So it's Christmas, and I was wondering what kind of loot everyone got? My family usually does presents on Christmas Eve, so I got A Kindle Touch A Mark Ecko Star Wars Storm Trooper hoodie Some T-Shirts (including one awesome one where the human in an evolutionary line up is facing the other way saying "Stop following me!" to the pre-humans and chimp lol) Candies/chocolates etc. A headlamp and a booklight, either of which are perfect for the non-backlit Kindle (booklight seems to clip on well) Assorted shower gels and such So pretty cool stuff. I'm excited to be able to read a ton of good books now, and put some manga on the Kindle. I may have to post some pictures later …

I'm surprised this thread hasn't been up yet. So, let's hear them. Whether you made them or already broke them. For myself I made the goal of finishing a rough draft of the novel I've been working on. Save up some money to fly home to AZ for a weekend Pay off all the debt I owe to various people. Make a real attempt to get back into school this fall.

Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop. It has a catchy ring to it I guess. Apparently this dude thinks so also. Ladies, meet Mr. Zopittybop-Bop-Bop. He's single, lists his favorite activities on Facebook as "standing", "walking", "thinking" and "diamond". He was recently arrested this past Thursday for a list of charges, none of which include a ridiculous sounding name. And yes, that's legally his real name as of October of last year.

If i had 8k just laying around I would def buy this lamp and use it to scare small children. It's made out of all recyable materials, in fact his teeth are obvious utensils. His tongue? A shovel. Way cool mr lamp.

From now on I shall have "Thoughts for Tuesday." Every Tuesday I will post some random thought. It'll be a question and I expect everyone to answer with a 6 page essay. No less, no more. This picture has nothing to do with the topic. I just think it's funny. Today's thought is. What would you do in the event of a naked girl avalanche?

...and painkillers are pretty awesome.

Peanut butter, jelly, and rain in my shoe.

Fiber was turned on today. :-)

I've been following it, have you? It's quiet around these parts. Is it old west, shit about to go down quiet? Or is it suburbia, shit never happens quiet?

So, I want to get my boys family some gifts for xmas. I know little to nothing about his two siblings. I do know his sister is a new nurse! (Hooray?) Would you consider this a lame xmas gift? Maybe I should pair it up with something else...

So I don't know if I ever told you guys, but Ash started going to a new school this year. Its only for sophmore- senior students, its called Vtec, here in Visalia, CA. The students can take college courses in a few select career paths. One being Veterinary, which Ash has always talked about. So thats what shes working towards. She starts her first college class at the city college tonight!! She does take some college classes actually at her school, but then she can take some at the main college too. And they don't all have to be in her career path, but this one is. She will have an AA in her veterinarians career by the time she graduates high school. Of course thats if sh…

No one had any interesting pranks pulled on them today, or notice any particularly entertaining ones online? My whole crew at work today had me convinced there was a manager conspiracy to get me fired. Really had me going for a bit, forgot what day it was. Plus a lot of our managers are jerks anyway so it wouldn't have surprised me.

Gaming gives Nori Fox's autistic son Gavin a way to grow and develop on his own. 48 million Xbox Live members. 48 million stories. Nori is a wonderful lady. I've known her (via the internet) for several years. She is also the world's greatest baker of fudge brownies. You can try and dispute that, but you'd be WRONG. I have tasted her fudge brownies and no one can match them. No one. Despite all the negative press Xbox is receiving right now, I am glad they are making videos like these. Someone needs to show the positive side of video gaming, and this for sure is a positive light being shown. Rock on, Gavin!

Oh Florida. You never cease to amaze. 70 year old retired Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Wald awoke around midnight on March 10th to the sound of moaning. Upon entering the living room he discovered 32 year old Walter Conley being quite randy with his 41 year old wife, Johnna Lynn Flowers directly on the floor of the room. Walter also happened to be an ex-boyfriend of Johnna. Rather than disturbing the carnal act, Ralph slipped into his bedroom to grab his .38 revolver, and returned. Ralph shot the man once in the stomach and once in the head, killing him instantly. Now here's the thing. The prosecuters attempted to portray ol' Ralph as a jealous husband who couldn'…

Explanation: Is this an alien? Probably not, but of all the animals on Earth, the tardigrade might be the best candidate. That's because tardigrades are known to be able to go for decades without food or water, to survive temperatures from near absolute zero to well above the boiling point of water, to survive pressures from near zero to well above that on ocean floors, and to survive direct exposure to dangerous radiations. The far-ranging survivability of these extremophiles was tested in 2011 outside an orbiting space shuttle. Tardigrades are so durable partly because they can repair their own DNA and reduce their body water content to a few percent. Some of these m…
