Timelies all!
Am envious of shrift and Dana. (though DragonCon is waaay too big for my comfort level.)
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

I heard a rumor that there were 75,000 people there this year.

DH had a boss once who, if you drew a single state on a piece of paper could fill in the entire United States from that one state. I'll have to show him the Franken video. He'll be impressed.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
see Sen. Al Franken draw a map of the US freehand!
That's fun to watch, and impressive. I'd never be able to keep the proportions right.

Yeah, I'm not concerned for myself - or for Jilli, we're healthy. It's just the REACTION is startling. I have friends who have immediately gone to the hospital upon hearing about this.
Yeah, watching the ZOMG SWINE FLU! DEEEAAAATH! reaction through LJ/FB/Twitter has been kind of amusing. In a "you people need to calm down" sort of way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
IcompletelyON, see Sen. Al Franken draw a map of the US freehand! (Love the music and speeded-up tempo.)
I remember him doing it on SNL during some election -- could it be 88? Impressive!

I have made the new A/V receiver my bitch. We have audio and video. Now if I can get the tuner to work, we'll be golden.
Take that, Geek Squad!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm not sure if it says more about me or the parties I attend that this sounds like a pretty neat party trick.

Man, my optometrist is cute.
I hadn't realized that Oprah was filming on the street between the Wrigley Building and Tribune Tower. I had to go in the back and beg security to let me through, and I passed by some green rooms on my way to Pearle Vision.
