Squish Faces.

Has everyone already seen this? Called Morphthing. You can combine two photos i think.

Premature Obituaries

Glad there is an entire Wikipedia Article on this. A list of premature obituaries that have accidentally been published or something like that when the person hasn't actually died yet.

I guess the news people are supposed to ready with 95% of the story in case that person dies and then fill in the rest if it happens.

Here's the Article.

Miniman

I just love Legos. Period. I don't really know anything about this site.

Go Miniman Go

The Spoon Sisters


I think it's a cool website- SpoonSisters.com.And this is a great invention or at least a funny one. Dinner napkins with a tie haha if only they sold some that matched my grandma's sweaters.

Why I love people who write ads

So for awhile there I made those annoying side bar ads that said" Hey this shredder is 50% off, so buy it" but never anything as great as this.

This is the article:

-Famous Person

Loved the book. Read the blog

Did you know there is a Freaknomics Blog? I didn't. And sometimes the posts are really lame but sometimes they're pretty interesting.

This is the blog.

And I loved this article:

Voting is Dangerous For Your Health

They have some good reads

Listen to their music

So these two guys started an Ad Agency and you can listen to/choose the music they listen to at their office. I think there is some good stuff in there and sometimes it's a good switch from Pandora.

Stop being so 18.

Last post of the night. I was standing in line at Barnes and Noble today and overheard a gem of a statement. The line was starting to get longer and an old guy turned to an old lady (the same old lady that had yelled from the escalator to the customer service girl to not go anywhere because she needed help) and said wow the line sure is getting long. Another old guy chimes in, that's ok it's good to see a lot of people reading (I agree.) He doesn't stop there. Then makes the statement, well at least they are all democrats because the republicans sure wouldn't be here. What? Continues to make unvalidated remarks about the republican policy regarding libraries. Then all the people in the line chime in, especially the old lady, "well I'm voting democrat." Well good for you. Why did I feel like I was surrounded by 18 yr olds trying to fit in? And how do people have the guts to make such ridiculous statements when everyone else can hear? Wow wow wow

Oldie but Goodie. Wheelchair goes for a ride.

Just remembered this one. I believe I was in Africa when I read this story and I laughed for a million years. Thanks to Dave Pratt for that forward.

I'm just real glad this guy is okay, otherwise it wouldn't be a funny story. So the guy is crossing the street in his wheelchair and a semi truck pulls up, doesn't see him, starts going and the wheelchair gets stuck in the grill. Takes him for a long ride. Love it.

Here's the article.

Cop eats too many brownies

Or at least he said so. I heard this on the radio the other day and I couldn't stop laughing. Cop steals pot, bakes it into brownies with his wife, calls 911 and says he's dying. Check it out.

Here's the link to the article.

Here's the link to the call.

The Evil Look

I know I know there are way too many funny baby videos on youtube. I thought this one was unique and I laughed so sue me.

Great Baby.

Love Made Visible. My New Favorite Phrase.

This ones for the girls. Or guys, whatever. I can't remember how I found this blog but the name of it alone takes the cake. What a great phrase. Love made visible. Love it love it. Not really sure of the purpose of the blog but they posted a great pic from the JCrew catalog and I was hooked.

Love Made Visible

Drawing is now magical

Check out GE's site Imagination Cubed. You can draw stuff, write stuff, save it, send it, etc etc
I'm a sucker for this crap and to be honest, I actually used it at work the other day because I was too lazy to go over and explain to someone the layout I wanted. I drew it, took a screenshot of it (love you Macs) and sent it over.

Monkey Service

I stole this one from Bobby Housley. Great find Bobby. Monkeys as waiters? Yes yes in Japan.

Watch it.


Not sure what to say about it. Unsanitary, weird, cruel? Funny, entertaining? Eh don't know

Smile for Accomplishments


I read this great newsletter from AsktheBuilder.com and well the builder tends to go off on personal tangents before he addresses some home improvement ideas. Sometimes he'll talk about moving to New Hampshire while his wife and daughter live in Ohio. This time, he discussed his latest visit to the hardware store where he ran into this old couple he knew. Long story short, he told them he had a website! And guess what? The old guy had one too. Fancy that.

Check this website.

Ok at first I laughed really hard. But he's the oldest person to ever swim the english channel! He has his own website! Doesn't that make you smile?

Worst Shoes I've Ever Seen-Recently.

Just get a big faceful of these shoes. Opened my email today in shock. Since when did a Mother Goose boot look good in a heel? Since never! Sorry if someone owns these but if you do, you have to prove why they are great.

Cute Overload

I'm sorry but this website has been a work favorite for months. We all claim this site is so ridiculous but one by one we would all find a picture that made us say "ahhh so cute." I'll admit I have done that multiple times but I would like to say I found something extremely ridiculous on there.

Quacks and Racks as a Category. Check it out. It's not scandalous..at least I didn't see anything scandalous it is just utterly ridiculous (I realize I have already used that word 3 times.) I'll post more on this later. Just wanted to get the word out and get them some free traffic.
CUTE OVERLOAD.COM Oh and another thing. It really is amazing how this site becomes a part of your life. Sometimes I truly experience cute overload. The sunset is too pretty, the dress is too cute, and all you can say is wow I am having a cuteoverload!!


Kill VistaPrint

Maybe this is only entertaining to me because well I subscribe to emails, read emails, create emails, and send emails all day long but I would like to honestly second this guy's opinion. VistaPrint loves their emails and they all suck. I love cheap crap but I'm not a sucker for cheap marketing. Sorry VistaPrint, this guy gave you some bad PR

Heard of this? Mail Goggles.

So Google is great, we all know. Heard of Mail Goggles? It's a new invention for all those late night drinkers who have a tendency to email old girlfriends, ask them to get back together and regret it the next morning.

From now on, at certain times (I think Friday and Saturday nights for sure) you have to answer some math questions before you can send your email. You can also set up custom times for when you are particularly vulnerable.

While discussing this at work, my co-worker mentioned that if you really wanted to send that email you would just pull out a calculator and go right past it. Check the article

Either way I'm glad this is legit unlike their april fool's joke that got me real good. Here it is.

Google is real great, sorry to say it again. Here's a compilation of their goodies
