Wow, what a great coincidence that Mark and Russ would both make an appearance just before Jeff's birthday. Excellent!

Happy, happy birthday, Jeff (The occasion absolutely called for being obnoxious with the emoticons)...

Hello, Russ and Mark! And Happy Chanukah, too... Say hello to Marcy for jod* and me.

I vote for Sweet Red Meat or Steak as Meat's new red state-induced nickname.

Work is heavily cracking down on non-work-related-surfing (no longer can stop by on breaks--bummer), so sorry for being so absent of late.

And to paraphrase one of my favorite reactions to that election (thank you, John Stewart): If you want to go to a library or have gay "relations," do it tonight because your time is running short.

And this with a former Library Media Specialist as the First Lady... We're doomed.

Thanks, Patt****.

BTW, I have tomorrow off from work. I just may go Christmas shopping for you. I hear that Best Buy is having a big sale on Clint Howard movies!

Jeff.

Noooooooo! I mean, Clint Howard, ooo, he's my favorite (up there with Cusack, Buscemi, et al)!
