Too many things to do this morning with a sleepy head and a Scrooge like attitude, so in lieu of real content, you get my…self worth? I’m shocked and disappointed, I would have put the value closer to ONE BILLION DOLLARS. Oh well, you win some you loose some, it’s all just fun with 1’s and 0’s.

My blog is worth $14,113.50.
How much is your blog worth?

Bonus (questionable):

Galadriel

Possessing a rare combination of wisdom and humility, while serenely dominating your environment you selflessly use your powers to care for others.

Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.

I just love these little test thingies, they’re so odd and such an incredible waste of time. I’d like to see the boys put one together for “which professional cyclist are you”, or you could see the comments for the post yesterday on Muppets to find out which one of those you are…

OK I’m out.

Kissy boo!

You know those Zeno worshiping kids own/mfg Wise Installer? Troof. Makes for good times when you have to travel overseas, it’s embedded in your product and the country doesn’t allow for that (religious affiliation and all).

One of the many ways they fund their fantasy land, and it has the bonus of allowing countless hours of time to be wasted by people who are paid far too much to worry about such things.

Good shit.

‘Muppets’ May Return to Primetime TV — The Muppets could come back to primetime television with their own reality show. ABC has ordered a script and five episode outlines for “America’s Next Muppet,” in which viewers may join in choosing the newest member of the puppet family that includes Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy, a network spokeswoman said Tuesday. - Reuters

It’s a doofy premise but I don’t care…it’s The Muppets!!!!

What’s with half the “city riders” rolling around on bikes in skateboarding headgear?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m stoked they’re wearing helmets at all, but I can’t look at them and without thinking they lost their real helmets and had to go dig one out of a cardboard box in the garage labeled “Bones Brigade”.

Is it just me?

One should never be too old, too dignified or too proud to enjoy a playground.
