Yeah, I figured as much (though aliens would have been cooler). Was just surprised by how much gas/pressure was being generated by their biological processes. Impressive.

Haha - these are from Costco! I can't stop shopping there... where else can I buy an entire year's worth of meatballs and macaroni?

While it's difficult to tell from this still frame, all of the kids around her are in constant motion, and all of us parents are jumping around behind the cameras trying to get a good picture. I'm sure Kaia was a bit in shock at all the motion/noise :)

Ha ha ha - you two are funny. But when that one developer nerd who was having the same problem finds this page in google he will be very thankful... I hope :)

Putting a law degree to GOOD use? Sounds like a trick question to me.

(Serious answer: I'm studying for the bar, hoping to take it some time in 2010)

Yeah, these pictures (or that outfit) make her look older than the mental image I have of her. Given how fast these past two years have gone I'm guessing that, as her father, that is probably going to be the case for quite some time. Man, these kids grow up so fast!

You can see the chicken's legs around the 20 second mark. I will try to post a picture of the two costumed individuals this evening. :)

Yes indeed, it's a play on "The Phantom Menace". Well done!

I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul. :)

Yes - when I gave it to her she instantly held it like this. It was like she was BORN TO ROCK!

Yes - we had a "Grand Gathering" of rooms, which means they guarantee that all four of our rooms would be next to each other. When my sister, who was the first to arrive, checked in they didn't have four room next to each other on the "regular" floors so they bumped us up.

So my advice to you: check in early in the day so that the people who haven't checked out yet don't show up as "open room" - perhaps that might help? It's only a guess at why. Probably just dumb luck.

They're all on Hulu, every single episode. It's really, really worth your
time.

oh my god - I have never seen arrested development, but I just pee'ed my pants laughing at the brother-in-law exchange. Genius.

Do I need to start watching it now that it's canceled? Might as well.. just finished Firefly.

Wow - very interesting stuff. Incredible the power of the underlying (and invisible) human cognition factors that dictate so much of human interaction.

Yeah - they gave me a very nice neck massage too during the shampoo phase. The overall experience was good, but the resulting hair cut was disappointing.

Now that I have shampooed it's not a bad cut after all - just bad styling immediately after the cut.

No, it's "Le Tigre". Honestly, can't you tell?

Thanks! I just wish the picture were more in focus.
