So last night I had to make an unexpected trip to and from Illinois, which pretty much sucked.

However, I took the opportunity to listen to Sufjan Steven's "Illinois" album. This is a great cd no matter where you might choose
to listen...but it's as if the planets align and something unbelievable happens when you actually listen on the open Illinois
road.


As with most things, it seems that all was not lost.

And bonus points to anyone who gets the pop culture reference in the title of this post.

My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nine . . . I guess she didn't serve us anything since Pluto isn't a planet any more! :)

oh man I'm kinda surprised you don't know...

remember that episode of Saved By the Bell where Bayside goes against Valley in the academic bowl? When Screech lands in the hospital before the competition, Zach joins the team and Screech tries to teach him everything he knows. MVEMJSUNP is the word Screech tells Zach to remember planetary order.

Not surpisingly, the winning question Belding asks is "Name the planets in order, starting closest to the sun."

Bayside rules, Valley drools.

So, it looks like I'm a couple of years late, but I would love some saved by the bell trivia questions if you're up to it...
