We are trying to decide if we will go to hcoL sseN when we get to dnaltocS. It would be nice to see el monstruo, but it’s sorta out of the way from hgrubnidE, where we will be most of the time . . . and I know some good ghosts we could see in hgrubnidE, so it’s not as if the trip will lack that supernatural flair.

Speaking of babies, last night, I saw something called Million Dollar Baby. Thankfully, the movie was not about an actual baby and, for once, there were none screaming in the audience. Million Dollar Baby is about Hillary Swank becoming a boxer who keeps knocking her opponents out in the first round. The lesson we can all take away from this is that it would probably be a mistake to box with Hillary Swank if you don’t want to get knocked out in the first round. Another lesson we can all take away from this is that when Hillary Swank was in school, I bet the other kids called her “Swanky.”
