puncturing things and killer consumer items

Today I learned how to drill a hole in the garage ceiling with a hole saw. Thus my husband was able to finish the pipes for the central vac, and I found out that a 50-foot hose is overkill. We could probably reach the entire house from one outlet with a 40-foot hose, which is still, according to everybody with any sense, a silly length for a vacuum hose. Apparently 35 feet is the upper limit for a non-silly hose.

In other news, killer bees don't like lawn mowers, and they will kill you over it, and CDs will kill you, too! Well, maybe only if you chew on them, but apparently in combination with our cell phones, we'll be going the way of the Roman Empire any minute.

In all seriousness, the fact that the US government has decided to worry about bisphenol A during this administration kind of freaks me out.

Don't worry Miss Molly, it's only the Dems asking questions and, as the report says, "Last month, in response to questions from lawmakers, the FDA said it had disregarded hundreds of government and academic studies about the cancer risks of BPA and used just two studies funded by the chemical industry to determine that the chemical is safe." EPA won't be doing squat on this and other toxic issues until the Dems are back in the WH and control Senate/House. And even then, we'll have to see.
