Luckily, we're about to have the summer off, lisah! PS: I still love your tagline.

The mailman just buzzed me -- which is a miracle by itself, because I was convinced they just don't try to deliver anything except the pink card -- and I was all excited, because I thought it would be my dress from eBay! But no, it was my mug from public radio. Better than a kick in the head, but still.

Burke might be so pissed because she's so friggin self-righteous about it and he's a sensitive boy. She's all "hey, we're surgeons, we're tired, we're bad ass" and hasn't even attempted, "honey, I'm so sorry, you're a wonderful lover blahdeblah blah"

Trudy -- very true. Also GA: I missed this but apparently the Vinnie Van Lowe-actor's character was named Echolls! (This was mentioned on TWOP.)

sumi: I know I heard on my Fox affiliate that they'd be pushing their shows back by 20 min, but showing them in their entirety. I'm EST, so Prison Break will start at 8:20. My CBS affiliate doesn't seem to be showing the speech.

Sumi: bwaahhhhh

we're about to have the summer off, lisah!

Thank god! Because I don't really think I can give it up. It's a little like watching a train wreck but it's a very fascinating and funny trainwreck. Plus often pretty.

hee hee ME TOO! I can't wait for the new season!

What is Bush's speech about? I'm guessing immigration issues, but I haven't heard.

What do people think about sending thousands of troops to the border? I can't think of a reason this is suddenly such an emergency aside from pure political pandering.

Are all New England Buffistas okay?

cranky about basement flooding, over here, but more or less OK.

Also the proud new owner of a sump pump.

I heard immigration.

I think he's crazy, I think this plan is crazy, I frequently think he's trying to kill us all.

Considering the national guard is technically under the auspices of each states' governor and some of the border state guvs are currently cranky that they don't have their national guard units to deal with in state issues (oh, like the whole damned state being a tinderbox. Or let's say you aren't a border state but, I dunno, get whomped by a major hurricane, hmm?) what with them being tasked off to Iraq... you know what? It's a distraction. War isn't going well, there are these major Constitutional issues that you'd rather not discuss...oh I KNOW, let's get everybody lathered up about an ongoing, really complex issue that can be spun into easy soundbites! That's it! It'll look like we're doing something!
