Said
"Start every day off with a smile and get it over with."
~W.C. Fields
"Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made on the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well-warmed, and well-fed."
~Herman Melville

Katbot
Check out KATBOT.I'm not quite sure what this Funny Garbage site is all about, but the design and execution is pretty interesting. Hello Kitty lovers will like this site a lot, I do believe.

Mac = 4.5% market share?
Jeez, if it's that low, I won't even factor Macs into my browser/os compatibility fixes. Whatever Mac-lovers say (I'm not one of them), there's no getting around the fact that it's extremely difficult to run Macs on a network - I hear my mac-eater colleagues screaming about it every single day. If that's how Mac wants you to "Think different," no thank you.Anyway, this article posits Apple is not long for this world as long as it stays with their current chip platform. Schools don't even want Macs any more because they ARE so hard to network. Business 2.0 - Web Article - Trouble at Apple's Core
Very nice Robby B.
I link to this simply because I really like the design. It's different, effective, and I didn't even mind having to figure out that the scrollbar is there, just invisible (as opposed to a stylesheet screwup). R o b b y B . c o m My compliments to the designer.The Forwarders 12-Step “Program”
Forwarded to me from a friend in Canada, who got it forwarded from her friend in Massachusetts and where it was before that or who wrote it, I have no idea:NOW EVERYONE SAY IT WITH ME ...
1. "I will NOT get bad luck, lose my friends, or lose my mailing lists if I DON'T forward an email!
2. I will NOT hear any music or see a taco dog, if I DO forward an e-mail.
3. Bill Gates is NOT going to send me money, Victoria Secret doesn't know anything about a gift certificate they're supposed to send me and Ford will not give me a 50% discount even if I forward my e-mail to more than 50 people!
4. I will NEVER receive gift certificates, coupons, or freebies from Coca Cola, Cracker Barrel, Old Navy, or anyone else if I send an e-mail to 10 people.
5. I will NEVER see a pop-up window if I forward an e-mail ... NEVER!!!!
6. My phone will not MYSTERIOUSLY ring after I forward an e-mail.
7. There is NO SUCH THING as an e-mail tracking program, and I am not STUPID enough to think that someone will send me $100 for forwarding an e-mail to 10 or more people!
8. There is no kid with cancer through the Make-a-Wish program in England collecting anything! He did when he was 7 years old. He is now cancer free and 35 years old and DOESN'T WANT ANY MORE POST CARDS, CALLING CARDS, or GET-WELL CARDS.
9. The government does not have a bill in Congress called 901B (or whatever they named it this week) that, if passed, will enable them to charge us 5 cents for every e-mail we send.
10. There will be NO cool dancing, singing, waving, colorful flowers characters, or program that I will receive immediately after I forward an e-mail.
11. The American Red Cross will NOT donate 50 cents to a certain individual dying of some never-heard-of disease for every e-mail address I send this to. The American Red Cross RECEIVES donations.
12. And finally, I WILL NOT let others guilt me into sending things by telling me I am not their friend or that I don't believe in Jesus Christ. If God wants to send me a message, I believe the bushes in my yard will burn before He picks up a PC to pass it on!
Instead of forwarding stuff - why can't people just blog things?

Well, if you’re going to renege
on paying off your student loans, the first thing I would do is NOT work for the government. Boston Globe Online / Metro | Region / Grad accused of faking death to avoid loans.Hmm, I always wondered what those Army buildings were for in Natick. I wonder what kind of research they do there?
A Real Urban Legend
BioMedNet posted a review of Typhoid Mary : An Urban Historical by Anthony Bourdain: Magazine: Beagle Review. (Registration is free).Her real name was Mary Mallon, and not much is known about her other than typhoid appeared wherever she was employed as a cook. An excerpt:
"Mary was angry at the unexpected site [sic] of me, and although I recited some well-considered speeches committed to memory in advance to make sure she understood what I meant, and that I meant her no harm, I could do nothing with her.
"She denied she knew anything about typhoid. She had never had it nor produced it. There had been no more typhoid where she was than anywhere else.
"There was typhoid fever everywhere. Nobody had ever accused her of causing any cases or had any occasion to do so. Such a thing had never been heard of."

Colors
This is a nicely designed site, despite the truly annoying music, the typos, the random spelling variations (is it "color" or "colour"? Doesn't matter - there's both here). The content is rather silly, from Paul Goldin, Psychologist (whomever the hell that is and why would I even care?) - another of those personality test things. A good way to waste five minutes. ColorgenicsPlaying with the camera
'Twas a snowy evening. Not much to do 'cept watch bad tv, eat dinner, take pictures of the creatures.
Twitch tries to kill the laser light.
But the light is gone ...
Hey, hey - there's this noise, see, and, well, it's dark ...
pleaseletmein ... it's me, Ginger, hey, hurry!
