So I was sitting next to my boss at our National Sales Meeting and she was wondering why the speaker was just rehashing business we had already heard about 10 times. I said, "He's a dud." and then waited 5 seconds and leaned over and whispered, "Not that there's anything wrong with that." This earned a spit take and uncontrollable giggles for awhile (think "Danny's Wedding" or a few weeks ago at Mass with the Nugents.) Thanks, Quinn! This will really position me well for a promotion :)
We had Condoleeza Rice as a key note speaker - she was very good. She must have left every meeting with Bush saying WTF to herself. Him, too. Although she strikes me as a very loyal person. And I can see her strength as a representative of the US to the world. She was very diplomatic in her answers to questions from the very Republican-leaning crowd. I got to shake her hand - imagine the long list of other people she's done that with? We also heard and met Bob Costas, Richard Simmons, Nastia Lukien, Brian Clay, Bruce Jenner and Mary Lou Retton. It was a lot of fun.
BTW, if anyone wants to lower their cholesterol, there's a new clinical study just published this week that if you lower your calories by 500 per day and eat 3 cups of Cheerios per day, you will lower your cholesterol by 10% in 1 month! So either buy Cheerios or buy stock. Just kidding about the stock - we have been languishing.
Back to work! Take care,

COndoleezza and Richard Simmons? That sounds like some new form of torture.
Condi is a very interesting person. One thing I noticed about her right away is that her voice quavered dramatically whenever she was telling an obvious lie. Best example: "No one could have predicted that they would fly planes into a building."
I'm not sure if her "tell" says something good about her or not.
