Some things should never be seen.

Friday, April 14th, 2006

So yesterday the DHL guy dropped off a package for our neighbor at our house, since our neighbor wasn’t home. Apparently he left a note on their door that we had the package. When noone had turned up by 8pm, Devon and I decided to bring the box over, so we could just get rid of it.

Our neighbor answered the door in his skivies, like it was the normal thing to do!!

Um.. EWW! I really dont need to see a grown man/stranger in his tighty whiteys. He shoulda taken the extra 10 seconds to throw on a robe, or pants. Really. We wouldn’t have minded waiting… Where’s the barfing smilie icon when you really need it?

Shudder. Yet another reason why I should never leave the house.

New Sucky Fish

Tuesday, April 11th, 2006

I got a new sucky Fish today. Its proper name is a Rubber Lip Pleco. He’s gonna eat lots of algae in my fish tank. My Gourami’s are super messy (in addition to eating their own young) so hopefully Mr. Sucky Fish will clean up after them.

Here’s the handsome looking fellow:

Snakes on a plane

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

So Samuel L. Jackson is doing a new movie. Its about terrorists setting snakes loose on a plane… The movie is creatively named “Snakes on a Plane” and has such solid lines like “There’s Motherf-ing snakes on the plane!”.

Apparently Samuel threatened to walk off the project if they changed the movie title.

Anyways. I’m definately going to the midnight opening of this future blockbuster. :) So check it out. It looks fabulous. :)

Employee statistics

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

This has been floating around the inter-web for a while, but its still amusing every time I see it…

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:
* 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
* 3 have done time for assault
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year…
Can you guess which organization this is?

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

In 2 weeks I will be in France staying at La Bastide de Moustiers. Possibly truffle hunting, shopping or taking a cooking class. The lemur will probably be drinking heavily and hitting on staff at la Bastide :)

Woohoo. Wasting time on a site with tons of 90′s flash animation. :)
