What is the problem with `$this = $(this)` ? You used `that` but I didn't get that.

  Once I set up an alias for `this` I try to only use that from then on to be consistent. The reason I do that in the first place is in case I need to pass it to a callback, I can just use the alias and don't have to worry about when `this` will be the global object

    If you minimize your javascript, `that` can be minimized, `this` cannot.
