To solve this problem, I just always sing a little sylabyl song in my head when I write it. DE-FI-NITE-LY.

I have three cats at home, so when I found this little gem on StumbleUpon, I just had to laugh. Enjoy you cat lovers (and haters too, haha)!

Thank you “CatStuff” page.

Check out this strangely hilarious video released internally within Kodak, but then later released publicly because of its popularity.

Will Kodak’s cameras be able to put together the story of my life?

Look at this gem taken by Google Earth of navy barracks in California built in the 1960s. The Navy has decided to mask the building with more landscaping… the cost? 600,000 tax-payer dollars.

Watch the CNN video of the swastika building here.

Oh, woe is me for the poor soul who sets up a bank account for this e-mail scam.

Hello

I am Mr. Thomas George, the Auditor General, Linkage Management Solutions Limited UK . In the course of my auditing, I discovered a floating fund in an account which was opened in 1990 belonging to a dead foreigner Late Mr.Robert ,who died in 1999. Every effort made to track any member of his family or next of kin has since failed;hence I got in contact with you to stand as his next of kin since you bear the same last name. He died leaving no heir or a will. My intention is to transfer this sum of $15.5M in the aforementioned account to a safe account overseas. I am therefore proposing that you quietly partner with me and provide an account or set up a new one that will serve the purpose of receiving this fund. For your assistance in this venture, I am ready to part with 30% of the entire funds to you. After going through the deceased person’s records and files, I discovered that:
(1) No one has operated this account since 1999
(2) He died without an heir; hence the money has been floating.
(3) No other person knows about this account and there was no known beneficiary.

If I do not remit this money urgently, it would be forfeited and subsequently converted to company’s funds which will benefit only the directors of my firm. This money can be approved to you legally as with all the necessary documentary approvals in your name. However, you would be required to show some proof of claim which I will provide you with and also guide you on how to make your applications.

Please do give me a reply so that I can send you detailed information on the modalities of my proposition. I completely trust you to keep this proposition absolutely confidential. Kindly forward your telephone and fax numbers where I can reach you easily. I look forward to your prompt response.
Best Regards,
Mr. Thomas George

Just read this bit off of the Fox News wesbite. He should have used the old “My dog ate my brakes. I couldn’t stop. Really.”

The chase, carried live on several local TV stations, ended with the driver pulling over and officers tackling him.

[…]

The man appeared to have blood on his head as officers led him away after the chase ended in Richardson, off busy Highway 75 just north of Dallas.

The man told reporters at the scene that his cat was dying and he was rushing to get the animal to a veterinarian. When asked why he didn’t stop, the driver said he was hoping that pursuing officers would quit following him.

The sad thing is, this guy may actually be telling the truth and assuming that its ok to run from police when your cat is sick.

Ok. I know I have a cat obsession this week… but I just have to put up a photo from I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER? on here!

Apparently, the website’s name is based off an internet forum spoof and this website. But who cares? It’s funny.

I give you: Buddah Cat.

I’m an avid eater of all things fruity and sweet. My mother brought up my sister and I on a wide variety of healthy fruits and vegetables, which of course we still love - especially during the summer time.

So, if anyone else out there likes to chomp down on a nice piece of watermelon like I do and is as unwieldy with a knife as I am, you’ll know it’s always a battle to cut and eat a nice slice of seedless watermelon.

That’s where the ingenious “How-to” wiki comes in. Who knew that by cutting off the top of the watermelon, standing it on end, and slicing along the dark strips on the outside of the watermelon, you’d get pieces with the seeds on the outside, making them easier to pick out?

More of a visual person? They’ve got photos too.

The thought of editing comments after one has posted on any of my blogs has never been an issue. There just hasn’t been a convenient feature on WordPress for it yet. However, that’s all changed. Thanks to my good friend, Robbie, I’ve found this nifty “WP Ajax Edit Comments” plugin.

Now, one must beg the question: Should I or shouldn’t I allow the luxury of editing comments after they’ve been posted to my readers? On one hand, ugly typos, bad grammar, and incorrectly referenced links could be removed. On the other side, readers could back down on a view-point after they’ve seen a particular reaction, or change their previous words altogether. Where would I be without the ridiculous flame wars of “WELL YOU CAN’T EVEN SPELL ‘THOUGH’ RIGHT SO THERE!”

What do you think?

I found this interesting blog today, “Europe String.” Their tag line is “Traveling Europe on a Budget.”

Europe String been running since April 2005, so there are quite a few posts. There are great tips on food, traveling, and even tips for excellent helicopter rides over Germany.

My favorite was the bit on Edinburgh to visit the Loch Ness monster… on a budget of course. If your a fan of the hype that surrounds the Loch Ness monster, then you may enjoy this website (the place at which I got the photo you see to your right of course!)
