Weather Channel is saying D.C. and Baltimore may get hit pretty good. It's been a boring winter weather-wise around here in the D.C./Balmer I-95 corridor. No snow yet to speak of and I've got a 7 year old boy and 10 year old girl and a 4 year old golden retriever that would LOVE to see a foot or so...

Way Cool and Congrats!! And great job having sharpies and something for him to sign handy. First time I got his autograph it was in pencil on a Margaritaville Cafe menu because that was all I could quickly find! :D

These are cool posters, but the seller misrepresents them at best. They are reprints of vintage poster designs. The seller has several names (dogstar6000, dogstar7000 among them). It's a very lucrative busines I'm sure but I'd take that *claim* they put on every eBay listing with a grain of salt. Th...

We've always named our dogs something that can be shortened to a single syllable. Ditto on the one-syllableness aspect. That's what you'll be using the most. Our last dog was a golden retriever named Corky (after 60's surfer Corky Carroll) which I always shortened to just "Cork". Our curr...

Re: Whis issue of Vanity Fair was Jimmy in?

Of course I could be wrong. :D :D :D Sorry Balcony Girls ... George Clooney he ain't! Take a second look at the cover shot for TTWWY! Very trim waist! He has definitely been working out and is looking quite buff! All in good fun. I hope I'm still surfing and in as good a shape when I'm looking at 6...

Re: Whis issue of Vanity Fair was Jimmy in?

I read he was featured in Vanity Fair recently but the only issue I can locate is November. He must have been in October, right? I am not a member / subscriber to VF so was unable to access past issues on line. Anyone have a link? I think it was that infamous and embarrassing cover that followed th...

My MVA Rant! What is up with this org?!!!

My fault. I let my registration renewal lapse, so I had to go down to the Maryland MVA. I had a lot of meetings today so I could only get away around lunchtime. Sure enough, it was very crowded. 12:00 noon Between noon and 1pm there were 3 windows open (out of 14 total). The other 11 windows were em...
