BLAST YOU CARTOGRAPHER!
I've been living a lie.
SALT LAKE CITY - Tourists who think they're putting a hand or foot in each of four U.S. states at the Four Corners area are apparently missing the mark — by about 2.5 miles.
National Geodetic Survey officials say the Four Corners marker showing the intersection of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah is about 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) west of where it should be, the Deseret News reported.
The only place in the United States where four state boundaries come together was first surveyed by the government in 1868 during the initial survey of Colorado's southern boundary. The survey was inaccurate.

TRHWoNJ, NYC, ATL, OC, LOL, BRB
Welcome to the world, ladies! (and I use that term loosely.) I watched the series preview of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. I enjoy their sister show TRHWoNYC and so I figured I'd give it a shot. Well, they are all related by blood or marriage. They have ridiculously thick accents. They have lots of money for no apparent reason. This series looks to be all it could be...awesome.

It is finished....
The score is love in tennis these days: Now Andy Roddick is married, too, a week after Roger Federer tied the knot.
Roddick, the 2003 U.S. Open champion, and Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Brooklyn Decker became husband and wife at his Austin, Texas, home, a guest at the wedding told The Associated Press on Saturday.
Elton John sang for the bride and groom at a reception held at a country club after the ceremony Friday night, the guest said, speaking on condition of anonymity because it was a private function not open to the media.
People.com first reported about the wedding.
The 26-year-old Roddick announced his engagement to the 22-year-old model in March 2008.
Among those attending the wedding were tennis great Billie Jean King, Roddick's Davis Cup teammates James Blake and Mardy Fish and U.S. Davis Cup captain Patrick McEnroe.
Roddick finished 2003 ranked No. 1. He is currently No. 6.
Federer, who owns 13 Grand Slam singles titles, married longtime girlfriend Mirka Vavrinec last weekend in a small ceremony in his hometown of Basel, Switzerland.
