Picture-in-picture feature: great for watching two football games simultaneously, not so great for trying to watch TWoK and DW: "The Pandorica Opens" at the same time.

*EDIT* Is there some sort of nerd honor for trying?

I think probably there is.

Additionally: Hair dye smells disgusting.

Auburn. My hair universally goes a shade of red when dyed, it just depends on the shade. When I dye it away from my natural blonde to a brighter blonde, it goes pink. If I dyed it black it'd go a really dark red/purple.

Possibly, but my folks are VERY funny about hairdye. They are particularly protective over my natural colour (which is sort of like straw coloured now) and any colour which would require me to bleach it to remove is a no go, including black.

As I had suspected, hair dye has in fact turned me into a redhead.

Also; We've uprooted the bumble bee nest! bit sad really but most of them including mamma bee went away.

Just read the last page on this. I think flooding the nest would have been a good idea. But whatever works. How did you do it?

Hammered the concrete into chucks and exposed it. Left it a few days to let them clear, and then simply dug it up. The overwhelming majority had already moved on to greener pastures. So it was just digging it up and moving it out. The bees that remained were very drunk and docile, seemingly from their death throws and so left dad pretty much alone. I was also going out on my moped at the time; the heat of the engine seemed to attract a few of them away.

Suprised no one got stung when you hammered away concrete so near their nests.
