Why SYTYCD is Amazing!

Last nights episode of So You Think You Can Dance, episode 99, once again gave us something we will talk about for a long time.Get the tissues out and prepare for feeling.Choreographed by Tyce Diorio.Danced by Melissa and Ade.Music by Maxwell, "This Woman's Work".It is so amazing that we get to witness such magic right in our own living rooms.

I am officially a Twit...

...terer.Been fighting it but have given in. Since I am mostly on the iPhone nowadays I figure this might be a good thing. I do admit it really was the Iran situation that convinced me that this Twitter thing could be a good thing.

Air Hockey, SYTYCD and Torture, O My!!

Air Hockey:We recently became iPhone users and so far it is pretty darn groove-a-delic! Beyond all the cool features, GPS has already saved me 4 times and I don't know how I can ever live without it ever again, I have acquired a portable air hockey table for a mere 99¢! As some of you know I looooooooooove air hockey and I have always wanted my own table. Now I have one I can carry anywhere and play anytime I so desire. This is something I did not expect and I am discovering more and more I can do with this awesome gadget!...
