We’re headed to LA on Wednesday to see the Dalai Lama speak. The website to buy tickets to the public talk is here. I about fell over when I went there this morning (just for the hell of it since we got tickets month ago) because, according to this site, the “concert” is “presented by the House of Blues.”

Irony anyone?

We went to a couple’s house yesterday for an afternoon small party, it being a Sunday with a holiday Monday to follow. During the after dinner conversation the subject turned briefly to Nicole Richie and her eating disorder (if you don’t know how bad it is, look here). We were all talking about how terrible she looks when Bill, who is generally a funny guy–a transplant from Missouri and gay (I say this only so you can imagine the soft, semi-southern accent)–said “She could use a Dorito for a hang glider.”
