O.M.G. On Ugly Betty just now, they showed something printed that said "Fashion get's real." GET-APOSTROPHE-S.

Ann, that's a ferret.
My name is not in the top 100. But it's been going out of fashion for the last 100 years. Which means it may be due for a comeback soon.
And a boardfull of Buffy fans didn't notice that boys' names "Parker" and "Riley" were right next to each other (at 75 and 76)?

From Gadget Girl's link:
I remember editors and editors in chief lamenting that a married Spider-Man was not where we want to be," Quesada says. "A married Peter Parker makes for a less interesting soap opera than a single Peter Parker going about his nerdy kind of life."
Right, because pop culture just does not have enough nerdy unmarried guys who can't get laid. Adding one of those is an entirely fresh approach...

I have to pack a bag. Water, books for Miss P, cash, ipod in case Miss P wants, camera, cell, something to read if I get dissed by the kiddo. Paper and pen (to note the details to send out the email announcement.)

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I was thinking along those same lines.

I'm loving Project Runway. The Hershey one.

Since we've been talking taxes, and it's that time of year:
Here's one reason to use an online service to store financial data: no buggy updates to deal with.* Intuit's December update for 2006 and 2007 versions of QuickBooks Pro on the Mac platform wiped the user's Desktop folder and anything stored there. The company released a patch, but it didn't work if you launched QuickBooks while connected to a wireless hotspot, oops. The latest patch, so far as we can tell, simply disables any further updates to the application—on January 3rd the company "began automatically feeding a patch to Mac QuickBooks users that permanently switches off the program's upgrade mechanism to prevent a repetition of a data disaster." In the meantime, since they can't offer a way to fix the deleted Desktop folders, they're offering rebates to users who buy a copy of the data recovery program Data Rescue II.
Eep.

Project Runway is one of my guilty pleasures. I stayed up last night to watch the latest episode.
The Hershey episode was great, I totally agree.

Well, they finally showed up with the damn tv, at 8:30. The guy wouldn't take away the old one ("Too heavy" and he didn't have a dolly/cart), and only after I harangued him some, he helped me put the thing together, because I had misunderstood Amazon's definition of "white glove delivery" to mean that they'd hook up everything for me, when it actually meant that they'd unpack it and take away the box if I wanted them to (which it turns out I didn't, at least not yet, because if the box is gone and there's a problem with the TV, I can't return it).

Both nephews made the top 100. But they are D and T. I may have had opinions on the names before, but those boys are now perfectly named.
Noah & Grace are just so classic. And, well, they are Noah & Grace. It's funny, once they are, they can't be anything but. (and I miss 'em.)
Batteries. Must pack batteries for the camera. I'm not a picture-taker, and wouldn't dream of intruding, but I will take a family picture, once the newest arrives, for 'em. God, I can't believe I've been offered this.
