The most blatant White Collar one I remember is when Elizabeth had to demonstrate how the car could parallel-park itself.

Yeah, there's that one. Lots of lingering shots of the 'SHO' badge. Lots of shots of the center console when placing/getting calls. Using the seat massagers. Etc.. It doesn't really bother me that much, but it's kinda funny.

Dirty Jobs had a Ford truck, and Mike Rowe would occasionally pause to look at the truck and say things like "that's a tough truck, isn't it." At the end of one episode he said "We haven't done our product placement shot yet, so here I am in the parking lot, next to the Ford truck, admiring the sunset."

I've been watching White Collar too. Mostly because I can't recall much of the final two episodes and I am pretty sure I didn't see the season finale. Luckily, ION is showing it pretty much constantly.

The good news is that I don't think I have a cold. That means the sudden pounding headache and the non-stop sneezing don't have an obvious cause, so the leading contender is that I was allergic to something at the zoo. I hope it was the cheetah. Or the giraffes.

Edit: I know someone will ask, but I did not try to outrun the cheetah.

Perhaps the cheetah stealthily infected you with allergans. (I say cheetah because it is a cat and so many people are allergic to cats. On the other hand, even if many peoople are allergic to giraffes how would we ever know?)

That may have been where you went wrong?

But also I vote grasses.

Cheetah raquetball!

I did not watch any of the oscars and instead spent wayyyyy too much money getting drunk on wine.

Msbelle, as always, is awesome! Thanks to her encouragement, I listed some too-big clothes on eBay and my auctions ended this morning, sold 8 of 11 items for total of almost $300. Most are already paid even! Now I have more I want to photograph and post.

In not as awesome news, I forgot to pick up my prescriptions last week, so I've been without a couple of the meds that keep my migraines at bay. I haven't gone into full migraine, but I have a headache that keeps threatening to tip over and my whole body is tense over the idea of a migraine after going months without one. Once work is over, I'm headed straight to the pharmacy. Ugh, annoyed with myself. My own fault completely.

I got to feed a giraffe, i.e. stand on a deck above their enclosure and hold out lettuce which they grabbed with their hilarious tongues. So even if it was the giraffes, it was worth it.

I also got to be about four feet from the cheetah on the other side of the fence, so I recommend the Dallas Zoo, despite the sneezing.

I'm allergic to llamas. At least, anecdata says I sneeze when I visit the llama stall at the fair. It's fun to say to new doctors.
