can't remember where I put it, and the battery has died so I can't use ICloud to find it..

Getting ready to go to an out of town wedding, I walked around unplugging stuff and getting things out of plain sight. Our house has never been broken into but it's one of those things I do. I remember tucking the ipod somewhere but it's not something I use very often so I didn't even give it a thought when I got back. STILL cannot find it.

What usually happens when I do this is I'll wake up at 3:00 am some night with a EUREKA moment remembering exactly where something is. So far hasn't happened this time. Wedding was June 2011.

*sigh*

is telling somebody your secret, thereby secretly adding a secret to their collections of secrets. Secretly, that is."

"I'm not authorized for that kind of information."

"But you are the head of security."

"Then what kind of head of security would I be if I let people like me know things that I'm not supposed to know? I know what I know because I have to know it. And if I don't have to know it, I don't tell me, and I don't let anyone else tell me either. Now look, we have tried most of the other ambassadors, why don't you speak to G'Kar, maybe he knows something about this ship."

"Under the terms of our recent treaty, I am not authorized to have any official conversation with the Narn without Centauri approval."

"So you'll ask unofficially. And I can give you reasonable assurances that the head of security will not report you for doing so."

"Because you won't tell yourself about it?"

"That's right. I never get involved with my own life. It's too much trouble."

"This is a very strange place you have here, Mr. Garibaldi."

"Thank you."
