   	Fixing Superbowl, you mean?  I hope that's it; I'd be more   
   than a bit disturbed if I could tell the correct spelling of Federline   
   since, honestly, I don't know a blasted thing about him other than he   
   gets made fun of every fourteen minutes or so somewhere on TV.

   	Oh, yeah, it should have been.  Well, I'm impressed that I   
   can get nearly all my typing into words (it gets very sloppy when I'm   
   at transcription speed).  Getting to the right words would mean I'd   
   have to slow down posting a new night's entries by, oh, five, ten   
   minutes or more.

   	You know, I *thought* it was Barack, but wasn't sure, and when   
   the screen showed it as 'Barak' I accepted it and changed my entry   
   from the Conologue with his name.
