Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Ah, thank you, Kathy. It's been bugging me. Like the blue lines in the snow in the downhill events. I just don't remember seeing them before.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

quester, no worries -- I think I'm just gunshy

the flags: I think we only see them on the screen. its like the line of scrimage on footbal fields (or whatever that line is they project -- and however you spell it)

I love when Italians win and start kissin. not just a peck on the cheek either. hugging and smooching and rubbing each others hair. its like porn for chicks. Even Shani joined in. Good times, good times.

I think the blue lines are really there -- they sometimes look smudged. I don't remember them before either.

Yeah, move ON. I'm wondering less and less why Shani doesn't feel like its a "team."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I heard all of the day's Olympics results on NPR during the evening rush. Including coverage of the press conference after the men's speed skating.

I've got Dogtown to watch for show research so I may just skip the rest of the TV tonight.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey, Allyson, I know you just shelled out the big bucks for glasses, but did you consider contacts? You're supposed to wear the glasses all the time, right? You could even get single-vision contacts and then glasses for distance or reading.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Question for the hivemind: I lost contact with my best highschool friend about eight years ago, and recently am resolved to get a hold of her again. Of course, now that I want to find her, I think her phone number is unlisted. However, I have definitely tracked down her brother (his real estate homepage has an excellent photo, so I know it's him for sure). Should I send him an e-mail, asking for Kathy's phone number/e-mail, or would that be too strange? I knew him fairly well, so he'll recognize my name.

I just feel weird about contacting him out of the blue.
