The fb....

Some folks like the fb (no, NOT fp), other folks do not. I'm not sure where I stand on this issue. Regardless, I found myself chuckling over these commentaries:

25 Things I Didn't Want to Know About You

JUST IN, Read All About It: FB is for Old Fogies, no joke, Time says it so it must be true....

Why Facebook Is for Old Fogies

Surf and Slither

Apparently, the venomous lionfish are invading the Keys. These frilly, non-native fish are chowing down on the locals (fish, that is) and the repercussions on the ecosystem could be disastrous. And to think, it all started with one kid's aquarium and a hurricane. Consider evacuating with your fish next time, kiddo.

In more animal related news, this bit about the ginormous, prehistoric snake was rather fascinating. It grew to 43 feet in length, had a diameter of 3 feet and was found in a coal mine in Colombia. It's scientific name, Titanoboa cerrejonensis, should translate into Terror of the Tropics (but, it doesn't). And just in case you are wondering, that's a present day python crawling over the vertebrae of his ancestral big brother, just to put the whole size thing into perspective for you.

Eeauuu...just had a chill...

There's a new cult in town...

And they require you to wear your bathrobe backwards...

But wait, there's more - an R-rated WTF version for creepy dads...

Did you say anyone....?

Apparently, these days ANYONE can raise chickens. Mother Earth News knows best...

And the pooping rainbows saga continues...

Cat get your tongue...

I was lucky enough to see Radiohead in Tampa on Tuesday at a sold out show. They ROCK. Thom Yorke ROCKS. They are simply PHENOMENAL. Here's some footage of them, taken by someone quite near the stage, playing 15 Step....

I get to see them again this year in Chicago at the Lollapalooza music festival. I'll have most definitely learned all the words to all the songs on their new album, In Rainbows, by that time. I'm really hoping to hear some Wolf At The Door (nothing like a little Flan in the Face)...so, Thom Yorke, if you are reading this...please work it into the playlist for me! Thanks man, much appreciated! ;)

Tootyshamos posted about it too - more videos plus some very interesting trivia (a fiat punto, who knew!). (Oh..and I'm not buying the height thing either - sounds a little padded to me ;)

I dun running...

Think back (way back for some of us ;) - do you remember those GI Joe Public Service Announcements that used to run during commercial breaks in between Saturday morning cartoons. The ones that told you not to touch downed power lines or play on frozen lakes (real applicable here in FL) or cook on the stove when your parents weren't at home. Well, I vaguely do and apparently some other folks out there CLEARLY do. In fact, they were so moved by them that they felt the need to *edit* them a bit, perhaps for a more present day application. Heh. I find them disturbing, yet hysterical nonetheless (what with the ridiculously crude language and the bizarre still face zoom-ins).

Warning: This it NOT safe for the little ears, you've been forewarned.

Pork Chop Sandwiches....

If you search on youtube for 'gi joe psa', you'll find a bunch more (maybe you'll even find your childhood favorite). My faves are Give Him the Stick, Cosby Kids Down to the River, and Blanco Nino. There's nothing like teaming nostalgia with highly inappropriate voice overs. ;)
