Travel IQ is 113. I rock at Europe and the Middle East but kept getting in trouble taking random stabs at islands I knew were somewhere in the Pacific. We won't talk about how far off I was on the Galapagos.

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.
Thanks, Cashmere, but I am not really feeling in need of hairpats. I'm more intrigued by how weird the guilt thing is. And that's not even it.

Isn't it just freakish?? It sort of pisses me off that I can rationally know I'm doing a good job and yet still be driven to distraction by what I'm NOT doing, or how I could be doing something better?

At least you're home with them. In my craxy mom-head, I am the devil himself cause I work, even though I know I am a better mom because I work.
OMG I just did the Canada Quiz, and bombed on the Ontario section.
I was at Pearl Harbor last week and was still way off. My excuse? the islands are very small and I'm not as young as I used to be...

Pat Robertson Not Down With Yoga
Wednesday's "700 Club" featured a question about the Christian view of yoga. A concerned viewer asked, "Does it really have its origins in evil?" Pat Robertson gave the verdict: Yes! According to Pat, stretching is fine, but by repeating common yoga mantras, you are actually praying to Hindu gods Vishnu and Krishna and you're not even aware of it!
But! The yoga postures themselves are body mantras. So even the "stretching" is a "prayer."
I'm not surprised by that, some woman has redone yoga and called it Praise Moves. [link]
