Um... WHAT?!?!

Something else from somewhere else on the internet

OFFER: 19" CRT Monitor

Up for grabs: Dell M990 19" CRT monitor. Documentation can still be found (fascinatingly enough) on Dell’s website.

This 46-pound marvel of modern technology can be yours just for dragging it out of my 3rd floor apartment!

I'll even throw in an opened box of Wheat Thins. They're a little too salty for my taste.

I forgot to mention:

I hate plastic-coated paper clips. They infuriate me. I'm not kidding.

What could possibly be better than barenaked ladies with a million dollars in bathroom?

Barenaked Ladies singing "$1,000,000" in a bathroom...

Dear Santa...

One cat-butt towel holder, please! Perpetualkid.com

Tripod: Gonna Make You Happy

Free! Kingsford "odorless" charcoal starter

Free: one quart of Kingsford odorless charcoal starter fluid. Well actually... I used about an ounce of it, so I guess it's really just 31 ounces. Why they don't sell smaller quantities for the ritualistic destruction of not-so-flammable relationship memorabilia is beyond me.

If you'd like to get your hands on this prize, send me an email with an amusing anecdote involving some sort of flame, fire, accelerant, cooking mishap, candle wax gone wild, whatever. It doesn't have to be true - just make me laugh.

I'll give y'all until the end of June (11:59:59 pm Monday night) to submit an entry. If you REALLY want the charcoal starter before Tuesday, just say so - I'm also a sucker for a good pity plea.

Fun Little Diversion

This will take your mind off more important things for a minute or two (or ten if you are an over-achiever):

HowManyOfMe.com

There are 4 people with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name?

Stats about my first name:
- There are 1,207,776 people in the U.S. with the first name Susan.
- Statistically the 25th most popular first name.
- This one's a real shocker: More than 99.9 percent of people with the first name Susan are female. Are you SERIOUS?

Stats about my last name:
- Ooops... almost revealed too much! All I will say is that there are less than a thousand people in the U.S. with the same last name as moi.

Thanks, Amber!

WTF of the Day

I Can Has Cheezburger

In case you haven't visited I Can Has Cheezburger yet (even though it's listed on the right)...

The Chair-y Tree

Could someone please explain to me why in the heck someone would strap a wooden chair to a big oak tree? Am I missing something? Is this a research project? A social experiment? A student prank? I don't understand!


It's been up there for at least a month. You'd think that someone would have removed it by now if it weren't supposed to be there. So... does that mean that it IS supposed to be there? The mystery is driving me mad! Mad, I tell you! MAD!!!

The charm of rural living

I stopped in at Unnamed Pizza Joint last night to pick up dinner and there was a stack of fliers by the register that caught my eye. Actually, it was hard NOT to notice the stack of fliers - the stack looked like it was at least an entire ream of copier paper (a typical ream of paper contains 500 sheets).

My breakfast: frozen waffles; fake buttery spread; 100% pure, grade A, dark amber, organic maple syrup.
