Me too. In "which go-go would you be" game, I was always Jane. My little sister was Belinda. She was also Susannah Hoffs in the "which Bangle would you be" game.

For most people it will wind up having been more traumatic than their death will be. But let's put that to one side.

False & True.

Can't imagine better days than the day I got married and the day my first child was born. I loved the day each was born, but there is something about the first one. If there are days that good in the future, well, ye-ha!

The worst day of my life would be if any of my immediate family members goes before me. Can't get worse than that. Certainly my death wouldn't be.

I'll admit that because of my apparently Amish upbringing I still confuse the following groups:

BeeGees
Bangles
GoGos
Beach Boys

I cannot seem to keep them straight.

Also, I kept thinking that Richie Sambora was in Motley Crue until Mr. Kiss pointed out that that would be pretty awkward, given the Heather Locklear deal.

Check out the fun going down (so to speak, not that there is anything wrong with that) in Minnesota:

I mostly refer this to your attention because rarely do your see our state supreme court dropping a footnote to define "booty call." See FN 1.

And now I just cannot leave this site alone, becuase I can see the recent searches and wonder if one you posters conducted it.

Who checked The Ataris? EWWWWWW!!

Utilizing my abilities to see into the future, I say True and False.

Thinking about what G3 (I think) said, while my son's birth was truly wonderful, the day overall was pretty rough. Lots of exhaustion, pain, agony. Plus all the stuff Mrs. Finch went through. And a good deal of fear for both of them along the way.

That, and he looked pretty gruesome when he first arrived. And I like watching him grow up more than I liked watching him get born.

As to the worst day part, that's private. You'll just have to trust me.

Anyone play any of these Indie games?

July 31 — A deadly green protoplasm undergoes mitosis at a horrific pace. Your mission: Punish the invading ooze with withering fire from your micro-gun. The game play is addictive. The soundtrack is awful, but in that self-aware “we know we’re being cheesy” sort of way. As for the graphics ... well, it looks like a blob. INDEPENDENT COMPUTER GAMING. It’s not always pretty, but ask any one in the biz and they’ll say that it represents the purest form of game development. And sometimes the cheapest. A check for ten bucks sent to a site called Cheap Ass Games buys you “Dr. Blob’s Organism.”
And because indie gaming lies outside of the publisher money train — and all the corporate pressures to follow trends — it often delivers some of the most creative PC games available to an audience far beyond your typical 19-year-old gamer.
“Teenage Lawnmower,” from Robinson Technology, a Japan-based husband and wife team, plays like a Gen Y afterschool special, with an alcoholic mother, an abusive boyfriend and a lawnmower gig.

True and true.

I look forward to our first child, and I fear the loss of our loved ones.

I love this quote...
"There should be some common sense here," Goldman said. "It's either prosecutorial mania, an obsession with child pornography, or it's an opportunity for a prosecutor to be a jerk."

Or all of the above.

Very interesting question. Difficult to answer.

1) False, unless I feel unexpectedly happy about the birth of my unborn children, or I get asked to write an article about "what really happens in the locker room of the Russian Federation Cup team."

2) False, unless something unexpectedly awful happens to my fiance or our as-yet unborn children.

Best: I have no idea, and don't really want to know.

Worst: I think I have already felt the worst I ever will. The day I felt that way therefore must be the worst day of my life. However, it's entirely possible that the worst day is yet to come, if all the events of each of my days were judged objectively by not me.
