Skipped curling tonight as advertised, and watched Canada lose 2-1 to Norway in the bronze medal sledge hockey game for the Paralympians. Then I happened upon NBC DATELINE, and saw something called THE INSTANT MESSAGE MURDER. A woman wanted her Internet fantasy lover to murder her husband, which he did... but then he killed himself a few months later. Nice morbid stuff for a Friday night! Then I watched TLC, which I should do more often - comparing your weddings against other brides for a honeymoon prize? Sweet!

Trivia fact for Saturday, Mar. 20: When it comes to geology, what is a hoodoo? A tall, oddly-shaped column or pillar of varying thickness, created by the differential weathering of rocks of varying hardness.
