Now tagless for your comfort.
I need to download the podcast from Fair Game. I missed it tonight and Faith interviewed William Gibson.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I will always love billytea for coining "Connecticutie." First abbreviation for Connecticut natives I'd ever heard that didn't sound ridiculous.
Aww. I rock!
Came back to the hotel to eat lunch, and laid around. Then decided we did want to go back to the zoo, and did so.

There are a couple of names in CA that I had pronunciation issues with. Sepulveda, I pronounced SepulVAYda the first time I said it out loud. Then La Jolla. Well. I don't think I ever said it out loud... I just figured out eventually that La Hoya was La Jolla. I'm sure there are others.
