It's a slideshow - I've linked so my fave shows.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ooh, that's a fantastic shot.

Thunderdome! It's on like Donkey Kong!
I should ask all y'all Vegas-going buffista for advice on what to do there if all you have is 1 day and 2 kids in tow. We are driving to Utah for a wedding and need to break down the drive into 2 days.
The MGM Grand has the lions on display. That's a good way to kill a half hour.
I was reading some stuff on NPR and I saw a piece about the mayor of Philly. Did Philly folks really elect a mayor with the last name of Nutter?
one of my good friends has the last name Nutter. We tell him it's well deserved.
Let's not forget David Nutter, pilot director extraordinaire.
David Nutter
Thank you, P-C, I was just limbering up the fingers to mention him.
The MGM Grand has the lions on display. That's a good way to kill a half hour.
Or even more, if you get there when they're feeding the lions and the keepers play tug of war with the meat. I think all the observers were waiting for the keeper to get munched. There's a clear walkthrough, and lions like to lay on top of it and stare down at the monkey people.
The Fountains at the Bellagio are pretty, and the shops at Caesar's can occupy a whole lot of time, especially if you stop and watch the "sky" change color.
Where in Utah is your wedding? If you're coming through Provo--all of Utah County, for that matter--on I-15, *be warned* that there is major, major construction that will throw all time estimates off.
My movie morning matinee plans got scuttled by my mystery stomach pains that lay me out harder than most of my headaches. Ugh. The next step with those is to get my insides scanned. I need to get on that, to see if my organs are behaving. Because that pain ain't kidding around. I think it's mostly done now.
sarameg & lisah are you going to the under the bridge market tomorrow?
I'm probably going to be getting my uncle on the road tomorrow, so probably not, alas.
Had my cousin & her family over after a nice brunch at Clementine. An eight year old, a three year old and a six month old. Loki's recovering, didn't faze MK in the least (although I don't think he understood what the baby was!) and Devi....she shocked me. She stayed the whole time in the livingroom, in her cube, ignoring it all. She didn't even try to hide when they came roaring over to peer at her. SHOCKING.
Think I might go swimming soon.
eta: ita, that sounds alarming! And really really painful.
