It was a loooong day for Miss Paige


I looked over after Paige was eerily quiet for about a minute, and here she was. Fast asleep. Say it with me: "Ahhhhhhh." Posted by Picasa

Google Image Tagger

Google is genius!

Check out this tool:  http://images.google.com/imagelabeler/

When you go there, you are teamed up with another person automatically and asked to tag an image.  When you match a tag, you get points.  Not only are you having fun, but you are making google images searches better.  Super genius!

It's strangely addictive, give it a try!

Pickle Light Bulb: You've always wanted to do this!

Take a look at this site that gives very simple instructions on how to turn an everyday deli pickle into a light bulb.

"Look, Ma - the pickle glows!"

A quote from my Mother

I swear this is the exact quote:
 
"I have to start drinking again so I can stop falling down."

5 of 9 Jiffy Lubes SCAMMED this undercover reporter

I have used Jiffy Lubes in the last few months.... this is unreal, especially at the end when the district manager lies about who he is.

Cool Optical Exercise

After watching this video, I felt like I had done acid. Again*.

To get it to play in full screen, double click the player when the video starts.




* I just said that to be cool, the closest I have come to acid was mailing a post card.

Maine Mystery Beast

It was charcoal gray, weighed between 40 and 50 pounds and had a bushy tail, a short snout, short ears and curled fangs hanging over its lips, he said. It looked like "something out of a Stephen King story."

Charlotte Observer | 08/18/2006 | Firing disputed

Whooaaaaa, check this quote out from the complaint that Mayfield filed against Ray Evernham:

"Instead, for significant periods of time he had been, at best, and absentee manager and owner largely because at some point in time Ray Evernham had entered into an (sic) close personal relationship with a female driver he engages to drive on NASCAR's ARCA, Truck and Busch Series. That relationship became a subject of considerable discussion and distraction in the Nextel Cup garage area during the 2006 season."

Erin Crocker is the only female driver employed by Evernham Motorsports.


Whhhooaaaa, that's sexual harrasment!  And Erin Crocker ain't no looker either.
