I just replied to my former coworker telling her I would be interested in the blind date.
eep.
Mal: Hell, this job I would pull for free. Zoe: Can I have your share? Mal: No. Zoe: If you die, can I have your share? Mal: Yes.

Given the story recounted above, I am a firm believer in blind dates.

Just make sure that former co-worker LIKES her sister....

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I have no idea, but GONE WITH THE WIND? How many people have actually READ the book, and not just seen the movie.
One summer in college, my goal was to not read any books that were shorter than 300 pages. Therefore, I read GwtW.
Let me just say: great movie, sucksuckSUCKASS book. Horribly racist as well as poorly written.
eggs increase risk of death
Urk. I read that post as The Boy was cracking eggs to make dinner (huevos Tim-os; his version of huevos rancheros). Oh well.
Given the story recounted above, I am a firm believer in blind dates.
Tom, you may end up marrying megan's dad. IJS.

OK, but that egg study doesn't control for anything--at the end of the article it's like "Men who ate more eggs were also, older, fatter, drank more, smoked more, and were less likely to exercise". So, SHOCKER that they died more, right? Maybe if you're in shape and exercising and not smoking, you can eat all the eggs you want!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Go, Tom! I wish someone would set me up on a blind date.

If Tom brings my father back from the dead just to go on a date, I think we can safely claim it to be both the most pathetic and most awesome blind date ever.

Like the NY Times story the other day about the tough toll of blogging, citing as evidence a 60 year old man dying of a heart attack.
