My house is a mess, I have several people coming over in 10 hours, and I NEED SLEEP.
That is all.

"Dear U.S., Iraq is buying uranium from Niger. Signed, Epstein's Mother"
Why is no one talking about this, which seems to me to be extremely important? Embarrassing, yes, but if we're going to war based on this intelligence, shouldn't we make sure it's, you know, real?

I just don't know about this Elizabeth Smart thing. While I'm glad she's home, make no mistake, I have my suspicions about the whole story. There are holes in this thing a mile wide, and no one seems to be mentioning them. Plus, this quote from an AP story on the case makes me even more skeptical:
Police questioned her aggressively about her identity, Officer Bill O'Neal said. He said she became agitated when officers asked her to remove her wig and sunglasses, and told them she recently had eye surgery.
"We took her aside ... she kind of just blurted out, `I know who you think I am. You guys think I'm that Elizabeth Smart girl who ran away,'" O'Neal said.
Ran away? Why would she say that? Also, if she was brainwashed, she seems to have snapped out of it faster than anyone in history. Look, I'm not saying this was necessarily all a hoax, but I just have some major misgivings about the whole thing. Plus there's just something about Elizabeth's father that gives me the wiggins.

Says You.
So, I get this e-mail newsletter from Pampers because I signed up for coupons before the little guy was born. Anyway, the most recent newsletter mentioned some study that found that baby's colic did not cause depression in mothers. To which I say, HA! Unless they mean that it goes beyond depression and causes insanity, then sure.

Apple Rules.
Can I just say how much I love iMovie? Because I do. I took almost 2 hours of home movie footage and with no experience or special third-party software, edited it down to just over 45 minutes of cuteness (it's all of my son, natch). Did I need a big-ass manual? No. Did I need to spend days trying to make the program work? No. Was it criminally easy? Yes! Tomorrow I'll burn it onto DVD with my Superdrive, and soon the far-off grandparents will see their little guy walking and (almost) talking in living color! Take that, Windows users!

Hideously offensive thing #473:
You know those ads for the 900# sex lines you see in the back of magazines? In the back of the latest Rolling Stone, they had one that read, and I swear to you this is a direct quote,
"Asian sluts luv bangee bangee"
I mean, yes, it's an ad for a phone sex line, but still. There's got to be a limit somewhere. I'm surprised they didn't spell "luv" with an "r." Perhaps that would have been too much, even for them.

Okay, Crest. I caved. I bought your Whitestrips. The free disposable camera notwithstanding, I better see whiter teeth in two weeks, or someone's gonna have to eat some sickly sweet peroxide gel, dammit.
