SNL was a mediocre show at best




Why is it that a couple times a month there has to be a show with people from SNL talking about what a good show and how ground breaking it is. The truth is that in it's day it wasn't very funny and now it's not funny at all. They take one little joke that's not funny and drag it out for about 5 minutes too long. I happened to turn it on this weekend and they were making fun of some sort of techno music show. First off, you're about 10 years too late on this and secondly, techno only appeals to about .02 % of the population. It's horrible and should be taken off the air.

Mutter Museum


If you're ever visiting Philadelphia I would recommend checking out the Mutter Museum. It is filled with medical oddities. It's really scary the types of diseases that existed 100 years ago and still exist in some parts of the world. I went last November. It was a little crowded so I didn't get to look as much as I wanted to. I just remember things in jars.

Switch Zoo


Click here to make weird animals. YEAH!

(Some)Italian Americans are ignorant.

Let me begin by saying that I'm part Italian and I have grown up around many Italian Americans. I also took some Italian in college. Even from a young age, I never understood why people would say words like mootz-a-rell instead of mozzarella, pro-shoot instead of prosciutto, spi-gget instead of spaghetti, mani-goat instead of manicotti, guv-a-deel instead than cavatelli, etc... I thought maybe that is how they said it in the old country. Well, what I've learned is that most American's of Italian descent don't know shit about Italy. In Italy they don't say any of these words this way. It's a stupid bastardized way that NYC and New Jersey Italian Immigrants began to speak because they couldn't write words correctly. Basically, it's an affectation. It's much like Ebonics. People can say words however they want, but I hate how people who mispronounce these words think that they are so "cultured" and are saying them correctly. Don't explain to me how I need to understand that people from certain parts of Italy speak that way, when what you really mean is people from certain parts of New Jersey do.

I call this one the unicorn

I don't really know what this site is, but it's gross.
Bill, remember when we were watching ghetto Charlie Brown and wondered where they were getting all those weird slang terms from? I think they looked on this site. (don't worry, it's only cartoon drawings, which makes it better right?)

The Brothers Solomon


This could be really funny or sort of dumb.

Someone finally calls Bono out !


A Dutch artist, Frans Smeets, has created a sculpture of the U2 frontman, in Jesus garb with a Nike sign and Emporio Armani sunglasses. At his feet lies a dying African child in which he is totally disinterested.

The controversial work is entitled “Jesus Loves You Too.”

This is not my picture or cat. I found it on the internet(what a wonderful thing!) My cat, Symon, decided to projectile vomit this morning all over the rug. How adorable. He's been hiding ever since. I feel bad for Symon because he can't help his vomiting and I know that he gets really embarrassed whenever he does it. I've asked the vet about this and they just seem to tell me that's what cat's do sometimes. I really am beginning to think doctors are completely useless, for animals and for people. I think of all the money that my insurance company has spent on me going to the doctor and they have seen me for a total of 5 minutes and have not answered any of my questions or given me any advice. Anything I've learned has been from books or the internet. I'm pretty sure I could "pretend" to be a doctor.

SUPERBAD

Don't cry over broken cake.


Do you ever have those days/weeks/months were nothing seems to go right? Nothing too bad happens but it's just an annoyance, enough to put you in a bad mood. I've had this type of annoyance for about the past three months. Cake seems to really put me over the edge. On my birthday my cake layers completely slipped off and turned into a delicious lump. People who witnessed this(thank god not many) know how I reacted. Today I spent all this time baking a coffee cake and when I went to turn it over it broke into pieces. I may be a little more sensitive about these things due to the whole pregnancy thing but it really seems like it's just one thing after another lately.

Tugboat roundup!


Click here to vote for my dad's tugboat, Tug Urger.

The Stockade is getting real seedy like.


Over the past few months I have seen the Stockade turn from having just a few "derelict" people to being over run by scumbags, drunks, crack heads and prostitutes. I'm getting really sick of driving down my street and seeing crack heads walking in the street, trying to talk to me, giving me the rape eyes, etc... It also makes me sick that some crack head stole my suitcase. I'm not a violent person but if I ever see a crack head wearing my clothes I may be inclined to run them down. Also, I'm sick of people coming through or gate and just walking into our backyard. We took a walk down to the river the other day at around 7pm and saw some dirt bags smoking pot in their car. Not to mention all the "gay sex" that goes down by the river. As much as I like the old and historic part of the Stockade I think I'll feel much safer away from here.

Music and Lyrics wasn't a bad movie.


There, I said it. (although, it wasn't necessarily good either)

Poor Little Lamb

This makes me sad.

CANBERRA (Reuters) - A lamb with seven legs was born in New Zealand but so badly deformed that it was likely to be destroyed, a local newspaper reported.

The lamb was born with an extra set of front legs and three back legs, the Ashburton Guardian newspaper, at Ashburton on the South Island, reported.

Farmer Dave Callaghan found the lamb in his field. Two of its legs hung useless behind the forelegs. The lamb walked using its two forelegs and three healthy hind legs.

Veterinarian Steve Williams said the lamb was also hermaphrodite, and was missing a part of its bowel so was unable to pass faeces.

He said it was this latter problem, rather than the fact it had seven legs, that meant it would probably have to be destroyed.

"It's quite a happy bright wee lamb, he's just slowly going downhill really," Williams said. "To keep it alive is probably inhumane really."
