Friday randomness
Dec. 8th, 2006 08:53 am1. It's fucking cold outside.
1.5 It's actually colder (for now) in Atlanta, so Elayna knows she'd be suffering either way (probably worse there, as she'd have to wait for the bus), but she still made her desire for a ski mask known this morning on the way to school.
2. Over in KOL, I can now verify that there's no trophy for building all of the assorted Crimbo items. I even built and extra Pet Rock, just in case.
OTOH, the items from the Crimborg rock.
3. In sports, I'd really like the Mets to do something other than trade away Bannister. OTOH, The Sox overpaid for Lugo, and given that deal the Royals gave to Gil Meche, Barry ZIto will probably cost about $65 million a season (he's certainly at least six times as good as Meche). I'd also like to know how the fuck Schuerholz pulled off the Ramirez-for-Soriano deal (which is almost more lopsided than last year's Andy Marte/Edgar Renteria deal).
4. Rebecca Romijn will on Ugly Betty! Yay!
5. There was a bomb threat at the town's high school yesterday. Not a happy event (although it turned out, not surprisingly, to be a prank. A really stupid prank). The high school isn't that close to the middle school, but it's close enough (and close enough to our house) that it's just not something one wants to hear about.
