Distractions: Summer's Gone But The Heat's Still Here Edition
Thursday August 23rd 2007

I am not ready for school to have started. I'm tired and out of sorts, getting up so early and having to be functional. But life marches on. And much like you, sometimes I need a break from the pace of life. So here the distractions:
- Farty pants. Nothing else needs to be said.
- Jimmy Justice, the most annoying man alive -- I don't care if he's doing his community service, he's gonna get punched in the face, and he'll deserve it.
- Mountain Dew Christmas tree
- A list of least religious countries
- Secret buildings you're not allowed to take pictures of -- but you're not allowed to know which buildings those are, unless you try to take a photography of them, and then you'll go to jail for trying to take a picture of them ... what?
- Pretty cool robotic arm developed by Festo Engineering (very much like I Robot); simulating muscle/tendon movement.
- The Coffee Kiss
- No wonder people are getting dumber, with shows like Yo! Gabba! Gabba! for toddlers
- Coming Out Insurance (I think my favorite thing might be the intro dialog)
- Toronto - Before and After (30 years of Tornto in before and after photographs)
- Shyness has been cured! -- but what if I just want to talk to people I don't know (not because I'm afraid or nervous, but I just don't want to waste my time and energy talking about the weather)?
- Kingda Ka -- tallest and fastest roller coaster (nope, no way, not ever gonna ride that)
- I have a hard time believing this"children's" book is real, but whoa -- I know it happens, but whoa ... not right
- An oldie, but a goodie; Our Family Photo Album
- Anyone else get an iPhone AT-T bill this big?
- Funny headlines
- Funny, distracting game of Flash basketball

More like, shyness can help me from avoiding all the things I'd not want to.

Wow; that's a confusing sentence, but I get it.....i really do =-)
I can't help myself when I go for walks with Sirius. I have this internal compulsion to be friendly and chatty with everyone I meet, even if I don't really want to!
