Sequential License Plates

What are the odds of seeing 2 sequential license plates at one time?

Or what are the odds of seeing 2 sequential Alaska license plates at one time? In Virginia.

And they didn't even seem to be going to the same place. Or at least they had the loosest definition of a convoy ever.

Today's Word Of The Day

Pouhon

The Belgian Grand Prix is this weekend. And I just watched the practice session. And there's a corner in the track named Pouhon. Which is really fun to say.

Today's Word Of The Day

Bravery.

I wore a tie with a shirt that wasn't white.

For the first time in my life.

Dating Advice by Dr. Rodney McKay

David Hewlett really needs to come out with this book.

It would be awesome.

And would involve the words such as "interchanges" and "whatnot" more than any other dating advice books.

Jamie Ray Newman

Dr. Tess Fontana is much more attractive than Lt. Laura Cadman. Even though they're both played by Jamie Ray Newman.

Its probably the fact that Cadman wears that stupid beret.

Normally, I'm a fan of hats, and never like to complain about anyone rocking a hat, but seriously. Berets? They're dumb as hell. You just cannot pull those off with any sort of style.

I've actually been witness to a good 10 or so minute conversation between some military folk discussing the ridiculousness of the standard issue Army beret, and how its damned impossible to wear it without looking like a complete clown.

Also, I'm highly amused by this episode (Duet). Because the one episode where they have multiple guys with machine guns and rocket launchers is the one time they get used.

Also, Major Lorne and Dr. Zelenka are both completely awesome characters.
