A bit of news that I enjoyed recently. The Republican VP nominee (you may have heard of her in the news recently. I think she was briefly mentioned) was described as a young woman from Alaska. But, but,... hey! she's my age! I'm officially young again.

Then again, contrasted to John McCain, dinosaurs look young.

I fell in love with Obama again this week. After his off-the-cuff joke about putting lipstick on a pig, and the Republicans and media trying to make it an issue, Obama's basic response was "Oh, grow up!"
It seems to me that the Republicans were the ones making the connection between Palin and the pig, not Obama. Reminds me of another old joke. A man accused of sexual assault was being interviewed by a psychiatrist. The shrink wanted to know how deeply seated the mans sexual problems were. He showed the man a drawing of two horizontal lines and asked the man what it looked like to him. "Two people having sex laying down." The shrink showed him a drawing with two vertical lines, and asked what it looked like. "Two people having sex standing up," the man replied. Curious, the Shrink then showed him a drawing of two diagonal lines, and asked the same question. "Two people leaning against a wall, having sex." "Hmm," said the Shrink, "I think your sexual problems are VERY deeply ingrained in your psyche." "What do you mean, MY problems," the guy asked. "You're the one showing the dirty pictures!"


I came across this picture today in a Tampa Bay newspaper story. Somebody invented a way to keep co-workers from stealing your lunch from the office fridge. It's a sandwich baggie that's been dyed to resemble bread mold.
I LOVE it.
But I have my own fridge at work.
