Eclipse from space
Things from space are so awesome. If you've never seen a picture of an eclipse from space, use caution because the awesome can be lethal for the uninitiated. If you have (which is more likely) this is still awesome because it just happened today, and we have pictures of it from space because we human beings have created all manner of space craft that we rocket into orbit and have do our bidding. When does the awesome stop? Never.

" 'I am not exaggerating. My child is literally coughing his head off.'
I think she showed an admirable amount of restraint not taking the poor kid to the emergency room. It must take nerves of steel to leave such a precise and factual message for your pediatrician when your child’s head is falling off."

Baby's Named a Bad, Bad Thing
what so you all think about Vegas Danielle??? Noone likes it and my husband says im crazy. I really like it but i dont want to name her that if everyone is just going to make fun of it. HELP!!!
My first entry here was "Well, I'm glad Peter Noone likes it, but how do the other Herman's Hermits feel?"
But reader Tigris thought this was a bit presumptuous of me, and suggested I write to Peter and find out what Noone REALLY thinks.
Noone wrote back right away. And sure enough, Noone likes it. In fact, that was his entire response: "I like it."
So now we have our answer! And we've had our very first celebrity guest appearance!
(Still no word on the other Hermits.)
