I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

Punishingly Intricate

oh good my mom talked to my cousin and he was in his off-campus apartment and hadn't heard what had happened. She sent an email out to let us all know right away. Hooray for good communication.

Oklahoma Bombing and Waco were both on April 19th.

So far I think this is the first big shooting on the 16th. Lookie here, a new way to remember my birthday.

According to my 'This day in History' e-mail, the 16th has been relatively free of historic tragic events since an English army defeated a Scottish force under Charles Edward Stuart (Bonnie Prince Charlie) at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. Ironically a bad day for kilt-wearing folk.

Now tagless for your comfort.

YIKES! An ex-coworker of mine lives in Blacksburg. That's just horrible.

My sister (April 19) sympathizes, Drew.

I'm having Highlander flashbacks. Bad wigs, bad accents, but at least Dougray Scott and Peter Wingfield made good eye candy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I'm watching Work Out on Bravo for the first time, and it is truly amazing how people can make their living on reality tv -- one of the trainers is Rebecca from the Amazing Race (with the ex-boyfriend with the wierd hair)! So of course Victoria Fuller comes in for a workout, of Jonathan and Victoria infamy. She's also a former Playmate, so of course The Girls Next Door threw her a baby shower, and now she's trying to lose the baby weight. Madness.
