As Napoleon would say: Lucky!” I mean “GOSH!”
I’m sure you’re all very capable of looking up stories on CNN, but I like to post them anyway so deal with it

Let me clear my throat

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

We’ve all been around them, you know them well, they’re right up there with the constant nose sniffers, the “you know” and “like”-ers…..they’re the people who refuse to clear their throat before speaking. It’s impossible to pay attention to what they’re saying - you’re too focused on the gargly sounds, the mucous and other […]

Except for my first 5 years where I was still learning to talk, walk, feed myself, go in the big-girl’s potty (yes, most of those happened before the age of 5 ), I’ve been playing the violin….I guess that means I’ve been playing for 18 years. I’m no stellar concert-mistress but I can […]

I know, the name is kind of cheesey, when I first heard it I thought “infomercial”, but the Body for Life routine has been great for Chris and me. I’m happy to say that in the past couple months I have lost 13 pounds and I’d like to go for another 10. […]

“Angiosperms first became abundant”
*email*
“Angiosperms first became abundant during the Cretaceous period”
*Ebert says: ‘The Notebook” cuts between the same couple at two seasons in their lives. We see them in the urgency of young romance, and then we see them as old people, she disappearing into the shadows of Alzheimer’s, he steadfast in his love.*
“Angiosperms first […]

George Carlin

Thursday, April 21st, 2005

While I’m on the comedian kick, this has always been one of my favorite bits…I think Andi was the first to introduce it to me. George Carlin’s theory of life, read on:
“The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your […]
