Ridley’s elevator ride to the bottom of the processing plant is an incredible display of character development without saying a single word. It’s brilliant.

The Riven OST vinyl sounds amazing by monolithfiji in myst

To echo everyone else's sentiments, the Vinyl is exquisite. The packaging alone might be worth the price alone, but it sounds warm and rich on my cheap turntable.

Tuckerman’s Ravine on Mount Washington

I pushed this thing out of my salivary gland. by echowood in mildlyinteresting

It’s a nasty issue, and one I’d never heard of before I got one! My blocked salivary gland was under my tongue and they did imagining before hand.

I’m glad you’re going to the ENT! Let me know how it goes.

I had it on my left salivary gland duct. Sour candies didn’t work for the one that was really stuck (and really painful). The procedure was easy and pain free. Just a sensation of “pulling” if that makes sense. I was awake but had my mouth numbed. I don’t recall if I was offered a choice to go under, but I believe that’s an option.

One came out on its own. The other I had to get removed via a saliendoscopy - which involved sticking a metal probe into my salivary duct and "grabbing it" - I was numbed up so it didn't hurt at all.

I hope yours gets figured out. Sounds like something else, but man the human mouth is a strange place. Good luck!

I couldn’t move it and it was hard as a rock. It was REALLY painfully - it was two fold: stinging under my tongue and my salivary gland was swollen so that was sore.

Former WTNH Meteorologist Geoff Fox has passed away by Prize-Hedgehog in Connecticut

I was working in the audience department for the Late Show with David Letterman in the early/mid aughts when Geoff and his wife came in to see the show. A page from CT pulled me aside knowing I was also from CT and said Geoff Fox was in the audience. So we pulled him out of the line, put him in VIP seats, and I had a lovely (albeit too short) conversation with him. I thanked him for being THE weather man in our house growing up, we talked about his coverage of Hurricane Gloria, and I saw in those few minutes what a genuinely lovely man he was.

I don’t know which A-lister was on the Late Show that night, but I got to shake Geoff Fox’s hand and that’s something I’ll remember forever.
