But a week is a measurement of time, not temperature... You must have been feverish to get the two mixed up! :P

Heh. Funny thing about that is that a body temperature of less than 96 farenheit is considered hypothermic. I managed to maintain that temperature for about a week and just felt sluggish and fatigued.

Isn't the entire point of this Fahrenheit monstrosity that one's ideal body temperature is exactly 100 Fahrenheit?

It's actually set so that the freezing and boiling point of water are 180 degrees apart and the 0 degree mark is the freezing point of brine.

Human body temperature is 89.6 degrees Farenheit.

98.6. At 89.6 you are, if not dead, on the way to being dead.

So I read something today about "the kind of book you don't buy, but steal". I definitely have heard that before, but where?
And what books?

Science textbooks are a good example.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

I don't swear while speaking. It's not really a conscious choice, just a habit that I've kept for the 17 years or so that I've been speaking.

I saw this and had to stop myself at "What the fu-".

Well you know, it could be worse. If I learned anything from Biology, is that the proteins of your body far prefer too cold over too hot. At two hot they begind to tear themselves apart, unbinding (there is a word I am forgetting for this) and completely breaking apart. At too cold, they slow down. Mind you, that puts them out of sync with the rest of the body, which can kill you. According to Wikipedia it's mostly improper and insufficient blood flow caused by a slowing heart and dilating vessels. Also a Pulmonary Edema.

The word you are looking for is "denaturing".

Draven is a champion on the game League of Legends. He is popular because of his incredibly hammy dialogue and general style. Here's a link to his wiki page.

And he is strong.

Which I only state because often popularity goes to the strong. Unless a character gets a reputation for being "broken" expect anyone strong to also be popular.

I've RARELY if ever heard of strong characters being considered "bad".

Apparently, last night's Windows 7 update associated all Office files with the latest version of Office, which I do not have. Trying to open a database or spreadsheet gave me an "Office is not installed on this computer. Would you like to buy it?". The links were all genuine MS links, and my old Office still worked once I fixed the associations, but that's actually quite sleazy.
