My grandmother went to call her oo-DEHN like in French, but then was correcting herself.
That's how the ESPN crew are saying it, but I have a suspicion they're all saying Safina (like SaFEENa) wrong (I thought she actually corrected people that it was SAFina, more like her brother's name). So who knows.
I'm glad Safina's out, because I don't think she should be #1 either, although she will hold onto her ranking anyway. One of the commentators said that #1 should be who you're most afraid to play, and that puts Serena quite squarely there, and probably the Williams sisters there for doubles, even if they don't make it to the finals.
I'm saying it the French way. Like boudin.
I have NBC on for Obama's address to Congress, and watching the Cabinet come in the chamber, it struck me: I wonder if, these days, Hillary Clinton is glad she lost the primary?
Also, in that red suit, she is spectacular.
I think Hilary Clinton is glad that someone else in the party is taking a beating on health care.
I'm watching CBS and Katie Couric and Bob Schieffer just had a completely inane conversation about how Obama should lay off on the kissing during flu season.
John Kerry still looks like an Ent.

Damn, these Congresspeople are standing up and sitting down like they're in church.
Eleven Ten more minutes.
Not that I am counting or anything.

OMG Joe Biden, at least pretend like you're paying attention. Nothing on your knee could possibly be that interesting.
