If you have not seen the movie Shopgirl yet, log off your computer, quit your job,whatever you need to do in order to go see this movie. Alright, that may have been a little bit dramatic, but at least add it to your netflix. This was one darling movie. Even Steve Martin, who I usaully find a bit annoying, was wonderfully understated. Claire Danes is becoming a wonderful actress, I was very impressed.
Lindsay and are have having an argument, excuse me a discussion about what normal body temperature is. She is claiming to have a fever. What is normal body temp anyway?

I once heard that the notorious "98.6 degrees Fahrenheit" has no basis whatsoever in medical science, but was rather just the average of a small sample of apparently healthy people some doctor tested at some point in the distant past.
As someone with no medical training whatsoever, I can say with absolute confidence that a "fever" should be defined as 100 degrees or higher.

Is that a Monday-morning fever? Tell her to shut up and keep surfing the 'net for clipart.

Normal body temp is quite subjective. If it's January, the heater is not working and I'm in Minnesota, normal body temp would be about 3 deg F. If I'm with Gregory Harrison in that bed, normal body temp would be about 103 deg F.
I hope this answers your question.
