The best kinds of laughs:
1. The Belly laugh -- usually after a gotcha joke by your friends.
2. The laugh so hard soda squirts out your nose laugh. Often the result of a bad joke told while eating.
3. The giggle attack --- in which once you start you can't stop.
4. The silent laugh -- when it's inappropriate to laugh out loud. Think of seeing toilet paper stuck to your date's shoe.
5. The snort -- can be triggered by all of the above.
6. The orgasmic laugh -- when you fall out of your chair because you are laughing so hard.
7. The heart laugh. When you feel happy in a quiet way and see something that makes you feel the world is a good place after all.

Take Time Out
Saturday, February 17, 2007
time out Current mood: touched Category: Life
Moments of grace: sunlight through pine trees, sun on icefields with no footprints, a glimpse of bright red cardinal through the snow.
Suddenly, I feel so alive.

Best Movies for Valentine's Day
good day for an old movie
Top 10 favorite Valentine's Day Movies
1. Moonstruck
favorite line:"We are here for our hearts to be broken." Single or married -- it's so true for us all.
2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind--
Because you would do it all over again even if you knew what you were getting into.
3. Everafter. Because Cindarella needs to stop being such a wussie and learn to kick butt.
4. The Horse Whisperer. Because Montana is beautiful.
5. Amelie. Just because. You know you like it too.
6. Raising Arizona. Because it's much more fun too watch than something drippy a la "Affair to Remember" or "Sleepless in Seattle" (choke, gag, cough.)
7. The Thomas Crown Affair --the remake. Witty, provocative.
8. As Good as it Gets. Because Jack Nicholson is such a loveable bastard.
9. and 10. Any suggestions to finish the list?

approaching deadline
The days keep slipping away closer to election day, closer to the moment when I squeeze into a booth, pull the curtain shut and pull the levers.
Connecticut is considered a crucial state for public feeling on Iraq.
I'm not sure if Ned Lamont will win.
I know Connecticut will hurt if we lose Lieberman. He's been able to deliver on environmental issues because of his tight relationships with the Republicans.
We're facing increasing pressure from energy and utility companies to turn Long Island Sound into a stockyard for liquified natural gas and transmission pipelines.
The Sound is congested enough as it is with marine traffic, fisheries and cargo ships.
Then there's Iraq. I hesitate to vote over one issue.
Yanking the troops out of Iraq seems to be a concession to violent thugs who seem hellbent on forcing Iraq into civil war whether the US is there or not.
Mercy for our troops will be merciless to the civilians.
I wonder if there is any hope for Iraq?
If I vote for Ned, will he just push to pull the troops out and then forget about the Middle East. Will our nation turn within as Iraqis cannibalize their own country.
There seems to be no right answer, no absolute right way to go.
My heart goes out to the American soldiers coming back maimed from a war they never really understood.
I wonder how they will vote.
Will they vote for Lamont to pull their brothers in arms out of the fire?
Or will they vote for Lieberman to make sure that the Americans soldiers who died in Iraq's sands died to make that nation's people free?
