Always thought colder water was better for flowers. Seeing your test results makes me reconsider my own routine. I'm going to try lukewarm water next time I buy lilies.

Radiohead teased their 'In Rainbows' live film for almost a year back in 2008. I mean, I just set up a Google Alert after the third delay notice. It finally went off when they dropped the trailer on a Tuesday in March. Maybe it's just me, but having that alert saved me from constantly checking. They released the full thing after the hype had cooled down a lot. So sometimes these delays are part of their plan.

My mom always bought the super sweet generic stuff when I was a kid, so that's just what cereal tastes like to me now. The fancy healthy kinds feel like they're missing the point, even if I know that's backwards. That fake strawberry powder dust is pure nostalgia, you know? I can't even enjoy a bowl without it.

Switch to trades for books with spotty schedules, that's my only real tip. I got tired of the Walking Dead delays too, and just started picking up the hardcovers. It's less immediate, but you get a whole chunk of story and the art usually looks better. Waiting for the next Cerebus phone book was way easier than tracking down single issues.

Those little umbrella mushrooms are probably just a sign of the wood breaking down. It happens all the time with untreated, damp lumber. Unless you're planning to eat them, I wouldn't stress. They might even help your soil. My guess is they'll dry up and vanish once the sun comes out for a few days. Your tomatoes will be fine.
