"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Apparently the 13 pages for a 600 word post is for advertising dollars.

But there has to be a better way.

There HAS to be.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

12 pages of ads before you get to the one page of content?

A co-worker of mine who is a marathon runner.

Very cool!!!

I have wanted to apply forever. I figure I have little chance of getting picked but at least I will have tried.

And it's all thanks to ND, who provided us with a VCR to make the DVD-VHS transfer of our application video (if you can believe it, they only accept submissions on VHS).

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Giggling at the "Joseph Smith is My Homeboy" t-shirt on SYTYCD. Too bad that guy wasn't much of a dancer.

OK, question for y'all--I want to plan some SYTYCD viewing parties. First I'm going to just have people over for a "you know you want to get into this show" party--show some good stuff from the past few seasons (I'm a bit limited on that--you tube things, and then I've only got the last couple eps of last season on my TiVO--I WISH I still had Season 2 on TiVO!) and I'll show a bit of the auditions.

But for planning regular viewing parties--what days of the week is it airing this year? Show/results show? I honestly don't even remember how this works...
