The 2009 Scripps Spelling Bee Finals...

...is on tonight!! (http://www.spellingbee.com/) Who's going to geek out and watch it along with me?

If you like to take spelling tests, there's a fun quiz on the website with typical words used in the contest.

/must curb enthusiasm.

I'll be watching! I had the semi-finals on this morning. Fun!

I saw the one where the little indian kid with a full mustache beat the little indian kid without one with "Guerdon."

ah that's last year's I see. The little mustache boy is apparently a finalist again this year.

Based on his facial hair I'd say his 23rd year of Jr. High is going very well for him.

Seriously. I didn't have this much facial hair until i was married.
