Vick sentenced to 23 months for dogfighting

This is for the federal charges. He may yet get time on a state beef.

Art Crawl!!!

I don't even know how icy it is out there. The busy street in front of my building seems fine. We didn't get new precip that I am aware of - actually our big storm is supposed to come in tonight.

I think that if there hadn't been the threat we wouldn't have been closed today.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

He was engaged in illegal cowfighting?

(Sorry)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Have dropped the DH off at the airport for his trip to Detroit. He gets to stay at the Ritz, hobnob with the other automotive journalists, eat a fancy dinner with Ford execs, and visit the crash test labs. Sometimes, the life of a writer is way cool.

Me, I'm at work in my freezing office.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Have dropped the DH off at the airport for his trip to Detroit.

How long is he in Detroit for? I'll wave to the East!

Two days. Wave away!

We went to a neighborhood christmas party yesterday, and met a lot of neighbors. We also found out we live one block from Walter Koenig. I have a Star Trek neighbor!

Ooh - that'd be fun. Maybe he could "help" the crash test folk. Like, shouldn't the crash tests be as realistic as possible? Maybe the cars should have bags of groceries in them. With things like long fluorescent light bulbs, bags of flour, big jars of pickled beets....

eta: And people often go shopping for large amounts of vinegar and baking soda, right?

The best crash tests are the Saab moose crash tests.

Well Leif went off to school this morning. It was a bit hard watching him take off in the bus. He's such a small little guy and he's skipping a grade so it makes him seem even smaller.

Why do I picture Boris Badenov behind these tests?
