Never lived in Sacramento or attended a home Kings game. Been to MSG and the (now) Izod Center for Kings road games though
I get that a lot, usually it's "aren't you related to ______________"

So, I went camping up near Caples Lake (Carson Pass) last night. This morning we did a hike up to the ridge top (~9,500 feet) and saw a bald eagle soaring through the valley below us. It was very cool.

love the smell of freshly bathed baby.
I think I may have broken my right big toe - but won't have time to have it looked at until maybe Thursday. We'll see how it feels after tomorrow..... 
Is there a doctor in the house than can tell from a photo? My heel slipped on a carpeted stairway and I jammed my toe into the step below it earlier today.

I'm not a doctor but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn. 
Seriously? It looks a lot like my toe looked when there was a mutiny one night and four toes went on the left side of a chair leg while the big toe decided to go on the right side. It hurt like hell for a couple of days but wasn't broken. The worst part was trying to wear shoes...
Watch for red streaks going up your foot, a lack of circulation in the toe and ... well, your toe falling off.

Just got home from the ER - and I have to drive to Fresno in about 4 hours.
Went in and had it looked at because I was getting some numbness and tingling in it. Sat for 2 hours in the waiting room at the ER. Another hour sitting on a bed (why do they have you sit on a bed? Give me a flipping chair and free up the beds for the really "sick") waiting for the X-rays. Take X-rays. Wait another hour for them to look at it and tell me what they see. Which is a slight fracture of the toe, but nothing they can really do (or need to do) - take ibuprofin for swelling. Luckily, it doesn't really hurt much.
4 hours to get an X-ray? Is this really necessary?
Portland is expected to hit 106 or 107 today Seattle may break 100 for the first time ever if I heard the news right. I'm not really a big fan of the expression "But its a dry heat!" but I think I'd take that right now. This is getting old in a hurry.

Not Suzie. Actually, that little rhyme is believed to have been written about Mary Anning. I learned about her and her rather amazing life not too long ago. There's quite a bit of info about her online. Here's one site http://www.answers.com/topic/mary-anning
There's a museum on the site where she was born http://www.lymeregismuseum.co.uk/fossils.htm
Other people were credited with her fossil finds, like people who bought the fossils she sold for a living.
I'm sure you're glad you asked.

I might buy a Ron Artest Kings jersey for like 35 dollars. But, he's a Laker.. so I don't know if I can get myself to buy it.
I could a had me a V8.
I had to work on a Sunday, for the first time in over a year. And I didn't get to see my son this weekend because I only get custody on weekends and, guess what, I worked this weekend. And then, to add insult to injury, I only have a half hour for lunch on this cycle. A ****ing half-hour. Thirty minutes is not enough time for a grown adult to enjoy a meal, even at ****ing Chili's; hell, you have to discount almost fifteen minutes just for the round trip travel time. Thirty minutes is barely even enough time to decompress from the **** you have to put up with in the first four hours...
Anyway, ranting aside, customer calls in and asks about ordering the service. Only I don't work in sales, I work in tech support. And sales is closed on Sundays. So I gotta answer all these damned questions, and then tell her that she has to call back on Monday. I felt like I was in this scene (the part from 0:30-1:40):

Drink whiskey to stay healthy?
Finally, a health-fad that I can get on board with!

So it appears that I have hit the eight-thousand post mark. Again. Last time I had the fourth-most posts, behind VF, Brick and NME 
eek. I don't know if I'm still even in the top-ten or not, but I know there's at least four people with 10K+. The only thing I find interesting about this is the fact that it took me a hair over five years to do the second time what took me a a hair under two years to do the first time.
Reminds me of a one-liner (two-liner?) by Redd Foxx: Define "frustration:" frustration is finding out for the first time that you can't do it the second time.
And "panic:" panic is finding out for the second time that you can't do it the first time.

Don't you remember that time you forgot the donuts? Our Admin is a vengeful Admin...
But, I know a couple mods who'd love to have you back in the "Big Boy Chair," if you were amenable to it; one of them likes to post in teal...

Rack up another example for people to point to when calling California full of fruits and nuts.
Edit:: I guess if you don't make it back you won't need the money anyway.

You know, I just want to say that I really get a kick out of talking to my Pops about the WNBA... Parents tend to be hard to buy for in general, but I really hit it out when I got him season tickets to the Atlanta Dream's inaugural season last year; he renewed on his own this season, and really enjoys going to every game.
Can't wait until I go back home later this month for the Monarchs game; much trash talking will be had...
