Fun read!
And now it's going to make my day more painful because it has provided an example of good and entertaining reading and now I have to go back to reading really really really badly written, boring articles and trying to pry data from their ungrammatical tangles.
Or I could just goof off for an hour.
Does anyone here watch The West Wing?
I do, but I'm still catching up from the 2 weeks I was gone. I'll get back to you on that line....
Allyson, I read the sample piece, and I cannot WAIT to read the book!
Ditto. Teppy and I are of one mind.
A Teppy thumb up!
And my thumb *isn't* up in that bizarre Punjabi way, either.

Allyson, the sample piece is wonderful. I want to read the rest of the book now now now.

Please verify with anecdotes your observation of this trend, or deny it utterly, or display indifference.
Don't make us give you an extraordinarily proud thumbs-down.
Heh!
There really needs to be an entire movie based upon this flag lowering ceremony. Or a Monty Python sketch. Or a Daily Show Special Report.
Baby Panda pile! I...I want to roll around amongst them! They'd probably bite, huh?
Seeing that Hurricaine Wilma is possibly heading for Florida, where are all the people saying huffily, "Why do people live in a state where hurricaines hit all the time? Why should we pay for people who live on the coasts of Florida? We should make them move"?
t sick of people saying New Orleans shouldn't be rebuilt
display indifference.
