I think it is a magical, magical land that we live in to give us such ambrosia.

Now I'm trying to figure out if Aims means the bacon mayonnaise or Vegas.

To be fair, most of what makes Vegas Vegas was kind of "eh" for me. I don't play cards much, the slots did nothing for me, and I'm not all that interested in shows. But being able to go from pool to room to restaurant to nightclub without ever having to leave the hotel network? I kinda liked that.

Plus being upgraded to the bridal suite, or whatever it was we had. That rocked.

I love Buffista Vegas!

No I'm hearing "Buffista Las Vegas!" in my head to the tune of "Viva Las Vegas!"

And now, so are all of you...

Now I'm trying to figure out if Aims means the bacon mayonnaise or Vegas.

Put the bacon mayonnaise IN Vegas, and I will live there.

Baconaise, from the people who brought us Bacon Salt.

I haven't checked out the Kindle, but my first thought was, "Hey that is pretty cool...". Then I heard the price and my thought ended with "...for somebody else."

My housemate loves his Kindle and can't wait to get his Kindle 2 (but he didn't have to pay for either). I love the idea of reading newspapers without the newspaper, but I couldn't standing reading on that thing. Plus, I get books from the library--at $10 a pop the cost would add up quickly.

There's a lot of Project Gutenberg books available free formatted for Kindle. So it doesn't all cost.

I exchanged emails with the guy from the bar Juliana and I went to

Whoo, that was a fun night.

Vegas, for me, is all about letting my id out to play. Which basically means going from buffet to pool to bar - rinse, lather, repeat. Sometimes it involves teaching Emily how to accept drinks from conventioneers, sometimes it's waltzing with meara in the middle of the Golden Nugget, sometimes it requires hitting the Double Down with lisah's bandmate until 6 in the morning.

I mean, my motto is almost always "It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time." In Vegas, my motto is "It Seemed Like A GREAT Idea At The Time, But Hold My Beer, Because I Want To Try Something."

Don't remind me

Well I think that it's just, and science is more and more documenting this, is that there are real "chinks" in the armor of evolution being the only way we came about. The idea of there being a, you know, a little mud hole and two mosquitoes get together and the next thing you know you have a human being... is completely at odds with, you know, one of the laws of thermodynamics which is the law of, of ... in essence, destruction.

-Governor Mark Sanford of Carolina

I'm getting really tired of the "evolution violates the laws of thermodynamics" argument.....

I'm still being attacked by a snot monster, from inside the redoubt of my sinuses, but at least my Gmail is back.

I watched TDS this morning, before I went back to bed, and Bezos held his own with Stewart, even if there's an obvious problem with a $349 device that sells intangible books at $10 a shot.
