I like your operations, -t, and would like to subscribe to your medical newsletter.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, pretty, Beverly! I bought some anti-bug flowers to go in one of my pots, so we'll see how that goes.

Both attempts highly successful! Today is all coming up -t so far.

Good luck with the teeny monster slaying, Bev. I'm picturing Fear, Itself.

I was amused that the very title you mentioned was up next, Jesse. Sadly, my DVR can't tell me if I've seen it before. I think I have.

Honestly, I'm sure it's for sweeps. How many Hitler topics can we get out of this science show??

Does sweeps matter for PBS? I guess everyone wants ratings.

-t, you inspired me, and I ran nearly 6 miles today. My fastest average pace in a while, too--it didn't hurt that all the hills were in the first 2/3 of the run, and the last 2 miles was all flat with a gradual downhill.

The dog, however, is very tired. I am going to have to dial back on her running, I think. She is, after all, 9.

I'm all dressed to go running. Anyyyyyyy minute now I'm going to leave the house and go run. Any minute. Real soon. Yup. Once I decide where to go. Yeah, totally cool...uh....

Oh yeah, I guess it doesn't! I should know these things. I do know that they put Downton and Sherlock both together in January, because that's when they get the best ratings.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Kate, I'm thisclose to volunteering as webmaster for the chorus I sang with briefly, and I don't know anything about websites! But I do know that theirs is terrible.
