All the things I haven't told you about recently....

Jane is funny: Sara, Jane and I went to the Panther opening night "party" at the Apple Store (because they offered us a 10% discount on anything we bought, ok?) They had a door prize, a set of dog tags with the apple logo on them. They were pretty cool and all, but I said to Sara and Jane, "I wonder why they chose dog tags? They don't really go with panthers." Jane said, "They are for their army of dorks."

Election Day Question: When Steven and I went to vote yesterday, an old man went into the voting booth to help his wife when he had finished voting. (In an attempt to emulate MA, there were about 12 ballot initiatives.) Steven was shocked, and thought you were never allowed to have anyone in the voting booth with you. I told him lots of little kids vote with their parents. But, is there some kind of age after which that is no longer acceptable, like little boys going into ladies' rooms with their mothers?

Astronomical Upate: There is a lunar eclipse Saturday, November 8th (THIS saturday) at 8 PM!

Radio Fame: This past weekend, 62.5% of the family took part in the fun that is Mary's radio show. Total air time winner was Daddy, who basically walked away from the show (and got Mary in trouble with the FCC. Bad doggie!) Most disoriented prize goes to Sara, who was awoken from a nap for her star turn. Wellesley, hurry up and get those web broadcasts up, so everyone can hear the madness.
