Her mother is kinda secretive on it. She tried last year too but got bumped in the first round but was encouraged to try again. Her mother didn't tell anyone and finally told me late last season. I'm not working there anymore, but I do call to say hi. I'll have to dig for info! I haven't heard her sing, but I guess she's won some local contests.

I learned that my daughter's messy room doesn't really seem that bad after watching an episode or two of Hoarders.

I learned a little something about turkey anatomy by overhearing the following, as my daughter was watching my wife prepare the bird for Saturday's meal: "Mom, see that part? I think that's the wiener."

Thinkgeek.com has tauntaun sleeping bags! Even better the zipper is a lightsaber and the interior has a tauntaun guts pattern.

I am compelled to purchase this on the off chance I might actually have a use for it, just so somebody will go; "Really man? WFT!"
