Dick Cheney shoots his hunting buddy…there’s not much more to say other than…What-ever. He may want to re-think his positions on campaign finance after this. Possibly gun control, too. 
Does anyone understand the new figure skating scoring system? I’m still trying to understand how our US pair can hit a throw triple axel for the first time in any competition by any pair and end up in sixth…particularly when both Chinese pairs went off time in their spins. The Russians were awesome — they made sense. Others didn’t. If anyone understands the new scoring system, please leave a comment and explain it to me.
I suppose it would be bad form to say that it was 85 here today when everyone in the east is freezing and snowed in? Weird, bizarre weather. Santa Ana winds kicked up here today, blowing dry desert winds through. They always make me restless and apprehensive for some reason. Nothing reassuring about those winds at all.
Northern Voice 2006 sounds like it was awesome. I downloaded the recording of Nancy White’s presentation — (podcast and notes).
Swamphag (geez, that’s such a strange name for you!) blogged about it.
My daughter has school tomorrow and Sticks doesn’t. Sticks will be celebrating his 3.8 GPA (hot off the press) and exhausting schedule with a sleep-in lazy day. Kudos to Sticks for conquering the AP Chem and Honors Algebra classes with A’s in both.
Dancergirl is racing this weekend to get all the homework done and ready to turn in tomorrow. She’s still jetlagged from the trip and 8-hour time difference, but she got some awesome video, photos, and updated her blog . Interesting insight into her take on the competition — seems she knew intuitively before results came out that they hadn’t hit their stride.
I know, this is a bunch of random rambles, but it seems like another ‘tidbit night’ — nothing substantial but a few things interesting. Here’s to a wonderfully productive, peaceful week.
