Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

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.

quester, it might be related to what was pissing me off about him so much - he was certainly talking to her like she was having a meltdown (and using lots of lovely therapy speech to do so) and it seemed like she was almost buying it herself. The other couple was pretty awful, too, though. I am kind of loving the coal miner couple, way more than I expected to at first.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Via Boing-Boing an interesting (I'm not saying valid, but interesting) tip for checking your luggage while forcing the airlines to take extra-care not to lose it [link] :

A "weapons" is defined as a rifle, shotgun, pistol, airgun, and STARTER PISTOL. Yes, starter pistols - those little guns that fire blanks at track and swim meets - are considered weapons...and do NOT have to be registered in any state in the United States.

I have a starter pistol for all my cases. All I have to do upon check-in is tell the airline ticket agent that I have a weapon to declare...I'm given a little card to sign, the card is put in the case, the case is given to a TSA official who takes my key and locks the case, and gives my key back to me.

That's the procedure. The case is extra-tracked...TSA does not want to lose a weapons case. This reduces the chance of the case being lost to virtually zero.

It's a great way to travel with camera gear...I've been doing this since Dec 2001 and have had no problems whatsoever.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Is anyone else watching Studio 60? Whee! And to think I almost blew it off.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Are you watching on a delayed basis? I thought it was on Mondays.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

TAR: this has to be overall the most likeable field (so far) in the past couple of seasons.

I really found myself wishing, though, that the dysfunctional couple female half would have accidentally put a flaming arrow through her companion, which would have so served him right.

Art Crawl!!!

Theodosia! That would have been comedy gold!

Lee, it is on Mondays. I caught a rerun. Maybe there was discussion and I missed it. Or not.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Lee, it seems like it's going to be replayed on Bravo on Sundays.

Question for the hivemind: What can I do to relieve the pressure in my sinuses if I have no decongestant and sleeping in a hot shower could result in the larger problem of drowning myself? (Though that would relieve the pressure.)
