Mom! The New York Times is taunting me with shiny new digital SLRs that I can't afford!

Sue, I'm not even going to click that link. I'm dying to get a digital SLR, but I'm trying to be fiscally responsible for the first time in my life, so for right now, I'm holding off.

Well, Joe probably plagerized it, then!

Also, in completely shallow observation: Chelsea turned out to be a gorgeous young woman.

Never underestimate the power of the straightening iron and some plastic surgery.

OK John Kerry is actually scoring points!
