Shit. I don't get ESPN. ::grumbles::
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Art Crawl!!!
Didn't they use to show the finals on ABC? I wonder why that changed.
Clearly ESPN needs to farm b.org for their Spelling Bee commentators
Dana - I just watched all of season 1 of Tiny Luxury - DIY network. Where most of the people and the tiny houses they get actually make sense. It's all around a specific tiny house building company in Oregon - so the one I wondered the most about was a couple who were planning on living in Hawaii. They spent some of the most money to build the house of all the episodes I watched and yet they still have to get it to Hawaii. Maybe the cost of moving building supplies to Hawaii equalizes the cost of transporting a tiny house to Hawaii?

If you see a 5th grade girl named Sheridan in the spelling bee, she is Dillo's classmate.

There's probably all sorts of tariffs and such on building supplies, but they can probably classify the house as a travel trailer.

Also, the question of how easy it would be to find someone with expertise at building tiny houses in Hawaii.

Well, I suppose everybody knew it would happen, but we're out of the Paris accords officially.

Here's Dillo's classmate! She made it through the first 3 rounds, but did not make the finals. [link]

They used to have the spelling bee across the street from my office (years ago). There were always protesters - people who objected to standardized spelling.

Go classmate of Dillo! They are just amazing.
Trump just continues to make me weep for our world. The level of my outrage and disgust is off the charts. DH was concerned and decided I needed to go out to a movie. I looked at the Wonder Woman options, but too full theaters and not the greatest seat options. So I decided on Snatched. Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer getting kidnapped in Ecuador and hilarity ensuing. I don't even care about the crappy reviews. I will first assure I am tipsy enough that I will laugh at the most obvious jokes.
