Early birds/night owls: I wish they had been more specific about *how* late and *how* early. For some people, staying up late means 10pm. For my niece, it means going to bed at 5am.
Simon: You are my beautiful sister. River: I threw up on your bed. Simon: Yep. Definitely my sister.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm wondering how the laws/practices differ
Regardless of the laws, I'm sure she had to waive her right to the privacy of these tests to compete in the first place.
It's still wrong that the results ended up in the press before she was notified, but I doubt it's illegal in any jurisdiction.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm pretty sure anyone in America who's potential/employer is getting the test first signed a waiver allowing it.
I have looked at my brother's FB account. He curses! In front of my parents!
It's their fault for being there!!!!
This is my FB policy. Youdonlikeit? Then githefuckout! Actually, that's not entirely true. Once I friended actual children I started putting Hagar the Horrible characters in my cuss words in statuses. I haven't changed any content though -- if you're going to let your kid go on facebook he may find out Autie Trudy has sex. That's your call, man.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Google Chrome won't load the Google Adsense login page. Hmm.
Rain is spoiling the US Open. They expect a 2-3 hour window "later". At which point they may play the rest of Gonzalez/Nadal at the same time as Clisters/Williams, making one quite dizzy.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The shot of Nadal playing foosball was pretty cute, though.

Shockingly, it loads for me.
My FaceBook status updates end up boring because I have to run them through the work-filter and the mom-filter.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just had a genuinely good burger and fries delivered, so that was exciting. Although I must be unamerican, because the 6 oz. burger was a little too big for me.

I didn't say it was often.
