What lies beneath



Look closely (click on it for a close-up). I saw this on the Street Anatomy blog. If I ever came across someone that did this to their wife, I'd do a lot worse to them. It's a powerful ad. This is what I'll be doing in a few years hopefully (marketing, not vigilante justice).

Better (really) late than never

So my Best Buy giftcard finally came from American Express. Two months late, but I'm happy anyway. I'll be on my way to pick up a brand spankin' new Ipod Touch on Friday. I've been hoarding all my BB gift cards for this moment. Or as Lufthansa would say, "all for this one moment". Photos of the unboxing to come soon. I'm making a case for it out of an old game boy color. We'll see how that goes. I'm also sewing a case for it (yes I can sew). I'm pretty handy with my hands. Not quite so eloquent with them though. I'm in the mood for a family guy quote, so here you go:

Tom Tucker: A bit of breaking news. A local family is forced out of their home by ghosts. Who are they gonna call?
Diane Simmons (sighs): Ghostbusters, Tom.
Tom Tucker: No, Diane. Their insurance company. That's just stupid what you said.

Lois: Honey, what do you say we uh...christen these new sheets, huh?
Peter: Why Lois Griffin, you naughty girl.
Lois: Hehehe...that's me.
Peter: You dirty hustler.
Lois: Hehehehe...
Peter: You filthy, stinky prostitute.
Lois: Aha, ok I get it...
Peter: You foul, venereal disease carrying, street walking whore.
Lois: Alright, that's enough!

Lady(bug) in red

I found a lady bug fluttering around weakly in my room two nights ago. I have no idea how long it's been in there, but it looked like it was on its last leg. I couldn't bring myself to kill it, even though it was freaking me out flying around my desk and dropping down randomly. It was too cold to set it free, and I figured it would die soon if I let it outside anyway. So I captured it and put it into a water bottle that I made a bunch of slits in and had some water droplets on the side. I didn't know what ladybugs ate, so I went downstairs and picked leaves from the plants we have growing in the house. Someone has since informed me that ladybugs don't eat leaves. Well, I tried. It seemed stronger last night, but when I tried to set it free it wouldn't leave the bottle. We'll try again tonight. Pictures to come.

Some Family Guy quotes for you, my loyal reader (or maybe nobody, who knows):

Peter (after Lois tells him he's childish): "If I'm a child that means you're a pedophile, and I'll be damned if i'm going stand here and take this from a pervert."

Lois: Peter,why are we stopped?
Peter: Yeah, I'll have three cheeseburgers...
Lois: Peter for God's sakes she's havin' a baby!
Peter: Oh that's right...and a kid's meal... and uh,I, I guess I'll have fries...if I have fries is anyone else gonna have any? Cuz,uh I don't wanna be the only one eatin' them... I'll feel like a fatty.
