May. 16th, 2012 04:50 pmThere is a news story at the moment about one of Australia's Olympic archery competitors. Or maybe she's not going. I don't know. I only read so far, then zoned out. I am shockingly uninterested in the composition of the Olympic archery team. What level of interest I do have, though, is piqued by the name of this young woman: Odette Snazelle. Say that aloud. Doesn't it beg to be accompanied by jazz hands? 'Hi, I'm Odette [jazz hands] Snazelle!'
Driving home tonight, I was behind a car with a set of those stick figure family stickers on the back window. There was a woman playing golf, a space, a child on a bike and another child with a ball. The space puzzled me, because it was large enough not to be someone applying the stickers wildly, but not large enough to be a design statement. Just before I turned off, it hit me: the space was big enough for another sticker. Somebody has been removed! It's a stick figure family breakdown. So sad.
