DCAHNM 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 TIL that my daughter's kindergarten teacher is retiring at the end of this year! woo hoo!!! She's a super nice lady and all, but the kids in that class are so poorly-behaved (and I don't think she has much control over that) and it has rubbed off on my kid. 2 years down with her. None to go!! Yay! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magnolia 171 Report post Posted March 16, 2011 ^ Oh man, wouldn't THAT be something!?! TIL that sometime recently (don't really know when!) that people's sign of the Zodiac changed? Something about the earth's rotation, they added a new one and changed the dates for others?! I'm no big atrology follower but I always thought that my sign of Libra was right on. Wonder how I missed this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LizzieB 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2011 TIL Benmont played on Ryan Adams new record. Ok, first, this is the first I've heard Ryan is working on a new record and second, BENMONT IS ON IT! Ryan posted a picture of YGGI on FB (on his Record Store Day wish list) and said, "BENMONT!!!! Benmonth [sic] just rocked on my new record and what a blast we had. This man is instant vibe and essential to any movie-night hang." This is so cool because I adore Benmont and Ryan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
