Seriously now, when Spencer and Heidi wave their arms and get plastic surgery and buy crystals and stuff to try to get your attention, just turn away. Enough of them. Only, one last thing--did Heidi request the "Permanently Worried" package at the plastic surgeon's? I admit it, I watched "The Hills", this was once a very cute, bubbly, girl.

I had an experience Thursday night I just don't know how to explain. I was at a lecture. On the seat to my left, I had my back pack, and to the left of that was an empty seat. A man leaned over from behind me and said, "Are these two seats free?" I said they were, and shoved my pack under my chair. He wended his way down the aisle, sat in the seat next to mine, and in the seat to his left, he put his back pack. Not another human being, his pack. Why did his back pack have higher status than mine? Hitzy suggested it's his girlfriend, "Packy", and sure, if it had had a face painted on it, I could understand. Even if he'd only asked, "Are these seats taken?" But he specified, "Are these two seats free?" Or if he'd been carrying explosives, of course you wouldn't want the bottom of a chair to deflect the blast, but none of those perfectly logical explanations seems to be true!
