Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I don't know, the announcers say so little during the performance, and the music was so uninteresting, I'm not sure it made much of a difference.
I was trying to think if nostalgia has colored the coverage of the games in my youth, but then I realized there were 25% fewer medal events back then so that may have had something to do with it feeling more complete.
it was on all day long back in the day, wasn't it? That's what I am finding strange, I turn on NBC whenever i have some time thinking there will be some Olympics coverage, but there isn't.
Can you ID the music the last couple used for me, megan? It's just on the edge of my memory but I can't quite place it.
Happy Mardi Gras, y'all!
I really wish I was home right now.
Happy Mardi Gras!
I haven't been in my office since Wednesday. I am a little afraid of the paperwork that's been collecting, even before I get there.
I really have to get cracking on a couple of projects today. Things need to Get Done this week, and it's already Tuesday, and I'm leaving midday Thursday. Oops.

It's Albinoni's "Adagio in G Minor", one of those sad adagios that seems to be used in everything, you might know it from Gallipoli. I actually have Ascot Man to thank for knowing the music--he was a composer and film critic and made mix tapes of film scores for me, including the adagio and Out of Africa music used last night. (This made be why I hated it.)
It took me 40 minutes to get to work today. I live less than 2 miles away.
The city, in its infinite wisdom, decided to go ahead with road construction that completely closes down 39th, a main route from NE. When no side streets are plowed, and the alternate routes, a nightmare under the best circumstances, are down to one lane each way. CITY FAIL.
Ugh
DC's Toy Fair Showcase: Green Lantern, Jonah Hex, And True Blood, Oh My!
# 14 is my fave:
The manga-inspired Ame-Comi Heroines line boasts a Robin (available soon) and a Wonder Girl (background; April 2010)...
Huh. I didn't realize New Orleans king cake was more like a bread.
