'Shindig'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Gronklies, all!
Woke up early due to the construction still going on outside my window. Somehow I hoped that almost three weeks away for vacation would have meant they had it mostly done. Sigh.
ION, back from vacation and going into work in an hour or so. I'll be going in as a blithe and relaxed spirit. I intend to try to stay that way for as many minutes as the office sitch permits.
Sounds like a plan to me!
I can't say my weekend was restful (well, technically I can say it) but it was accomplished, what with the cleaning and the other cleaning, and the laundry and the shopping and the setting up of electronics. My new! phone is programmed with numbers, iBob has music imported, I'm dressed (with shoes!) and ready as I'll get for work....
Welcome back, JohnSweden. Good luck on your plan.
iBob
That's such a sweet name.
whee, top 100. Teppy's aunts are nuts. I am home for the week!
Vince Vaughn used to be so cute!
Have you seen Wedding Crashers yet?
Here's how stupid/lame I am: I enjoy the slightly puffy VV of Wedding Crashers because it makes him more like someone I could actually go out with, due to my own slight lumpy-ness.
Is that like people looking like their pets?
I knew a guy who looked like me (admittedly more extreme than Jesse/VV), except 6'6". I so wanted to have his childrens, the screaming of my selfish genes reaching a din.
Why Good Eats has looked so weird this season:
Yes Good Eats looks different. Food Network is converting to High Definition television and Good Eats started shooting in that format this year. Unlike standard definition or “SD” TV, there are very stringent technical requirements for HD and Food Network’s parent company Scripps Howard has equally stringent aesthetic requirements as well. We are doing our best to take full advantage of the creative opportunities offered by HD while staying true to our roots. I know that some die-hard fans don’t dig the look, but I’ll tell ya something…it grows on you. And although the cameras are big and clunky and persnickety and darned expensive, there are considerable up-sides, like a 16:9 frame ratio which I can’t even watch at my house, and of course the ability to really see how much hair I’ve lost in the last 6 years.

The only only woman I've ever known that looks like me is my sister. Occasionally someone mistakes her for me in family photos.

No. It's part of my whole couple parity theory.
