The real Calvin and Hobbes snowmen (scroll down). It’s too bad Bill Waterson hasn’t done any books in a few years. I always loved his stuff.
Edit: The full set of pictures can be found here if it’s still up.
I may host these on my own server and repost them sometime soon.

How exactly does one “discover” something like this?
I’m still trying to decide if this is real or not. Either way it’s a pretty sticky situation.
Another strange discovery. This one is kinda cool though.
Ashlee is having a tough time. Oh, wait. I don’t care. Apparently there’s an online petition demanding she stop singing. Yes, I signed it, along with almost 82,000 other people smart enough to know a hack when they see one. I almost feel bad for her. Almost.
They must not want to sell any pens.
Just a note: in the time it took me to write this post almost 200 people signed the “Stop Ashley Petition.” If you’d like to join in the fun, I’ve added the petition link to the sidebar click the link above.
Just when you think there’s nothing good to be found on the internet…
It’s a Wonderful Life in 30 seconds, re-enacted by bunnies
This is just too funny. Well it used to be.
…with projects, finals, Christmas shopping, birthday shopping, wrapping presents, and done going out into the craziness that is the world in the week before Christmas.
A recap of the last few days: got to see the Appalachian Christmas Quartet for the second time. Still awesome. I’ve spent way more than I anticipated for Christmas, but then again, what else is savings for? My mom’s birthday was yesterday, and we saw Spanglish, then had a nice meal at Scotch & Sirloin last night. Things have been crazy, yet at the same time the thought of having absolutely nothing school related makes everything very relaxing.
I leave you by describing one of the best laughs I’ve had in a very long. Here’s how it went:
Obviously joking: “I think when I grow up I’m going to open a restaurant called ‘Flaccio’s’.” (flatch-ee-o)
What I (and my parents) heard was “Felaccio’s” (fuh-latch-ee-o). I burst out laughing.
“It would be like an Italian eatery.”
At this point things are only getting worse and I don’t think she even realized what we thought she had said. By the time the difference between “flatulence” and “fellatio” was explained, it didn’t matter because I just couldn’t stop laughing.
The moral of the story: if you ever come across a place called Flaccio’s, steer clear my friend.
This song speaks for itself.

Tell me what’s wrong with society
When everywhere I look, I see
Young girls dying to be on TV
They won’t stop till they’ve reached their dreams
Diet pills, surgery
Photoshopped pictures in magazines
Telling them how they should be
It doesn’t make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on?
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something is wrong
I guess things are not how they used to be
There’s no more normal families
Parents act like enemies
Making kids feel like it’s World War III
No one cares, no one’s there
I guess we’re all just too damn busy
And money’s our first priority
It doesn’t make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on?
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Is everybody going crazy?
Tell me what’s wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Rich guys driving big SUVs
While kids are starving in the streets
No one cares
No one likes to share
I guess life’s unfair
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on?
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something, something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on?
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something is wrong
Guy: Is she drying off her lettuce? K______, what are you doing?
Girl: It’s too wet!
Guy: I’ve never heard that from a woman before…
Later…
Girl 2: It’s OK, K______, I like your wet lettuce.

I’ve had a pretty good weekend, despite K-State’s loss yesterday and the large amount of time I’ve spent at the desk. Here’s something that just capped everything off.
This one guy was a little disappointed with Apple’s special U2 version of the iPod, so he decided to design his own. You can own the Ashlee Simpson Karaoke Edition iPod today!*
I’m glad other people have that much time to devote to my entertainment.
*Not really. Damn.

Live on
Live it up today
This life’s your cup
So drink it up I say, yeah
Say it’s mine so give it all up to me now
And walk that line
Don’t let this go my friend
Proof that Ashlee Simpson has absolutely no talent, tact, or brains.
I forgot to “sing” on cue so I think I’ll do a stupid dance and then walk off stage.
Then I’ll blame it on my band and pray they don’t kill me for selling them out.
Edit: Simpson on lip-syncing:
“I’m totally against it and offended by it. I’m going to let my real talent show, not just stand there and dance around. Personally, I’d never lip-sync. It’s just not me.”
Wow, how sad.
Today’s warm fuzzy brought to you by Spamusement.
I’ve had some days like that recently. I’m really gonna need something like that to happen tomorrow after my first test.
Things you’d like to say at work but can’t. Except that I probably could because I’ve got an awesome job and no one really cares! Well, that’s not quite true, but close enough.
Seriously though, I can’t think of many jobs like mine. I get paid to sit at a desk and pay attention to people walking by, say hi, and basically do whatever I want (with a few limits). I can’t make a lot of noise. I can’t leave the desk unless the desk is on fire or I’m being threatened. I can’t play an instrument (damn!). I can’t host parties at the desk, although occasionally it happens anyway. One of the best things is having time to do homework (usually), and all I have to do is work on it at the desk and I get paid for it. I can’t complain. Although some of my raises were absorbed when they raised the minimum wage…
Speaking of work, my job responsibilities just got expanded. Most of you reading probably already know that I deliver mail as well as working desk shifts. It’s pretty fun because I get to know lots of names and where everyone lives. The only thing that kinda sucks is that I don’t always have a face to put with a name. Anyway, I like delivering mail, although forwarding all the shiat for people who don’t live here anymore can suck my balls, Mr. Garrison. Anyway, I am now the Strong Complex Mail Manager. Yeah, I know, it’s impressive. Considering I’ve basically been managing the mailroom since day one. The one thing I’m curious about is whether this new title comes with a pay raise…
I’m supposed to be having a discussion with my boss in about 30 minutes to talk about my new responsibilities. Or something. It should be exciting. I’ll be at work already. Or still.
Teh Jimini will mourn this day.
And I thought I was starting to feel old. I take it all back.
The rest of my day will probably be kinda busy. I’m hoping to go get a haircut when I get off work, then head out to the career fair for some schmoozing (how the hell do you spell that anyway?) with employers. After that I’ll be delivering more mail, but this time with a title! My early evening should be pretty open, and then later tonight there’s an ARH Gen Body meeting. I doubt there’s all that much on the agenda, so it shouldn’t be too bad.
Alright, need to call my parents to see about plans for Fall Break. I’m out.

It’s just a catchy tune. So catchy.
