Mapquest tells me that the drive to LA is 803 miles and to House 745 miles. By air, LA is 701 and House 646. I don't know how far it is as the crow flies, but unless the El Paso airport is well east of the city, I think this trivia is wrong.

But, more importantly, how can you ever know too much about midwifery?

Now that you've cited Mapquest, I recall it as an easy resource. I think the answer is that the cities in question are either Texarkana (815 miles) or Beaumont (832 miles). People just substitute Houston because they don't know the other two as well.

As to your question, I really don't have an answer.

No, but I just finished The Wind-Up Bird Chronicles and liked it very very much.

Baby is due in about a month. Would a pre-delivery massage be a good baby shower gift? Would you have gone to any ole masseuse or are there specialists who work on pregnant women?

1) I would have hated it. A lot. But there again, I don't like people touching me unless I intend to have sex with them.
2) They have people specialized in preggo massage.
3) Make sure her Dr. says it is OK before you blow the cash.

Sorry, Hank, I know you've been trying hard, but since I don't believe in all of that touch-feely self-esteem-building bullshit, it doesn't matter. The best you are ever going to get is misunderstood. Genius just ain't gonna happen.

This was a tiny bit of genius. Too bad you had to read the entire post to get to it. But I suppose sometimes you have to get through the bushes to reach the picnic.

From the aptly-named blog The Superficial:

This past weekend, Paris Hilton had a hot, young Hollywood newcomer by the name of Ellen Hollman fired off the set of National Lampoon's: Pledge This, because she thought Ellen was too pretty. Literally, Paris refused to come to work, until Ellen was fired off the film. She was afraid that Ellen was going to take the attention away from her in all the scenes that they shared.

Ellen, a 21 year old stunner from NYC who relocated to Los Angeles just several weeks ago, happened to be the sweetest and nicest girl on the set according to other cast memebers and the crew.

Yeah, I can understand why that skeletal little shit felt threatened.

My Kenyan relatives think it's funny that tilapia is served at fancy restaurants. Despite the fact that a few of them were raised in huts, they are now kind of snobby and think of tilapia as peasant food and would not touch it.

Tell these Kenyan relatives that if we took cultural advice from them, Lee Harvey Oswald would still be President. Booya!

Free Tilapia!

Yes. Why?

Several.


Speaking of black chicks, if we were, why does the apprentice feel the need to pick crazy black chicks for its show? I find that very disappointing. At least the black chick seemed kind of crazy, though not in an Omarosa way.

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - For the driver looking for more in a pickup --one that dwarfs the Hummer and the Ford F-350 -- Navistar has just the ride for you.

The new CXT -- short for commercial extreme truck and built from the same platform as the heavy-truck maker's typical tow truck or cement mixer -- will be sold starting this week by Navistar's International Truck & Engine subsidiary.

At 258 inches, or 21-1/2 feet long, the CXT is about 4-1/2 feet longer than the new Hummer H2 pickup, and about 2 inches longer than the F-350 Crew Cab. But the way it really towers over what's on the road now is in height. At 108 inches, or 9 feet, the CXT stands only a foot below a basketball rim and more than two feet above the Hummer or the F-350.

"It's not going to fit into the standard garage," said Mark Oberle, a spokesman for Navistar, based in Warrenville, Ill., outside Chicago. "We can see it as a vehicle for business people who want to make a distinct impression. For personal use, it's for people who want to make a statement."
