I like how Alexis’s favorite food was created to promote Campbell’s soup. And how Rudolph almost didn’t exist because people used to associate red noses with alcoholics.
Top 10 Weirdest Things in Space : Discovery Space... →
All of this is very interesting, and I agree with #1 and #2 very much. I have been thinking about the universe and how ridiculous it is a lot lately. And how we will probably never understand how it came to be or what is out there.

Snowed in can’t do anything, so I’m wandering the web…some pretty fun pictures in this link.
Fat Possum Records →
Best record label name EVER. Although it would be better if it were “Dead Possum Records,” since that’s the only good way for possums to be.

My playwriting teacher liked to ramble on about things that had nothing to do with the class, and one day she said there are studies that show that if you do certain routine activities a different way once in a while (like brushing your teeth left-handed, which is very difficult, I have tried it), it will make you less likely to develop Alzheimer’s.
So this afternoon I am typing only with...

Buzzkill. Apparently only two percent of people will consider dating me because of my profession.

This makes me sad. I really like Will Smith. I don’t think I could if he were a Scientologist.

Oh. My. God. This poor dog. Though I do like the one of her as a camel. (Props to Paul for finding this.)
The Worst ‘Roommate Wanted’ Ad EVER! →

This sort of reminds me of my freshman year in college. My roommate: - was a very conservative republican - listened to classic rock and only classic rock - needed complete darkness to sleep, even had to duct tape the cracks of the curtains and would shut my monitor off when i stepped out of the room. - called his mom everyday, to ask for advise on how to handle college life....

I can’t believe how quickly such terrible things can happen. Rest in peace, Catherine.
oh, holiday parties.
Names/identifying information have been removed…
Also, FYI, this is not an e-mail I received from anyone at my company. I can’t imagine what would happen if someone sent this out to everyone here. (Especially since we didn’t really have a holiday party.)

Good...

:( This was the only presidential pet I ever really cared about. I almost named Nermal after him. And now he is apparently dying. Very sad!

Its tagline? “Everything should taste like bacon.” You know, I kind of agree.
ISO: Roommates →
My old roommate, Gen, started this blog as a way of sharing all the wacky e-mails from people who want to live in my old room. WOW. My fave so far is the “Olympian.”
