"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I am actually looking forward to going back to work, my time off has sort of blown.

I'm can't quite go that far, but I do wonder why I can get more done during a productive two-day weekend than I have been able to with 12 days off.

Also, I'm so sorry to hear 2008 decided to give you one last swift kick on its way out the door, Nora.

Timelies, all. I haven't even really been able to get caught up on the board with my time off (only selected threads).

I've got a sexy Scottish geologist on my tv right now! Science Channel is showing three eps of Hot Rocks, hosted by Dr. Iain Stewart, who is smokin' hot and has a wonderful brogue. The fact that he's educating in an entertaining way is whipped cream on the hot chocolate.

Worst birthday ever. I'm glad it's over. 2009 already on notice.

That's too bad, shrift. Hey, maybe it's like rain on your wedding day: seems bad but is actually good luck.

Friend of mine sent me this story - which could be no more than rumor. Apparently, Obama is friends with the producers of the local PBS Show Check, Please. So about 7 years ago he went on the show but he was "too good" and they didn't air it. (I don't really understand what "too good" means in this context.) The restaurant he picked was Dixie Kitchen in Hyde Park.

It's a corollary of Parkinson's Law: Work expands to the amount of time you have to do it.
