I was thinking more along the lines of, "It's Friday and you can have scotch after work!" Though Corwood's is good too.

Bears Deny Placing Snow, Fog Machines On Dolphin Stadium Sidelines

MIAMI—The owners, coaching staff, and equipment managers of the Chicago Bears continue to vehemently deny ownership of the 12 commercial-grade snowmaking machines and six fog generators that somehow appeared on the sidelines of Dolphin Stadium late Tuesday. "I have never seen these machines before, nor has the Chicago Bears organization ever needed to use such things in the course of football operations, as our home stadium is usually well-supplied with both snow and fog," barely discernible Bears head coach Lovie Smith said while standing hip-deep in a snowdrift during his Wednesday-night press conference. "The point is they're here now and we'll just have to learn to live with it—football players, journalists, and prissy indoor-team members alike." Coach Smith went on to say that he would file a formal protest with the league to remove the domed roof that mysteriously appeared on the top of Dolphin Stadium Wednesday morning.

I am earwormed with Dora The Explorer - D d d d d Dora.

I do not know that song, so my brain has very helpfully supplied The Police's "De doo doo doo, de da da da" instead.

not necessarily good news, but a cutiehead mac story:

set-up, I have been emphasizing mac's birthday because the calendar in Ethiopiais all different, so it is a new day to him. Anyway, he has it all memorized now and asks about it fairly often.

Cute #1 - last night he asks very timidly if he will get presents on his birthday. seriously worried that he wouldn't.

Cute #2 - the he asked if he would get birthday for year 7 and 8 and 9 and 10... also or if it was just for 6.

Whereas I'm stuck with Ch-ch-ch-changes. Ah, the musical stutter.

the he asked if he would get birthday for year 7 and 8 and 9 and 10... also or if it was just for 6

You told him it was just for ages divisible by three, didn't you?

Ooooh, that's some kind of cute. Does he know about the cake yet? And the general air of You Are Super Special?
