Happy birthday to Zuul! the one who rules! Happy birthday dear Zuul! You're frackin' cool! (Note: Zuul may not actually rhyme with rule/cool) ...
People who aren't successful at something are always better at it than people who are.
Well?

Dear Daughter, Dresses that you wore for 5 minutes before changing your mind and wearing something else do not belong in the laundry basket. They belong on a hanger. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Love, Your mother.
It's the end of November and it seems that everyone has switched into christmas mode. The weather has stopped being so variable and has settled into clear nights and crisp, frosty mornings. No more heatwaves or snow drifts and somehow everyone seems...
Ok, so who gets an advent calendar to count down to Christmas? Do you get the simple cards ones or the ones with chocolate or other goodies behind? For those with families, does everyone take a turn, or is someone always the first to open each...
My family. Almost all of us are together today (my pregnant niece managed to make it at the last minute, thrilling us to no end) and we have all of our family traditions playing out. It's incredibly reassuring and pleasing to have things stay the...
HE was once Ireland's richest man, with a fortune of €4.7bn, before his huge gamble on Anglo Irish Bank shares toppled him into bankruptcy. But for some in his heartland on the Cavan/Fermanagh border, the downfall of Sean Quinn has more to do with...
You heard me (uh, read me.) Draw a chicken, in pencil, crayon, marker, MS Paint, blood, whatever, and post it here. Why chickens? I like chickens. They're hilarious. They look funny, they make funny noises, and they're dumber than a bag of...
Mostly, I just want to pad my post count, and I'm not creative enough to do it without help! Ask me stuff about me, or random stuff I might or might not know. It doesn't matter! Just, give me stuff to answer. :dumbo:
Monkeys swimming without twisting. How much? Not everything!
I'm not sure how well known this is but a friend just showed me it. It's lovely. http://primaxstudio.com/stuff/scale_of_universe/
They have just released a list of the top 10 worst passwords that people still use. The list as follows is password 123456 12345678 qwerty abc123 monkey
Given all the troubles in Europe, instead of bailing certain countries out, the ECB have spent Europe's hard earned money on a new game where you get to control the European economy and try to ensure its stability. Economia I wonder if you do...
The fashion choice for the last 20 years or so for the APEC meeting of world leaders has been to wear the local dress. This has been the case since Bill Clinton dressed everyone in Leather Jackets and so the tradition continued through ponchos and...
Come on, everyone has one...a simple thing that you've tried to learn, but just can't. Mine is that two-fingered piercing whistle. My brother can do one that could split your eardrum, and he tried and tried to teach me, but I just can't get it. ...
Always one on the British calendar and yet it is one of the few dates that has no religious significance behind it. The other holidays and festivals all really appear to have come a religious source at some point and are merely carried on in some...
I just saw this tonight and my jaw dropped. Absolutely incredible costume. You have to watch the video for the full effect. Anyone see any other incredible costumes out there?
So, at about 6:00 this morning, I hear Fiona barking softly. Fiona really never barks inside the house, so I went out to correct her and then take her out to pee. As I let her out of her kennel, I hear a disembodied voice muttering. I look around...
How palindromic, even if you do put the month before the day. :p
My husband is about one day's work away from being finished remodeling our downstairs bathroom. It was a rather worn-out room, last remodeled in the 80s, and he gutted it to the rafters, ran new pipes and electric, put in the drywall and the floor...
Bonfires in Autumn have been around for centuries, but 5th November has an extra special meaning for those in Britain. Guy Fawkes Night is seen as one groups attempt to blow up Parliament and so restore power to the King. I always wondered when...
The bartender says "We don't allow faster than light neutrinos in here." A faster than light neutrino walks into a bar.
I've got an obscene amount of work and no costume besides, so I'm not going out anywhere. However! I'm in a new town this year and it's a very tiny one at that (I could literally name each person here). The parents here generally take their kids...
This weekend had my favourite day of the year. Yes, in some ways it is even better than a birthday. It's when the clocks go back from BST to GMT. An extra hour which requires no extra reason to allow you to sleep in while its dark. Bliss. Which...
Any plans?
Feed my profound nostalgia!! The smell of leaves The smell of burning leaves Fresh apple cider and donuts Pumpkin, and all the tasty things you can make from it
It seems to be a side effect of the days getting shorter that they have started to roll into each other. A month or so, it used to be light when I left for work each morning. Now dawn has not yet broken and I leave each morning into cold crisp air...
When something excites you, pee.
It seems that nowadays there's an app for everything. Want to go out somewhere to eat, there's an app for that. Need check a book review out before you buy it, there's an app for that. Want to catch your wife out having an affair, there's an app for...
The ads are everywhere and they have the courses at my local library, so I can even do them for free. Has anyone tried it, and does it really work as well as they say?
The world is constantly a rush to get things done in order to have a bit of free time in which we fall asleep from having exhausted ourselves doing everything that needed to be done. It's neverending isn't it, there is always another task to...
Did one of you boogerbrains do this?! Coz I'm pretty sure the orange/black thing isn't my fault!! :mad:
A new picture caught off the coast of Cornwall is purporting to show a UFO. The indistinct photo was taken when there was nothing in the area claims the photographer. It looks as though there is an object falling from it as well. The image...
Its been a quiet week, watching the temperature fall as well as the leaves, Autumn is well and truly here, and watching the trees turn golden is a wonderful thing. But this leads to the cluttered garden covered in the leaves as they fall from the...
One of the dafter things I heard today was that Obama was going to build a wall between America and Canada because he was unhappy with the economic situation of all the canadians looking for work in the USA and causing problems. :dubious: :roll:...
Its surprising just how much history can be around and yet can lie completely unnoticed by all and sundry. I went to a local history talk the other night on one of the local features now being slowly demolished, just out of curiousity as it is an...
Lots of fun news coming out of the f8 conference from Facebook. So, it's now going to track all your usage across the web and for anyone using the Spotify music streaming service, you now have to have a Facebook account to use it. Yup -...
It all started with one baseball and now with 22,894 coats of paint later, it's huge weighing over 1,500kg. This is one home project that just kept going.
I'm an editor for a small publisher. Since it's small, I end up wearing a lot of hats and getting odd jobs to keep things running. Today, I went through my email, answered some questions from authors, and sent acknowledgments that I had received a...
This one sounds like a big one. I didn't think New York got hurricanes but it appears it will go that far. To anyone affected: stay safe.
It seems that Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has decided he doesn't like his autobiography. This is despite being paid a large advance to write it. Apparently it has too many personal details in and is not enough of the political tract he wanted...
No big deal, really, but it is fun to share. He took part in a protest march on Sunday that was covered fairly well by the Indonesian news media. Here's a link to some coverage - he's the blond boy, more or less in the middle: ...
This one managed to get past my filter: I'm so obsessed with loving you that it scares me to think what I would do if you don't care for me too. My heart is in this eCard I sent just for you. <a href="">Click here to see your...
