don't wait for pain. it needs to be fixed.

Sounds logical.

OMG, I've never actually watched any significant portion, but I did spend weeks narrating my every move in song. Mostly in my head.

Oh yeah, we were definitely doing this last night. "He's waving his hand! He says, 'Goodbye!' He's moving to the door! He's opening the door! He has to unlock the door! Aw, shit! He opens the door! He's walking out the door!"

In a story about the flight delays this morning, CNN must have been desperate to pad their word count.

Carmen McDonald, a passenger in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, was among those delayed at one point Thursday.

McDonald said she thought her Spirit Airlines flight would leave on time -- around 7 a.m. ET. But the 39-year-old model sat for an hour and 15 minutes amid the noise of loud kids before the plane was ready to leave a logjammed runway and take off to Boston, Massachusetts.

"I'm frustrated," she said, distracted by using Twitter and calling on her cell phone as her plane sat planted on the runway. "I have somewhere to be."

My god, her flight was an hour late, and she only had her cell phone to distract her? Woes!

But she's a model! And 39! Surely that's noteworthy. Now we have to go find her on Twitter.

I'm not sure why an hour delay is newsworthy no matter what she does during it. Or maybe I fly Air Jamaica too often.

Of course I'm flying today. I'm always flying. Hopefully by this evening it'll be fixed?

I'm not sure why an hour delay is newsworthy no matter what she does during it.

But there were children in the airport, and she had somewhere to be. Unlike every other single person, who was flying for the fun of it.

The system is already back up, meara, so hopefully the worst of it will be sorted out by this evening.

My god, her flight was an hour late, and she only had her cell phone to distract her? Woes!

STUCK IN AN AIRPORT WITH ONLY THE INTERWEBS TO DISTRACT HER FOR A FULL HOUR!!! OH, THE HUMANITY!!!

Does this qualify as "not a good idea"?

d'Armond Speers: Dad Spoke Only Klingon To Son For Three Years

d'Armond Speers, a Minnesota man, spoke only Klingon to his son for the first three years of his child's life, the Minnesota Daily reports.

Speers says that he spent the first few years of his son's life speaking to him in the invented language of the alien race featured in the series "Star Trek" in order to better understand how children learn languages. Meanwhile, Speers' wife continued to address the child in English.

He told the Minnesota Daily,

I was interested in the question of whether my son, going through his first language acquisition process, would acquire it like any human language. [...] He was definitely starting to learn it.

Speers reports he "still gets nostalgic when he recalls singing the Klingon lullaby 'May the Empire Endure'" with his son.

...

Eventually, Speers gave up on Klingon communication, saying that his son "stopped listening to me when I spoke in Klingon" and "it was clear that he didn't enjoy it, and I didn't want to make it into a problem."

His son, now in high school, doesn't speak a word of Klingon, according to the Minnesota Daily.

Maybe he stopped listening to him because the vocabulary in Klingon made it too hard to say anything interesting to a two year old.
