but it was awfully hard on the trees.
It definitely can be. And the trees can be hard on people. I had a near miss after one ice storm here while walking past some huge old trees that border the sidewalks the lead up to the Capitol building. I heard this snap and a huge thud behind me and a big old branch had broken off and plummeted 30 feet or so onto the sidewalk. I don't know that it would have killed me, but it sure could have broken a few bones if it had landed on me. Still gives me shivers.
Good luck, Sue.
I saw the most hilarious fingerless gloves the other day: they had stuff embroidered across the fingers. Stuff like "Thug life." I was dying.
Sue, I'd go back to bed NOW. How could you later regret spending the week sleeping?
In "that'd be an interesting precedent" gossip news:
The former girlfriend of Ellen DeGeneres is considering legal action against both the comedienne and her new lover, Ally McBeal actress Portia De Rossi. Chat show host DeGeneres ended her four-year relationship with photographer-director Alexandra Hedison last month and is now sharing her Hollywood mansion with De Rossi, who recently split up with Ringo Starr's step-daughter Francesca Gregorini. Hedison is now planning to take palimony action against DeGeneres, and is reportedly suing De Rossi for "alienation of affection" - a legal phrase dating back to when seducing a spouse was regarded as theft. However, Richard Barry from the American Academy Of Matrimonial Lawyers tells British newspaper The Sunday Times this could be difficult to prove: "She would have to prove the seduction took place in those states which still recognize the law, like on holiday in Hawaii. If she can do that, she could cause a lot of financial damage."
I have this "alienation of affection" thing. But I don't have anyone to sue....
Huh. Aaron carter news from IMDB. Apparently a mattress flew off a truck in front of the car he was driving, wedged under his car, and burst into flames. Which he then tried to douse with water bottles before being dragged to safety by his much saner girlfriend.
Dude better take a pass if anyone comes offering a Final Destination 3 role.
No discussion of
24?
Sophia -- Lilly and Garrett
were going out but broke up some time
last season. I believe.
That new cop? He was in an episode of
Angel!
He played (coincidentally) somebody named Garrett in "Players".
I did not eat oatmeal today either. Okay, technically I haven't anything today at all, but if I had, it wouldn't have been oatmeal, because oatmeal is teh gross.
Also of teh gross? The rain.
sumi,
I was so happy 24 is back, but sometimes it's so hard to talk about. Whack non-spoiled speculation: I think
Jack's new girlfriend
isn't trustworthy. I was hit really hard with the impression that
she said she was falling in love with him,
just to change the subject from
his request that they come clean with her father.
Do you think the
new head of CTU
is crooked, or just
unlikeable? I am wondering if the word got out from the FBI about Chloe's friend Andrew, or if new!chief was the leak.
Jack whispering? Still hot.
My TV has consisted mostly of the Blue's Clues musical that we got this weekend and has been demanded ever since.
re: 24 - I thought it maintained a really good pace. I've never watched more than 5 minutes of it before now, so I was entertained. Was it too obvious a red herring to have
the brother be involved with the Turks? Didn't Lukas Haas pay attention when his grandfather told him to be careful out among dem English? I also suspect the young turkish guy's american girlfriend. Is that just paranoia? And other things involving interogatives!?
I guess I have a new show. Huh.
