TGIF again!
So far so good today. My Tim's order was done to perfection - but I didn't win at Roll up the Rim today. :(

RAPS GAME!
I'm going to the Raptors game at the ACC tonight. They are playing Indiana and should win easily. They beat Indy on Monday - and it was close. But I expect absolute domination tonight.

SUPER BABY
Can you believe this?...
A newborn in India is reported to have fallen through the toilet of a moving train and onto the tracks moments after being born - and survived.
The baby girl was found alive nearly two hours later.
The child's mother, who uses the single name Bhuri, was travelling with relatives on an overnight train when she went to the bathroom shortly before midnight Tuesday.
Her brother-in-law, Arjun Kumar, says that after the train had travelled past two stations, `we knocked on the door' and Bhuri opened it, covered in blood.
He says she told them she had given birth and that the baby had fallen through the toilet, at which time she lost consciousness. Toilets on Indian trains have holes that open directly onto the tracks, and there is no indication authorities doubt Bhuri's story or plan to investigate.
The child, who has not yet been named, was eight to 10 weeks premature and weighed only three pounds, three ounces. However, despite the fact she had a low heart rate and body temperature, doctors expect her to survive.
Crazy! I think they need to do something about those train toilets in India.
