...and now for what's happening in your neck of the woods.

Guy: Do you remember back in September when Russia invaded Georgia?
Girl: Yes.
Guy: Yeah, when I heard that I was freaking out because I thought Russia had invaded the Georgia in the United States. A week later, I saw a map of Russia and Georgia on the television and figured out that Georgia was also a country... haha.
Girl: You went for a week thinking that the Russians had invaded Atlanta?!
Guy: Yeah, I just figured it was not a very big invasion. I thought that if it had been significant, it would have been on the Today show!

Truth or Myth?

[Students are discussing bringing a Thanksgiving dinner to school.]
Girl 1: I can make mashed potatoes.
Girl 2: ...and I'll bring dressing!
Guy: I'll bring the cranberry sauce... and the coffee, because we all know how the pilgrims loved to sit around and drink coffee with Sasquatch.

Eavesdroppers Turns Two

November 7, 2006, Eavesdroppers began.
Two years, 527 posts, and 22, 951 hits later, the time has come for an Eavesdroppers revival.
Beginning today, quotes will be posted more frequently than they have been of late.
Thanks again to all of you who've been a part of these two great years.
Eavesdrop on!
