Buffy ,'Empty Places'
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.
Happy Anniversary Lyra Jane!
Also, I think it is funny and strange that in England, they call arugula "rocket".
It was rocket in NM also. I was all disappointed when I first had arugula to discover that the foofy trendy salad thing was backyard food.
We're three quarters through this thread. What are we going on about?
Well, Katrina, but it is nice to see COMM getting more posts these days.
[Edit: oh, 7*7=49, so it's like the result of the multiplication is being hugged by the elements in it.]
How sweet! A mathy hug.
Happy Anniversary, Lyra Jane!
Happy Anniversary LJ and Dh!
Cashmere, did the evil kitty wake you again, this morning?
Timelies! I'm going to go off and try to spend the day at work. I'm also hoping HOPING HOPING to hear about my car's disposition. Le Sigh.
About Bush's 8:00 p.m. press conference:
(AP): President Bush is planning a prime-time address to the nation on Hurricane Katrina from Louisiana on Thursday night.
Press Secretary Scott McClellan says details of the speech are still being finalized.
He says the president will use the 8 p.m. central time speech to discuss ongoing recovery efforts -- and what the spokesman calls ``the way forward.''
The administration's response to the disaster has been criticized as slow and disorganized, and yesterday, Bush's disaster chief, Michael Brown quit.
But McClellan says Bush intends to stress the "unprecedented'' nature of the hurricane that struck two weeks ago -- and say America needs to "come together to support'' Katrina's victims on the Gulf Coast.

Curious story on the news this morning about Shaquille O'Neal witnessing a man who shouted a bunch of slurs and threw a bottle at a gay couple. Shaq apparently called the cops and then tailed the guy until the police got him.
Timelies all!
I have Bones and House on my VCR, waiting to be watched. Not sure if I'll like either, but I'll give them a try.
Happy Anniversary Lyra Jane and DH!

Why is he saying this now? He should have said this two weeks ago. He's just going to spend an hour telling us what we already know. It's stupid.
In class last night, the professor said that she had heard that the president had gone on tv and taken personal responsibility for everything that went wrong. I cannot tell you how disappointed I was to learn that was an overly optimistic rumor. Stupid campus telephone game.

Nope. We worked it out, I think. We put up the baby gate at the top of the stairs (to keep the dogs and the cat) away from the doors. Shut the door to the nursery AND our bedroom and turned on the baby monitor. We slept undisturbed until I had to get up. The baby slept until nearly 7, so that's good, too. This might continue to work to everyone's advantage.
