This is the second weekend that we’ve seen the Trading Spaces Trailer parked in front of the Omni Hotel downtown. Could camping out in the lobby waiting for a glimpse of someone famous be considered stalking? I’d have to follow them, right? And how far could I follow them before it is considered stalking?

Here’s some shocking evidence that war is not the only way to oust a leader. Fascinating. On a related note, Julien has discovered Calvin and Hobbes. One of the episodes he read last night began with Hobbes: Why do we always play war and not peace? Calvin: Too few role-models.
