Man, I must be uber boring. No one comments anymore. *chuckles* Not to mention... All my friends are MIA from YIM (leaving me very little to do in the mornings at my temp job). The boards are slow and dull. And, I've not gotten any mail in awhile. Blah. I can't believe no one even appreciated my shameless birthday plugs or my really, really silly pictures of a stuffed mickey all over magic kingdom. Humph.

Um, ok, I know. You guys will be powerless to resist my tabby cat! I'll pimp her out for the "awwww" factor!




*crickets*


Damn you guys are hard to please. I was sure that the overly cute picture of Mika would do it. Hrm. How about a really bad joke? Why did the 101 dalmations stop playing tag? They kept getting spotted!


*even the crickets have gone home*


Bah. It's 11:30am on a Tuesday. It's damned boring and I can't be entertaining all the time. Sometimes I'm downright dull. What to do when I can't think of any original content myself...? Oh, I know, steal some from someone else!

News of the Weird (and yeah, it's all real)

David Boyd announced as a candidate for the Canadian Parliament, from Halifax, on a platform of marriage reform, specifically to permit same-sex, group and human-android marriages (March).

Now I know people who LOVE their computer, but damn, that's going just a bit to far.

Least competent criminals
A pickup-truck driver was arrested by an Indiana state trooper because its cargo was blocking sight of the license plate in the back window; on closer inspection, the cargo was revealed to be 900 pounds of marijuana (Indianapolis, March).

One has to wonder how much of tat was smoked by said driver before going out on the road like that!

And in Lafayette, Ind., Joshua K. Kochell, 27, was charged with robbing two gas stations; his probation officer was able to track his whereabouts precisely that evening because Kochell was still wearing an electronic monitor from a 2001 sentence for theft (March).

Just too dumb for words.

A photo technician at a CVS drugstore in Advance, N.C., notified police in March when someone dropped off film showing two male employees of a local Wendy?s, in bathing suits, frolicking in the sink where the restaurant?s pots and pans are washed.

Just wrong. (And eww!)

And last but not least, from the freaks file...

From a March Boston Globe interview with Morgan Lee, newly crowned Miss Gothic Massachusetts: (asked how she would describe Goth) "It's really a style and a way of thinking. Basically, you?re miserable all the time. (W)e just see the darker side that other people tend to ignore. The most interesting people are always the saddest." (Asked what her boyfriend thinks of her): "He's very proud of me. (H)e's not a very descript person, kind of like an amoeba, but very cultured."

The sad thing is that I've seen people like this. A lot.

Alright, well. I hope I've given some reason to comment now...I mean surely, something was terrible, interesting or just down-right desperate enough to warrent some feedback? *laughs* Come on guys, I'm bored here, help a sister out! ;) Ciao.
