Actually, it's Thursday night.
Whoops, sorry for the false alarm. I swear I read tonight, though, so I'm going to say it's Yahoo News's fault.
I can beat up demons until the cows come home, and then I can beat up the cows.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why does he always speak on Thursday nights? It isn't Must See Bush night.

Because books.
But Survivor starts on Thursday night...

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
OK, I have the most shallow DVR question ever. The president is apparently going to be on TV at 9 tonight. Do I need to do anything to make sure I get all of my shows?
If it appears on the guide, you're ok. If not, you may want to add an hour to the expected taping time.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Dude! What is GWB about, always scheduling his press conferences for Thursday primetime! The networks will soon be in open revolt, because Nobody puts CSI in a corner!!
In the annals of Clothing I Want:
fiery red T-shirts bearing a portrait of a beret-wearing, Che Guevera-like Johnny Damon above the line: ''Resist Yankee Hegemony! Wage Relentless Struggle Against the Steinbrenner Clique! Strive to Emulate Comrade Johnny!"
As described in the Globe this morning. It's not just that it's a pro-Boston, anti-Yankees short, and I don't care two figs for Johnny Damon, but I have such a soft spot of hilarious fake-Politburo propaganda.
In the annals of phone solicitations: I let them complete the first round of the pitch, say, "No thank you, I am not interested," and hang up immediately. Easy-peasy, no fluster, and the sales shmuck can get on with his/her quota.
In the annals of beets: love beets, steamed or boiled. Cooled and tossed in a salad is nice. Pickled beets are not right -- why would you need to pickle a vegetable designed to keep for months in a root cellar?

But Survivor starts on Thursday night...
Ah. That explains it. That makes a lot more sense than pre-empting HOUSE (and probably at least part BONES).

For Thursday, I should be OK, but good to know for next time.

Ooh, I would like that too, Nutty.

What is even happening?
I love beets, I just got tired of them when I still lived with my parents. I do not think, however, that I would want one on my burger, because that's just wrong.
Pickled beets are not right -- why would you need to pickle a vegetable designed to keep for months in a root cellar?This is what I thought, and I resisted trying them for most of my life. Then my mother got Ben to eat one when he was a toddler, so I tried them myself, and they're not bad.

Herding cats for fun
Funny how all the phone fear stories have made me feel so.much.better. about having to psych myself up to make calls and how I'd rather scrub floors than be a receptionist. I may be a weirdo, but I have the company of imaginary friends on the Internet.
I may be seeing the Shrub instead of House tonight? Blast his oily hide! *weeps dramatically*
