Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Due to being unable to resist a good coupon, I bought some frozen potato products the other day. Tater tots themselves were apparently not on sale, but these slightly-differently-shaped but very similar thingies were.

May I just say? YUM.

Me thing the first: This morning, I went to a Vendor presentation, where they were giving away Ipod shuffles to the first 100 people, so I got one. Thn I got to leave halfway through the presentation since I was needed at work. SCORE

Me thing the second: Earlier today, my boss told me (verbatim) "I'm going to get myself off" She was talking about a routing list, but I am 12, and it didn't help that she then went into her office and shut her door.

Oh, some of you will appreciate this: Dr. 90210 is terrible dinnertime TV, but I couldn't resist an old one with Dr. Will!

Not yet! I'm waiting for the perfect jacket or skirt. I may make a "plain" black version of the ruffled skirt I always make and use the buttons on it.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Nielsen identified three distinct groups of DVR users based on how much they time-shift:

Heavy Shifters are primarily middle income women, ages 18-49, who record and later watch nearly 26 hours of television– or about half of their TV viewing – a week.

Oh, this is totally me. If I have to actually sit through a commercial break, I'm usually pulling something off of my dvr to watch for a few minutes before going back to the live tv show.
