SMILE! (Like You Mean It)
Last night was pretty quiet. We briefly talked about going out and doing something but the better part of laziness won out. Then we spent a good bit of time discussing what we were going to do for dinner. Once again, we took the lackadaisical route and ended up grabbing a couple of sub sandwiches from Tubby's. We were able, though, to catch the season premiere of Survivor (men vs. women, again -- yawn!), the second episode of Joey (eh) and the season premiere of Will & Grace with special guest star Jennifer Lopez -- this one was funny! I loved the whole Kaballah thing. Will & Grace is always funny in a topical way. The BEST thing about last night was that I saw a commercial for THE REAL WORLD/ROAD RULES CHALLENGE: BATTLE OF THE SEXES 2
OMG! I'm so excited. Head over to the site to see who the players are this time -- but I'll let you know now, both Veronica and Katie are back for more! Wee!!! It debuts October 11th at 10pm.
And now, today's goss:
And finally, I was able to order a nicer digital camera yesterday. I like my Elph S500 but I wanted my next digital camera to be more "professional" with a nice lens and more manual controls. I wasn't looking for one, but I stumbled across the Kodak DX6490 and it had everything I wanted for a very reasonable price (around $300).
Now, hopefully, I will be able to take more professional-looking photographs at concerts and stuff. I did a lot of reading on this camera and there wasn't a single negative review that I could find. I also ordered a big memory card for it (unfortunately, it uses an SD card so I can't use my 1Gb Compact Flash card for it) and had them both overnight delivered. They should arrive at my house by noon.
Woo!
I have to work on my lecture for today so I'll probably be pretty busy today. I'll post more if the need arises.

And now, today's goss:
- Autopsy reports are oftentimes very shocking. This one, not so much; Rick James' death was probably due to the 9 different drugs that were found in his system. The report said: "None of the drugs or drug combinations were found to be at levels that were life-threatening in and of themselves." The singer's family attributed his death to natural causes, and the coroner said the cause was a heart attack and ruled the death as accidental. Accidental? Okay ...
- Nicole Richie has come out with her own line of clothing -- it's called That's Hot, naturally.
- Is she or isn't she? Avril was seen canoodling with the lead singer from Hoobasucks at the World Music Awards. Since Deryk is denying their engagement maybe he's trying to get back at him or something? God, all of this stuff is soooo juvenile.
- A woman who lost her son in Iraq was arrested for heckling Laura Bush at a campaign rally that she had a ticket for. HAMILTON, New Jersey (CNN) -- The mother of a soldier killed in Iraq was arrested Thursday after interrupting a campaign speech by first lady Laura Bush. As police hauled her away, she shouted, "Police brutality."
Wearing a T-shirt with the message "President Bush You Killed My Son," Sue Niederer of nearby Hopewell screamed questions at the first lady ... This is so horrible. If GWB is reelected then it is likely that more mothers are going to lose their sons and daughters. GWB must be ousted!!!
