I love this picture. I hope to visit it in person some day!

Give Me Christmas with Yolanda Adams

or not! Music companies are unloading crappy CDs on our libraries and schools. I like the administrator who says:

"One person's crap is another person's 'Let's get a groove on."

At the bottom of the article, they have an example of what one library is getting. How righteous to be getting 68 copies of the same Barry White album! OMG.

Bottle Opening Sandal

I think the consensus among geeks is that the Reef Bottle Opening Sandals are clearly retarded. One friend pointed out that bar restrooms have disgusting floors. You're not going to want to open anything using the bottom of your shoe and then put it to your lips. Second, another friend pointed out you could step in dog doo or some other unsavory stuff too. Third, they're just retarded looking. They get big points for getting a lot of attention.

Mystery of German exploding toads

Sounds like a spooky camp site story... the Mystery of German exploding toads. Proof that truth is stranger than fiction - or even science fiction in this case.

Too Patriotic

Someone else said it best when they asked... "Is there such a thing as too patriotic?" View this video and decide for yourself.

I like how it makes reference to not having authorized spoofs of it. I can't imagine that anyone watched it and wanted to spoof it. Highlights for me were the American flag wafting in as the ocean, the transformation into Mount Rushmore and the part with the bandana that looks like he's blowing his nose.

Heart's in the right place, but oh boy...

And the whole part about his pole vaulting and being a Star Trek trading card were pretty hilarious.

Best KISS Lyrics Ever

I accidentally found the Google group related to everything from the band KISS. I particulary like the thread about "great" KISS lyrics. Best excerpts:

"Stanley the parrot....just doesn't know which....way is down."

"I'm gonna dance all over [smitty's] face..."

And this CAN'T be a lyric:

"That what wesley cries when genie podgers his loose ass. "

At least some fans can admit the cheesiness that is KISS:

>but stuff like "she's a dancer, a romancer, i'm a carpricorn and she's a

>cringe!

Oh lord, help us.
