me (along with a telescope and a microscope). Of course nearly blowing up the bathroom stopped them from also buying my the biology lab set I really really wanted.
In lieu of the biology lab I took all my stuffed animals into the bathroom and operated on them, playing “Heroine Vet.” That was when Mom began to worry if I was going to be a serial killer 🙂
Oh. Well I really with they would STFU. It’s annoying.

And, that, cat will stay out for the night . . .
