What is that weird white thing in my egg?

Via Yahoo! Sports:

That string is called a chalaza—pronounced kuh-LAY-zuh. According to the American Egg Board, eggs actually have two chalazae inside their shell. The chalazae are "twisted, cordlike strands of egg white" that anchor the yolk from the top and bottom of the shell membrane, keeping the yolk from getting busted before you crack the egg. In a fresh egg, the chalazae will be especially visible—so don't feel like you need to remove them.

Kitteh is IN the bag

Kitteh also likes to sleep on my turntable cover. I could buy him all the fluffy cat beds in the world. He has to sleep on the device I use to try to keep dust OFF of the turntable.

Ear Wormies

I know now that the Sam Phillips music from a little television show I like to call The Mighty Gilmoreans has at least two key doppelgängers. I know this because my brain keeps mashing them all together and playing them.

Examples follow:

For starters, if you've watched the show, these tunes are rather familiar:

My inner jukebox has matched this stuff with a little Beatles...

...and a bit of Traveling Wilburys...
