-- I have an awful headache right now, almost to the point where I just want to try and go to sleep regardless of new SPN and Never Mind The Buzzcocks. Anybody got any surefire headache remedies other than knocking myself unconscious or drinking myself into a stupor?

-- My mom lost 28k out of her401K. Yikes doesn't even begin to cover it.

-- Don't mess with scientists, John McCain.

That article about the planetarium is awesome. I'm glad someone is delivering the smackdown about that remark. :D

That part really got to me. Out of all the bills that exist out there, he's bitching about three mill for a planetarium?

Hell, that's just yet another reason to vote for Obama. If we don't keep an eye to the stars, we're boned.

Don't mess with scientists, John McCain.

The TOP OF MY HEAD FLEW OFF when he dissed the planetarium projector.

Aaaaaaand my quarterly 401K statement is getting burnt on the back porch, to keep me from looking at it. (Not that there's much there to begin with, but the percentage loss makes me weep.)

Aspirin, lots of water to fight dehydration, caffiene (to open the blood vessels), steam (also to help open you up), Two Benadryl Allergy/Sinus/Headache to knock you out so hard you don't wake up. =\

Word to all of those. Having a lie-down in a dark, quiet place is helpful, too, whether or not you go for the Benadryl "solution".

Today at work one of my friends talked to someone who lost FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. I thought I was going to die, right there in my cube. I can't even imagine that.

God, I can't even imagine that. I don't even think I've earned half of that in my life so far.

I know. I talk to people all day who are freaking out because they've lost 20%, 30%, 50% of their 401k so far this year and all I can really do is empathize and try to not look at mine EVER.

Some of my emergency brain pain equipment is bread, Gatordade, cold packs to the neck (yes, neck), salty snacks (Funyons, for example) and mindless TV and sitting up.

For the last two, turn on some familar comedy (low volume) you don't have to really pay attention to and sit up in a comfy chair with your head tilted back. Close your eyes. And the cold pack on the neck.
