It wasn’t released until October, but I’m ready to declare Single Ladies the song of the summer. For proof, look no further than this video of a little girl dancing.
I saw this video originally the other week and thought someone should time out the little girl dancing to the actual video. The little girl does an amazing job!

Have you ever purchased an item because it was such a great deal, but then never worn it? I’m going through my closet today doing a little early spring cleaning, and I just found a shirt that was really really on sale when I bought it, but I just didn’t really like it, so I never wore it… so it seems as though it wasn’t such a great deal after all…
Worse, I have a shirt that I...

That boy is so bow-legged he couldn’t catch a pig
– My grandmother, Mama, talking about some one.
Apparently they used to catch pigs by getting it to run through their legs and you’d clinch your legs around it’s neck and hold it still. Or so I’m told.
People are more violently opposed to fur than leather because it’s easier to...

I got a 66.67%, which happens to be well above average. Thank you 2003 US citizenship test.
(The average score for all 2,508 Americans taking the following test was 49%; college educators scored 55%.)

I got a 69.7%, not bad when college educators only average 55%. What’s your score?

“Fingers Crossed” by Allison Weiss (me)
Wrote this at 5:00am last night / this morning. Just another simple folk song. Just trying to get a feeling out. You know.

While I think Allison is singing about a relationship, I felt this song expressed a little how I am feeling on my upcoming adventure.
I got my fingers crossed and my hopes are high. So I’ll try to...

Whoa Whoa Whoa, Killer!
– -Ben, this was his reaction to realizing I had killed one of his pieces in Backgammon! Not that it did me much good as he still won… but, it made me smile. :-) (via maryjkendall)
I’ve been teaching Mary how to play backgammon recently, and we are having a lot of fun being SUPER competitive!
Xmas in Frisko: SomaFM's wacky and eclectic... →
This is one of my favorite parts of the Christmas season. Soma.fm is an online radio station that has some really good stations and Xmas in Frisko is the best. Like the link says, it’s a really eclectic mix of holiday songs. Some of them can be offensive, but most of them are really good and a great way to listen to Christmas music without hearing the same 15 songs over and over. Take...

Conspiracy Theory
I know this will come off as a little crazy… but think about how this could all be not really that far off…
So yesterday some work friends and I went down to The Vortex for lunch. They have a great lunch and I was starving. I ate a big ‘ol burger, all my tater tots, my pickle, Maria’s pickle, and most of Jim’s tater tots. Afterwards I was full, but not that full. ...
Dear Facebook Friends,
There is a virus going around Facebook that is cleverly disguised as a YouTube Video. The way I understand it works, is that you get a private message saying something like “You look just awesome in this new movie”. It takes you to a YouTube looking site that says “You need to download the latest flash update”… which is really just a virus installer. Once it is...
