I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Always Anti-fascist!

When I was at the BareNaked Ladies concert last winter, there was a big screen so people could read messages texted to others at the concert and one was like "Marissa, will you marry me?" and people, like, riffed on it all night: Marissa, you can do better. Who's Marissa? Etc. Etc.

I'm not one for big shows - I would have liked to have seen them , but it gets too loud and too many drunk people for me. However, I might have been ok at theis venue. DH was on alert to take notes to see if I can deal with it. ( it is one of the indoor/outdoor venues. looks like I'd be ok outside)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Awww....Emmett and Matilda are both cuter than finger monkeys.
