31 December 2002A feverish suggestionIf you're in Connecticut and you covet a traditional fever thermometer with a column of mercury enclosed in glass, this is the last day you can buy one. (Disclosure: I own no holdings in thermometer manufacturers, CVS, or Walgreen's.) Posted at 8:00 AM to DyssynergyThank GOD for those environmentalists looking out for me. But alas, the law is for naught. You can't find any mercury thermometers on the shelves here. It was only a matter of time before they figured out that I bought them all, broke open the glass casings, and made one giant mercury ball to roll around my palm. You just can't have any more fun in Connecticut. I think I'll go blow some silly string in their faces. Posted by: Big Sister at 4:55 PM on 31 December 2002I always have fun in Connecticut. On the other hand, it's probably because I'm lost. Posted by: CGHill at 5:48 PM on 31 December 2002 |
