Well, this can’t be good. Seems that if this drought keeps going and the water level of Lake Anna dips below 244 feet they may have to shut down the North Anna nuclear power plant (the water level’s currently at 246 feet). Lord knows what effect this would have on Virginia, but are we looking at a Virginia power crisis? Toss on the strike and Dominion Power looks pretty screwed as of late.

Oh boy! Uncle Bert’s Fun Page is spiffy!

Save Karen or Don’t Save Karen. You decide.

WTFWJD? May be offensive to most people.

Losers. From Will.

GASP! Jesus hawking beer was defaced! Perhaps someone failed to realize it wasn’t serious and was a social commentary?

Oh yeah…

I haven’t told you all about my new car, have I? Yeah, last week I went out celebrated J’s Notes’ first anniversary by getting myself a 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer! Oooooo…. It’s a pretty smooth car. Not quite the Mini Cooper, but a hell of a lot better than my ’94 Ford Escort Wagon that failed inspection and needed a grand put into it to pass. Never, ever buy a Ford, folks, not if you want to get your money’s worth.

So I took my new car and old girlfriend out to Charlottesville for a day trip yesterday. Quite fun. We walked around UVA and what not, nice day out and worth the trip. Need to do things like that more often. Jenn and I have been discussing moving out to C’ville to go to school next year, so it was neat to go out there and walk around and go “wow, we should move out here and go to school.” The best part of the trip, well, for Jenn, was probably the discovery of the Whole Foods, some hippy organic health food store that sold Jenn on moving to the area. It’s actually a neat store, pretty big for a health store and full of neat stuff that I’ll probably end up trying whether I want to or not. The joys of dating someone who cares more about my diet than I do.
