Hi Handy, it's so nice to hear you're the president of the commenters club! That's so cool. Can you do me a favor? If you can, will you walk over to the Crash Course in Science CD and see if "Kitchen Motors" is on it? The guys from the previous show were too busy to check but maybe you can find a moment between pledges to check for me. Just if it's easy for you to do so. If not, no problem, buddy!

You don't know how he accesses it. There are ways. You don't want to know, trust me, but there are ways. I'll get you a Severance, Dude. I'll get you one by three o'clock. WITH nail polish.

On the book recommendations, This is an Interesting look at how 50’s nostalgia influenced pop culture into the late 60s & 70s. “Happy Days” is at the center of this academic study and jumping the shark. It’s very good pop culture history.

I just got a new battery for my surveillance phone and used a new dumb phone for the week it was in the shop. I have to say, it kind of sucked. But might have been better with a touch screen, texting with buttons is just awful.
