My only baseball/election superstition is that the Red Sox breaking the Bambino's Curse during that eclipse resulted in it rebounding on the rest of the country.

I love that Palin quote.
Booyah!
Sarah shows her loyalty and proves McCain's stupidity once again. Let's see how the campaign shovels that one.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The first plane trip I can remember going on was to Disney World when I was almost 6. And actually most of what I remember is the food -- I got a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and a lollipop shaped like Mickey Mouse. And the stewardess took us up to the cockpit to meet the pilot and see the controls, which I thought was really neat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's 37 degrees here. I guess that means time for the winter coat, huh.

WOOT - Phillies! I'm happy to do a little bit of personal shopping, should someone want swag (and can cover s&h and cost - wish I could, but JavaChik's box will likely run about 100lbs). Profile addy.

Hell yeah, there won't be a strike in the Israeli higher education system! The academic year will start as usual! I'll be able, at last, after waiting for an extra year to get some higher education! Yaaaaaayyyyyyy!
(And, of course, I'll be having 30 hours per week in the first semester. Just shoot me now).

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

I scraped frost off my windshield this morning. Which led to dragging out my winter leather jacket. I love the seasonal clothes transition. When I checked my jacket's pockets I found $2. Yay!
