Open Threads

Tammy sends along this pic from the dog slumber party last night:

Apparently everyone else is away, too, so I thought I would throw up an all-purpose open thread before I am occupied for the day. If anything interesting happens, fill us in. Also, college football.

BTW- the lexicon still has definitions that need to be filled out, as well as some of the definitions need to be cleaned up a little bit. We need an example for rebunking, and some of the entries need sourcing.

Also, if there are any glaring omissions, chuck them in here.

Saturday Open ThreadPost + Comments (84)

Got to the hotel in one piece, but I have to say I am a little pissed at some of you readers. How come never told me there is an all Dead channel on XM radio? Listened to an awesome show from Piscataway in 1981 which had a great Franklins/Estimate/Eyes. Nice way to spend the afternoon on the highway.

Another thing- really not sure why people rag on American cars so much- two weeks ago we had a Ford Focus, which was a little small for the two of us as we are both over 6’0″ and 200 lbs (an argument could be made we were two people away from a clown car), but it rode very well. This time, they did not have the kind of car we ordered from the rental place so we ended up with 2010 Buick Lucerne with 400 miles on it. The car was a great highway car- seemed to just eat up the highway, wasn’t boat, seats were comfortable, no road noise, great sound system, AC went all the way down to 60. And the mileage seemed pretty good. One of the nice rides I have had in a while.

I’m just not getting this whole “American cars suck” thing.

I’m on a business trip until Sunday, so I’ll try to pop in an throw up an open thread every now and then. Lily is off to Aunt Tammy’s, and His Tunchness will have the run of the domain (like that is any different from any other day). Try to behave.

Also, vote for Bitsy:

She is over 1300.

Looks like we are back. I hope you all enjoyed WordPress Error as much as I did today, but the blogmistress informs me we are moving to a new server soon. And there was rejoicing.

Consider this an open thread, but please point out any glaring omissions, typos, factual errors, or formatting problems in the dictionary.
