Oh poo
The battery in my 2-1/2 year old MacBook Pro is starting to swell. Good thing I'm on my way to Albuquerque - I can have it looked at at the Apple store while I'm up there getting the new refrigerator.

Ask What Surprised Them
I was afraid of flying for a long time and could only travel vicariously. When friends came back from faraway places, it wasn't just out of politeness that I asked what they saw. I really wanted to know. And I found the best way to get information out of them was to ask what surprised them. How was the place different from what they expected? This is an extremely useful question. You can ask it of the most unobservant people, and it will extract information they didn't even know they were recording.
