Phew. All is still well with the world.

My middle school book group scared the crap out of me at our last meeting--Napoleon Dynamite came up in conversation, and one of the kids said, "Oh, he just died in a motorcyle accident."

WHAT?

So I just Googled "jon heder accident" and got this.

While I looked for that, I came across info about Napoleon Dynamite festivals (yes, plural):

The movie has been embraced by the city of Preston, Idaho, which is staging its own "Napoleon Dynamite" festival in June. Earlier this month, the Idaho Legislature adopted a resolution praising "Napoleon Dynamite" and director Jared Hess, a native of Preston, for promoting tourism in the state. The resolution warned that legislators who cast "nay" votes would be branded "freakin' idiots!" It was adopted unanimously.
