Giles ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
So, um. we have an interview to be on the show Hammer Heads!! [link] They would redo our front yard! And provide all the expertise and labor! And we love the show and think the folks on it are smart and charming!
On Monday they will come to our house to videotape us for the show (which would tape in March). How can I lose 40 lbs between now and Monday? And what do I WEAR?
Eeee! That would be so exciting!!
Very exciting, Scrappy!
Not as exciting as getting my hair cut by Nick Arrojo, but pretty damn exciting.
Wow, Vinson is lucky he wasn't born on a ship with a worse name. Vinson isn't so bad.

Purity Balls Feature Lessons On 'Appropriate' Dance Moves (PHOTOS)
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Jeiel Ballard and his girlfriend, both 16, are dressed up in their best attire, ready for a night of dancing and fun.
But there will be no close embraces or risque moves to test chaperones on the dance floor. The "purity ball" sponsored by their Seventh-day Adventist Church will feature a vow to abstain from sex until marriage and offer tips on "appropriate" touching between the sexes.
"It's tough, but when you have sex at an early age it can become addictive," Ballard said. "And when you get addicted ... it can lead you down the wrong path."
...
A dance instructor at the purity ball showed "how a woman should be touched, how a man should be touched" without being sexual, Polite said.
"It doesn't have to be any of the dirty bumping and grinding," said James Brothers, an instructor at Dance World of Nashville. "It's just a great way to express yourself and really enjoy it, while still being classy at the same time."
Stay classy, purity-ballers!
Ha. So they say.
That does seem unlikely.
Joan of Arc 'Relics' Confirmed to Be Fake
The so-called "relics of Joan of Arc," overseen by the Archbishop of Tours in Chinon, France, do not contain the charred remains of the Catholic saint.
Rather, the artifacts consist of a mummified cat leg bone and human rib, both dating to the 6th-3rd century B.C., according to a new study.
Oh well.
