It didn&#8217;t suck  anywhere near as much as I thought it would and I ended up liking a good bit of it. But, that will hardly surprise long time readers of the blog.<\/p>\n<p>I explained to Cason at work today that the only way the pants could work is unstable molecules and that they were probably a failed experement by Reed Richards but all I got was a blank stare. The kids today just accept their fiction to readily.<\/p>\n<p>I am watching that &#8220;Hit Me Baby One More Time&#8221; show right now where pop stars from the 80s come back to sing their hit from the day and then a cover of a popular song. If by any chance bubble gum poptress Tiffany is reading this, I&#8217;ll totally go out with you if you&#8217;re game. Call me. Really.<\/p>\n<p>I also watched &#8220;Dancing with the Stars&#8221; and &#8220;Beauty and the Geek&#8221;. They were just amusing enough for me to watch but not an ounce more. I truly hope we learn the beauties and geeks are totally faking it because if not, dear lord, these girls and boys are very sad.<\/p>\n<p>Some bad news. My cousin Mary Frances went to high school with and was on the same senior trip in Aruba as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/news\/nation\/2005-06-02-teen-aruba_x.htm\">the girl who disappeared last week<\/a>. Our school has kids there this week and I told Cason that she was strictly forbidden from going there next year when she graduates.<\/p>\n<p>Closer to home, Tera was in a car accident near Jocelyn&#8217;s house yesterday. As far as I know she is fine but totalled her car and did have a concussion yesterday. Her Dad came and took her back home so I haven&#8217;t really seen or talked (much) to her. We&#8217;re glad she&#8217;s OK.<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, it took me three days to get the Tivo at Jocelyn&#8217;s working (ReplayTV is sooo much better IMHO). Her friend gave it to her with all her information still on it and when I looked at the following screen I thought that I could not have picked better themes for an Anti-Jocelyn if I had been trying to:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.spynotebook.org\/chip\/archives\/pictures\/antijoc.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"antijoc.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.spynotebook.org\/chip\/archives\/pictures\/antijoc-thumb.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I have to finish authoring the DVD of my sister&#8217;s wedding and then go to bed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I went to see &#8220;The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants&#8221; last night with :Jocelyn: and a whole bunch of 17 year old girls.
