Giles ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I found that I only needed a passing knowledge of the Red Sox (and the AL East) for small talk purposes in the Boston area.
I find the same thing to be true WRT the Saints down here. But it's easier to avoid specific, just say who dat and Drew Brees and you're good.
I find that asking "...what sport is that?" whenever a team name is mentioned gets me out of most sports-related conversations.
When people ask me what football team I like, I say I'm a fair-weather fan and root for either the Bears or Packers, depending on how they're doing.
Sometimes these people give me a suspicious look.

Heh.
I just have to come in to say I got to wave at the President's motorcade as it passed my building on the way to a rally here in Madison.

Once "Nomaaaaaaah!" wasn't good enough anymore, I was out of luck. I mean, me and the Sox both, am I right?? (I have no idea if I am right.)
Pretty much anyone I spend time with shares some interests with me and also has some interests I don't share (and ditto the other way).
Pfft, you and your legendary equanimity.
Random question of the day--does anyone have any suggestions of good online places for buying jewelry, especially necklaces?
I decided the other day that I am bored with my necklaces, but most of the ones I am finding online are too expensive, or ugly, or boring, or whatever.
good online places for buying jewelry, especially necklaces?
I think that accounts for 60-70% of my necklaces, and I have necklaces like some people have earrings.
I used to do Overstock too, but not recently.
Pfft, you and your legendary equanimity.
But, you know, it probably wouldn't work out with someone who was obsessed with baseball, given how much of it there is. Like it wouldn't work out with someone who didn't like TV.
