Bush Declared 422 Major Disasters. Perhaps he'll declare himself to be the 423rd.
On a much happier note, Anne Shirley, later Anne Blythe but best known as Anne of Green Gables, one of my all-time heroines, celebrates her 100th birthday this year!
A meaner, grittier West Side Story will be making a come-back early next year.

Chris Mark and I have developed an odd habit over the years in which we email to each other the most disturbing, grossest, weirdest, or quirkiest news stories we can find. I usually win.

Or, you know, being within stabbing distance of anyone, ever. Way to go, Chris.
