aww yeah yeah ooh-ee yolanda
Mark your calendars - something interesting happened in my life today. Yolanda from The Amazing Race 9 was totally working out at my gym just now. As it turns out, she grew up here and went to UF. I was totally reality star-struck. I couldn't take my eyes off her. She was a mere five feet away. Isn't my life interesting?

ennui
Sometimes my friends and I feel like we've reached the end of the Internet. I mean how long can one actually spend reading The Onion or stalking old high school alums on MySpace? But David and I found a way to pass the time yesterday - by critiquing various state flags. So I've decided to go a step further and show you my Top Ten State Flags and the what motto might be adopted by a state based on its flag design. (Note: Feel free to add additional mottos via the comment link)
