I like Diane Rehm. Her voice used to irritate me, but then I found out she had surgery on her throat and felt like an ass.
I hate her voice even though I know about her condition. I'm cruel like that. She just bugs me. She just asked the author if dating on the internet is dangerous like the movie Looking for Mr. Goodbar.
Actually, her guest seems to know what she's talking about anyway.

And, hand to god he just said, "I say 'relative peace' because if you're talking, like, zero car bombings, well that's just not gonna happen."

He's doing a really good job of lowering the bar, isn't he?
I'm not listening, by the way. I've got enough messes to clean up without mopping my brains up off the floor.
What are everyone else's plans?
I'm missing FNL tonight, due to working at the restaurant. It's still a good thing, because I'll make money, but I predict annoyance at all the dates.
Valentine's day was really yesterday to avoid Valentine crowding, there was kid-free time arranged, dinner, and flowers. Nothing out of the ordinary Valentine sort of stuff.
I'm planning to do some cleaning and watch Friday Night Lights.
FNL is on the menu for us too!

One of the many Chicago newspeople gone national--I miss seeing him on Channel 5 news (along with the best newsteam ever, Ron Magers and Carol Marin--damn you, Jerry Springer!!!).
He came down here for something or another, and Mr. Jane was terrified (not really) that I was going to run off with him.
Check out Google today. Someone made a little mistake in the Valentine's logo...
Isn't the North Korea arrangement Bush is taking credit for (and should really), like, basically the same sort of thing the Clinton administration did? It's good that diplomacy is making progress with North Korea, but it's sort of the exception that disproves the rest of his foreign policy.

This project uses an RF receiver module to trigger a pulsing LED Heart when the transmitter comes within range. I made this for my fiance for Valentine's Day this year.
D'awww....
