Turn down your damn music!
It's that time of year again...
The elementary school kids are playing Xmas carols in the Atrium. Badly. My ears are bleeding.
Note to self: Bring iPod. Turn up volume. -

question about The Amazing Race (no spoilers)
I've gotten sucked into The Amazing Race, if only because it's a reality show I not only would be willing to do, but would totally rock at. I missed most of the season, but caught the last few weeks, which leads me to this question ( Read more... ) -
T-giving Parade pics
Pictures from the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade 2008! I again had an All Access pass. The pictures start with the balloon inflation the night before.
I hope I did this right. They're on Flickr but only visible to "Friends and Family"; the above link is supposed to be a "guest pass" thing.
Let me know if you can't see them. -
Vote today!
I'm heading out to vote in a few minutes before going to the dentist (and then taking the dog to the vet later this afternoon).
US Senate: Jim MartinHe actually ran positive ads telling voters what he's about and what he's going to do. Imagine that! Every one of Saxby's ads has been Fear! and Hate! -- not one has told us what he's accomplished in ( Read more... ) -
home and stuff
Got home a bit late last night thanks to heavy fog at Hartsfield. Now I'm going thru nearly 1000 pictures of the Macy's Parade. Like last year, I shot the whole thing with a wide angle lens, but I think I spent too much time hanging around Herald Square, so this year I stayed up at Columbus Circle for an hour before spending most of the rest of the ( Read more... ) -
Manhattan
Dad & I went into Manhattan today. We spent the middle of the day on the newly reopened Intrepid, which was cool (and cold) but not worth the $20 admission price (plus $25 for parking). Unless we missed an entire deck of stuff, which is possible ( Read more... ) -
Hey - I accomplished stuff!
Sort of. I've made appointments for the following: dentist, eye doctor, vet. All for next week over two days. Even though the dentist and eye doctor are across the street, the dentist doesn't see patients on Wednesdays and the optometrist doesn't see patients on Tuesdays. Well, how about Thursday? Sure! Except I had already set the dentist and vet ( Read more... ) -
Finally going after Saxby!
Finally finally finally!
It's about damn time someone went after Saxby Chambliss on his ties to Imperial Sugar.
Why Martin/the DSCC hasn't been pounding him on this for the last six months is beyond my comprehension. Imperial Sugar's gross negligence killed over a dozen Georgians, and Saxby has taken their money, defended their officers, and gone ( Read more... ) -
Mom's coming
Mom's coming to visit on Wednesday (tomorrow), which means tonight is jam-packed with excitement: Laundry! Vacuuming! Cleaning the bathroom! James Bond's got nothing on me, bitches ( Read more... )
