oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
thanks for the snow pictures, ginger!
It took me a second to understand what you were talking about, megan. It sounds annoying -- if you read that much why would you join a 24 books in a year group with out doing what you are doing? 9 books by now, yes I've done it many times. ( until facebook - I read less books since I've been on face book) So if I joined a group like that I'd make it 24 non fiction or classics or even 48 children's books to make it a challenge for me.

Yeah, it was really for people who were finding it hard to make time for reading. And now the group is dominated by three (seemingly) retired people. And my poor friend who started the group is still stuck on his book about procrastination!
I actually don't read that much, but I thought that with this group it made sense for me to set my "every other one should be a classic" goal (which I am failing miserably at since I started with Don Quixote and keep getting distracted). I hope that at least they'll stop posting at 24.

It's also not about peace. Does no one listen to the words? I can't think of a Leonard Cohen song that would be appropriate for the Olympics.
Anthem's not totally inappropriate.
Unlike, say, Don't Go Home With Your Hard On.
Which is probably not appropriate for anything you could show on network TV.

JZ was appalled when I explained the skeleton to her, and promptly forbade Matilda and Emmett from doing luge or skeleton.

He married into a great Canadian family. His father in law was the father of universal health care.
Which makes Kiefer the Nephew of universal health care!

If only we could get Jack Bauer on the case, we'd have it by President's Day.

kd looked like she'd borrowed David Byrne's giant suit!
I kept thinking she was Kyle McLaughlin.
Canadians, sorry about your cauldron, eh.
Yuu guys are missing Wayne Gretzky being driven in the back of a pick-up to the site of the outdoor flame being followed by crowds of drunken, screaming people.
Awwwww, that kinda makes the whole thing ok.

Huh. I couldn't help but make the Buffy connections when they went from Donald Sutherland to Sarah McLachlan.
