'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
What started out as an attempt to get my TV recycled turned into an unmitigated disaster, with the plastic shell of the TV shattered into pieces in the lobby of my building. (Thankfully, the tube stayed intact). So the TV isn't going to get recycled, but at least it's out of my apartment now.
TV is bad for you!
In defense of American Girls: While they may be corny, overpriced and have nicer clothes and furniture than I do, I'm happy to buy my nieces something they love and that isn't all about boobs, boys, make-up and wearing short skirts. The eight year-old gets enough of that!
I had something else, unrelated, but I doubt I'll remember until I get through this cup of coffee.

Only if you try to break up with it.
yoiks! dropped TV = scary.

ITA. Outside of the extreme expense, I sort of like American Girl stuff. I'll never be able to afford it for Grace (or Noah... to be all equal opportunity about it) should either of them them have interest in it. Though if they wanted the 1974 doll, I'd be all wigged because that seems to young to be history!
I like American Girls in theory, but they're kind of like the Bugaboo strollers of the doll world to me -- yes, the quality is high enough to justify the price, but on the other hand there has to be a better way to spend that much money. I wouldn't object to getting either as a gift, but I can't ever see buying one myself.
Tom, I'd classify no-broken-picture-tube as a mitigated disaster -- it could have been a lot worse, including bleeding, et cetera.
Theo's got a point, Tom. Still, ugh!
Having a Tasty Kake for breakfast isn't a really bad thing, is it? Especially when you wake up feeling extra-special gronky...?
I had a slice of pizza, so I say go for it.

How did you know that I am looking at Bugaboo strollers right now?
I'd love Pizza for breakfast. I think I'll I have chili over spaghetti instead. Or a leftover pork sandwich.
