We always knew he was trouble...

Also, happy belated birthday to my friend Claudia - it was technically two days ago, but I kinda forgot yesterday, and it's now past midnight today, er, yesterday. Anyway, happy birthday, and good luck to you in the music department. :)

Incidentally, Mr. Russell is from Florida, which announced today a promotion by Krispy Kreme doughnuts in which elementary school students in West Palm Beach will receive a free doughnut for every 'A' found on their report cards. What fun! Now we can study and get fat all at the same time. Of Krispy Kreme's 30 varieties of doughnut found on its nutritional information, the highest caloric content is 350 (The Chocolate Iced Kreme Filled *and* the Caramel Kreme Crunch), while the lowest, 200, would be the Original Glazed and the Sugar doughnuts. The average caloric content of all of these is a whopping 284. For each A you get on your report card, the reward is a fried and then sugar-coated and possibly sugar-filled fried dough puff. Insane.

And for another bit of trivia, an ex-girlfriend of mine is from Winston-Salem, NC, the home of Krispy Kreme doughnuts. I am from Boston, the home of Dunkin' Donuts. We had a few arguments as to the relative merits of our hometown dough puffs. As you can infer, we are no longer dating...
