Networks criticized for lack of Anna Nicole Smith coverage.
I think that goes hand-in-hand with CNN’s entertainment coverage Who is Prince Frederic von Anhalt? and (very important!) story about how New photos show Smith in bed with Bahamian immigration minister.
It’s that time of year again — International QuirkyaloneDay!
Your score was 113. Very quirkyalone:
Relatives may give you quizzical looks, and so may friends, but you know in your heart of hearts that you are following your inner voice. Though you may not be romancing a single person, you are romancing the world. Celebrate your freedom on National Quirkyalone Day, February 14th!
Yesterday was Kaffeestunde in the department, which meant that today there were leftover cookies in the copy room: heart and rose-shaped short-breadish-things with pink and rose sprinkles on top.
I had a couple.
No coffee again today until my trip to Fair Trade in the afternoon. They were packed, and with my glasses fogged it was hard to find the single available table, which happened to be right behind me when I was standing at the register. It was, however, deceiving, for the previous user of the table had left their empty coffee cup behind — a no-no! — and so until we examined the empty cup and determined that no one was returning to the table from the bathroom or such we weren’t certain whether the table was still “occupied.”
In any case, I got a table, a hot cup of coffee, and a glass of water to quench my thirst. I finished Jasper Fforde’s Something Rotten (guest-starring Hamlet, Prince of Denmark), then packed up, and caught a 4 direction home.
This evening I am finishing “I” — I’m on Iron Maiden (Piece of Mind) now, and had the joy of INXS earlier. I especially recommend the dance mix of the following:
Original Sin
You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love – yeah
You thought what a pity
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away
There was a time when I did not care
And there was a time when the facts did stare
There is a dream and it’s held by many
Well I’m sure you had to see
It’s open arms
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away
You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love – yeah
You thought what a pity
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
Then wake up to a brand new day
Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
And waked up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away
Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams are washed away
Dream on, play with fire
White boy, black girl
Dream on, in the name of love
Black boy, white girl
Dream on, white boy, black girl
Black boy, white girl
Dream on, the name of love – yeah
You thought what a pity
Original Sin
