Without much ado, five minidoozies follow.

If it isn’t one thing it’s another, for our regular
Argle Bargle.
“I looked outside. Everything was soggy and I could hear
claps of thunder. How long will it last? Click on weather
and… um… Fire Weather? I can think of only one way
I’m getting a fire going in my backyard right now and it
involves a flamethrower.” It’s better than tornadoes!


 

In the unending time wars, the U.S. Postal Service has
struck a blow in Mouseville. An anonymous character
tipped us off, noting
“It’s pretty impressive that USPS can prepare a shipping label in the future.”

“Airline schedules have the useful feature of telling you
when a flight continues onto the following day or the day
after with a +1 day or +2 days notation.
Unfortunately, this airline has run into a bit of a rounding
error.” I recall just enough of my numerical analysis
classes 30 years ago to remember that this can happen and
you need to be careful about floating point. Which is still
one bit more than whoever coded up this thing.

And finally, for the last time today, clocks are hard.
“Starbucks has a weird pickup time!” discovers a famished
Brett

“I was hoping to get my food around midday.” Well.
Midnight is a kind of a midday, isn’t it?
