It's just that no one else could afford to run the final like a heat.
He *jogged out* in 9.93 in a freaking WORKOUT run. Ran for 50m, then jogged out.
I remember when 9.93 was an unbelievable time for an actual race.
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

Man, I knew that the way that printer was set up on my desk was stupid and now I know the full extent of the badness: in order to change the toner cartridge I have to pull it around so that I cannot see the printer menu on front of the machine. It's a giant lj 4500 and you put the toner cartridges in back and then press something on front to move the cartridge to the next one that need changing. So annoying.

Wordpress is easy to use, Burrell
Good to know, thanks beth, I'll check it out. I'm thinking about blogger just because it works with gmail and the uni has some new setup for students on gmail. It looks fairly straightforward, but I need to create a blog of my own first I suppose, make sure it's easy to post to.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'll get to it when I finish the seven other things on my plate, until then you can suck it.
As far as I can tell, everyone can suck it today. SUCK IT.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
As far as I can tell, everyone can suck it today. SUCK IT.
I vote this.
My head feels like someone is trying to drive a truck through it. I think my Excedrin is broken.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I'm thinking about blogger
Burrell, I've used blogger before and it worked well for me.
Happy first day of school, Emily!!

I have to be that person. Too many people here don't read their email unless prompted.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You at least give them a grace period, don't you? I sometimes get calls from this guy *before* the mail shows up in my inbox.

Did you guys see Bart Connors and Nadia Comenici on Oxygen yesterday? The segment with Bela Karolyi and Mary Carillo? They make a handsome couple and check out their cutie pie baby boy.
I think that there should have been a segment with Mary Lou and Nadia - Bela wouldn't have gotten a word in edgewise. They should both have had the gonging power and they would have used it.
