I love FNL.

Agreed. There's not an ep that doesn't end with me and Mr. Jane in tears with him yellling, "Damn this show!"

That look in Mac's eyes when he knew this could be his whole career. And then his talk with Coach. KILLED. ME. DED. Show! You made me feel bad for a racist!?!

Ooh, except I'm pretty sure Groton is "grotten" not "grow-ton." Unless it's pronounced differently in CT, which is definitely possible. See "grennich" and "greenwich," both in New England.

Kristin? Anyone?

Yep, Groton in CT is pronounced "grotten" (rhymes with rotten...not a coincidence IMO).

I've never heard of "Croton," so I can't help you with that one.

Found it! This is one of the many reasons I love FNL.

ita, I love black and cream -- less severe than gray, and also easy in the goes-with-(almost)-everything-else way.

Black and cream is an excellent color scheme for a classic car.

I've been listening to this and giggling today. It's a mp3 snippet of a recent performance at the Met where a soprano briefly loses control of her vocal cords: [link]

Heh. That's especially funny because she's doing so well up to that point and then she just completely spazzes it.

I guess I should just get over myself and realise that business formal isn't my style, so I should stop trying to find a way to force the square peg on pretty much no budget at all.

Maybe add a cool scarf or funky earrings? Perhaps a wacky pin?

In Generation X Douglas Coupland called this an "Anti-Victim Device" used to indicate you really, really weren't a corporate tool even when you were.

FNL: I think my favorite line (if I remember it correctly was CT and Tami sitting in the car outside the jail and CT saying, "All the other parents have picked up their perps, why can't we pick up ours?"

Hee. Oh and when Tyra says, "Where's the other one?"

And I really loved Riggins coaching the JV guys. (And that little bit where Riggins and Matt's coaching styles are at odds at the beginning.)

I just checked work email, and we got a full 8 hours of leave today. And since county schools are going to be closed, I bet they do give us at least a couple of hours tomorrow. Maybe if I keep deciding not to go in, they'll keep giving everyone the day off. Forever!

So if I can't get the car out of its glacier tomorrow, I'm not going to fret about it, since all of this goofing off has yet to cut into my vacation/comp time.

I will need to hike to the store tomorrow, though.

I love Criminal Minds.

Me too! They're hot nerds. Like us!!

What they said! I think Morgan and Garcia are my non-romantic OTP.
