1. Happy birthday, mjryan!!!

Have a wonderful day, M. I hope your boys are good to you, because you deserve it.

2. Here's a credit card scam that's been verified on Snopes.com. BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!!

3. The latest issue of NATURE magazine reminds me that February 12, 2009, is the bicentennial birthday of both Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln.

Speaking of Lincoln and dates, today was the Gettysburg Address.

....I think.

Hmmm.....*goes off to look*

Yup, 145 years ago today. Wow. Thank you for that "today in history" moment :D

I've listened to Permanent about three times already and every time, I cry. Seriously, I don't think I ever WON'T cry when I hear that song.

NO WAI!!!! Go, DC!!!

It's funny - it took a while for me to warm up to Permanent. But when the lyrics finally sunk in, I was just a wreck. *sniffle*

Bar-ba-sol is my favorite today. ^_________^

Was that YOU who was driving around Austin with Bar-ba-sol cranked up on your car stereo? :) And that song is such an earworm. It was running through my head while I waited for my bus this afternoon.
