Glen is wondering whether he should get that tattoo of the quotation from The Lord Of The Rings. You know, the one about "the road goes ever, ever on?"
Memorization is somewhat less painful, I've heard. ;)

Just entered a check in Quicken for 1/10/09 instead of 1/10/10, and it looked like I'd been overdrawn for many months. Elevated heart rate is a good thing for short periods, right?

"Reviewing books and holding public figures accountable is at the core of good journalism, but the treatment Palin's book received appears to be something new for the AP. The organization did not review for accuracy recent books by the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, then-Sen. Joe Biden, either book by Barack Obama released before he was president or autobiographies by Bill or Hillary Clinton. The AP did more traditional news stories on those books. The attraction to Palin doesn't appear to be partisan, since AP didn't fact-check recent political tomes by Republicans Rudy Giuliani or Newt Gingrich."

Oh geez. And if they only had ONE person reviewing the book, they'd still complain.

I would blame it on teachers - I dont know about you but in our school writing "the royal mail delivered the mail" would have gotten you a big "REPETITION!!!" note in the margin and a lower grade...
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
@Joelle - That was my thought, too. 'Mail' and 'Post' are synonyms, so it parses poorly to use either word twice in a sentence, especially when one noun use would be proper and the other common.
