    I'm with you on the screwdrivers...

    what happened on 01.20.09 ? wedding?
  • Fecundity · 1 year ago
    Jan 20th, 2009 marks the start of a new American presidency.

    Haha, I was reading it Sep 20, 2001.

    I understand the Dolphins, but I don't get why you'd be thankful for the Steelers. It's still early in today's game, but it's not looking good for your guys. I'm rooting for you as well.

    @Lazy Man: Well, we beat the Steelers last week. The Cowboys were another matter entirely... argh.

    @Fecundity, Four Pillars: thanks and Happy Thanksgiving to you, too! Yeah, 01.20.09 is becoming a bit of a "meme" for bumper stickers and whatnot around my (rather liberal) area. I think almost everyone in the US, regardless of politics, is ready for a change.

    Steve: I've seen T-shirts up here as well, although they either spell the date out or write it as 20/01/07.

    Pretty much everyone outside the US is ready for a change too, I believe.

    Er, 20/01/09. Whatever.

    I have to admit that I don't like the organic green tea from Whole Foods. I think the tea is bitter...I'm a fan of the offerings at Trader Joe's...

    @Saving Diva: I haven't tried Trader Joe's, although we have one opening up near us soon. I'll give it a shot. Main thing is organic, because for a long time I was drinking non-organic tea simply because organic was so pricey. It's more the cost than the taste....
