DO NOT declaw your cats. Also, consult a lawyer/doctor immediately. That said, I'm sure it's nothing serious, and rubbing a severed chicken head over the wound has been considered efficacious by some cultures. YMMV.

If I remember right, a thermocouple is something inside a heater unit, not part of the theromostat, but something that provides the current required to loop through the thermostat and make that circuit work (in other words, creates electrical current from heat).
Did I get it right? No. Of course not. Someone just tell me.

Miguel answered it all years ago:
you can get spanking fresh just-caught fish in the main links, XFM radio, and the links to dictionaries, should be shown next month in Cannes.[...] very carefully, avoiding obstructions. Every crash is a terrible price to pay for growing up [...] Pessoa is indeed horrendous, but can't find someone to cook it immediately, very lightly. Shopping lists are for losers. And so on, until you start blanching, searing and actually grilling - and he knew his drinks and bars: La Floridita and the mushrooms.
That thread made me laugh even more than this one. I've said it before and I'll take this occasion to say it again: majcher, or somebody, please bring back Genefilter!
