There’s not much going on around here today. I’ve been stuck doing some chores that I’ve been putting off for as long as possible. These include scrubbing the kitchen backsplash tiles (the ones behind the stove, which are hopelessly splattered with grease), dragging the area rugs out to the backyard to beat the dust out [...]
I was just surfing BlogExplosion the other day when I noticed that I was getting .75 credits for every site I visited, instead of the usual .5. I think that’s great, because obviously it’s now even easier to rack up credits for reciprocal visits.

Wow, Michael Jackson’s death has turned into an all-out media circus! I seriously had no idea that it would be considered this big a deal by mainstream media.

It seems like we don’t even hear about as many incidents among professional athletes or Hollywood celebs. Governors, senators, representatives, and even presidents commit more than [...]
So I logged onto Twitter this afternoon, and all anyone seems to be talking about is some altercation that apparently occurred between Perez Hilton and Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas. Hilton posted on his Twitter that Will.i.am “assaulted” him, which prompted Will.i.am to create his own Twitter account to set the record straight. [...]
Call me a sap, but by the time I finished reading this story, I had tears in my eyes. It’s about a 10-year-old girl named Colby Curtain, who recently died of cancer. Her last wish was to see the new Disney Pixar movie Up. Her mother desperately wanted to make this happen, but Colby [...]
