Did either annoying commentator seem to have the least clue about the significance of Glastonbury Tor? All I heard was Matt Lauer reading the dictionary definition of "tor."
Harrow: You didn't have to wound that man. Mal: Yeah, I know, it was just funny.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ha, I love that closeup one. She's actually totally gorgeous, really. I want her skin when I'm her age.

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

Nope.
Jeremy Renner and Betty White are on Leno tonight. That should be fun. I never watch Leno, but I'll tape it for them.

Just found out Charlottesville is getting a Trader Joe's and an IMAX theater! Yes, if I read a newspaper or watched news I'd have known it sooner.

It seems to me that "according to legend, Glastonbury Tor is the island of Avalon, the last resting place of King Arthur" is a more interesting factoid than "a tor is a rock outcropping or hill."

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I think my cable, which is supposed to cut out tomorrow, just stopped dead in the middle of the Opening Ceremony.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
The Queen's oh so enthusiastic pronouncement to let the games begin cracked me up.
The cauldron is gorgeous!

Has good video of that hit anywhere online yet? My search isn't turning any up, but my Google-fu isn't as good as some of you folks.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Bon, I asked my orthro about a letter for flying. He said they used to issue cards for people, like with hip replacements, but the TSA ignores them now.
So get a letter from your ortho if the flight's post surgery and you have a half cast, a wrap and dressings that can't be removed yet, but you will have to be wanded and body-searched, I'm afraid.

I'm getting a plate and screws in my arm Monday. What I didn't realize was that it would be permanent!
Non-permanent pins and screws and things stick out of the body. It's very awkward during the healing process.
Someone nearby just started band practice (or sound check). Drum kit and electric guitar starting at 1:30am? That's bound to make some people cranky.
