I would love to have a month or two to do the western U.S. and Canada. I'd also love to do an epic train journey - especially trans-Siberian - someday.

I'm only hoping to lose 10-15 pounds (ok, 20-25 would be nice, but I don't worry about being stick thin anymore) so I"m hoping that upping my aerobic activity with a couch-to-5K program will do the trick.  I'm only on week 1 of a 9 week plan, but hopefully I stick with it.

Good luck!  I once had a really bad bruise on the back of my leg just below my knee.  I could not for the life of me figure out where I had gotten that until one afternoon my dog came barreling snout first into that exact spot.  That is the only time I ever solved the mystery of the unknown bruise!

The salespeople ARE nice at Nordstroms!  You would think they have a snobby attitude for being a pretty pricey retail store, but no.

Did you get a bra fitting?  I've always wondered if those are worth it.  Also, I have never spent more than $30 for a bra, but maybe I am missing out.

He was wearing a balaclava.

I was on a rafting trip recently and part of our group included a large contigent of high schoolers who kept yelling RUMSPRINGA!! and it was reaaaaally annoying.  And no, they were not Amish kids actually on Rumspringa.

But that rivalry was pretty much in George Bluth's head, wasn't it?  Did Stan turn conniving later on?

Did anyone else find Sally Sitwell's transformation in the season to be completely out of character?  I just couldn't remember her being a scheming, conniving person previously. 

Lots of great TV/film has come from mediocre books, so I wouldn't worry to much about that.  I'm excited this is such a good review.

I think its more disappointment in the "why do you all not love this think I love as much as I do" :)

Me too, so of course it is a little disappointing to have heard pretty much not one word about it on this site.

I thnk Walker is well-cast as Pollard, whereas Hemsworth really doesn't look much like Owen Chase, which is of course unbelievably litte concern to me :)

I used to date a guy that loved Harry Chapin, and this was often playing when we made out.  This, and Sniper. 

Speaking of boats, the casting for the In The Heart of the Sea movie continues.  We've got Chris Hemsworth, Brendan Gleeson, Cillian Murphy, Tom Holland, and Benjamin Walker, which is a pretty good cast, and I remain hopeful for Ron Howard's direction.

*clears throat*

And now I can't get the Kenny Rogers song out of my head.

Does he also want to prevent post-menopausal women and men with vasectomies from marrying?  He fights to deny only homosexual people marital rights - how is that not anti-gay?

For Our Consideration: Man of Steel is good and anyone who thinks otherwise should cede their right to due process.

I actually found it quite funny that he made a press release to EW.
