Observation 1

I just got back from Target. In the DVD section of the store was a display promoting "Newlyweds," the show with Nick Lachey (sp?) and Jessica Simpson. As you may or may not know, Nick and Jessica have recently (as in today) divorced. The cover of the dvd boxes were hilarious. Nick and Jessica look all happy on the cover of the first season dvd set. They look still happy on the second season set as well. But on the final season dvd set, they both looked really awkward in the picture. Nick is barely smiling and Jessica looks like she hadn't been getting much sleep. You may think I'm crazy for writing this, but check it out next time you're in Target.

Observation 2

Austin is laid out as if it was created by someone playing "Sim City." Let's put a Capitol building here. Let's put a river right through the middle of the city. Umm...Let's put a school right next to the Capitol building. How about a trendy district on the outskirsts of town. We can sandwich the downtown buildings between the giant park and the large University. If Austin was a Sim City creation, I'd be one of the "civilians" getting upset about the shitty traffic here.

Cats always try to find a way to get outside. Even if you've had an indoor cat for 50 years, everytime you open the door the cat is thinking about running out. As Luke observed last week, cats have this amazing ability to see through human flesh when that human flesh is standing in the doorway. It's X-Ray vision.
