Million-dollar idea:
megburns: (aka something I want to exist so I assume others will as well) Cart sharing. When online shopping, I really wish I had the ability to share my entire cart via email. I need friend’s opinions before purchasing and it’s really annoying to gather individual links/photos to send myself. I know shoebuy.com has something like this, but I feel like it should be developed as a social...

a couple of things
working from home today so i can attend a coworker’s baby shower in our jersey office. just didn’t make sense to go to work in the city this morning, b/c i’d have to come back into the city to be able to get home, and that’s clearly just ridiculous. working from home when harley isn’t around means i can actually get some work done, so that’s novel. plus i...

thebluehour asked: Re: Sandusky --- I 100% agree that he should be vilified from the rafters. But until people know his name, I think any attention drawn to it, is good.

I guess that's the price of fame, you are more exposed. If this was a small...

two cents or so
not really sure why i feel a need to chime in about this, but here i go. it seems pretty cut and dry to almost everyone paying attention that joe paterno did not do enough.  he did not meet (and certainly did not exceed) whatever moral obligation we, as a society, put upon a person in a position of power and respect. that said, he did report the issue. and the only reason people are as obsessed...

maybe buy some blue stuff just in case?
last night i had the inevitable (i think) dream that we had a boy. in the dream, i didn’t even remember giving birth (maybe i’ll have a c-section…?) and there i was in a hospital room and the nurses were cleaning up some LARGE baby boy with a thick shock of dark hair and beautiful brown eyes, who was cooing and mewing and babbling up a STORM for a not-even-day-old...
