It’s the simple things in life we treasure that get us through those particular days.

If it weren’t for the slow loading rate of this website, I might have read all of them but I have things to do. There is my own list of women that I was surprised was not on this list.
Still, I laughed out loud and clapped my hands with glee when Angela Lansbury crossed the screen.

With a range of 5 to 10 miles, 17 miles per hour top speed, and a lovely minimalistic design, the ZBoard is the coolest little summer personal vehicle project on the block here at the front end of 2012.
17 whole miles per hour! Goodness gracious, how will people survive the ‘>wind burn?!
This board has regenerative brakes, works with sealed lead acid batteries (rechargeable, of course), and has a 24V, 400W motor. And that’s all just with the classic model…These boards have both front and rear foot pads so you can stay stable, the trucks underneath are heavy duty, as are the tires which are off-road-ready, and the whole rig has a handle for easy carrying. The bulk of the weight comes in the battery box, the motor being relatively tiny sitting in front of your back truck.
It’s still not a hover-board or a speederbike like in Star Wars.

This popped up in my Flip Board the other day and I made a mental note to post about it. And then promptly forgot. But, I just gotta say that they do not make TV shows like they used to anymore.
As a kid, I never realized how many “famous” people made guest appearances on this show. But, as a kid, had I realized it I probably wouldn’t have cared a jot. Just catch the Joker, Batman! And please just kiss Catwoman already?!

What side of the brain do you use?
My Score: 43% Left. 57% Right
You are more right-brained than left-brained. The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body. In addition to being known as right-brained, you are also known as a creative thinker who uses feeling and intuition to gather information. You retain this information through the use of images and patterns. You are able to visualize the "whole" picture first, and then work backwards to put the pieces together to create the "whole" picture. Your thought process can appear quite illogical and meandering. The problem-solving techniques that you use involve free association, which is often very innovative and creative. The routes taken to arrive at your conclusions are completely opposite to what a left-brained person would be accustomed.
Huh.
Go get yourself categorized and generalized by a machine that cannot possibly take into account every variable of your life. Although, I will admit that mine is creepily accurate. At least, all my professors tell me I’m illogical and meandering on a regular basis.
I cut out the professions the AI thinks I am best suited for, because they were stupid. ‘nuff said.
Suddenly, my life is incomplete until I have one of these things. It mixes my two favorite things: Star Wars and notebooks. Now if it only came equipped with a star wars pen and one of these really cool bandoliers, and I could die happy. Buried with these things, of course. For use in the after life.
The Egyptians had it so right, burying their people with all the essentials for the world beyond. And a notebook w/ pen attached is essential for me always.
I don’t know how I didn’t know about this website before but thanks to a certain friend (You know who you are) I have been goofing around this place almost always when I have a moment. So, yeah…hooked like a fish. It’s funny stuff – if some of it more than somewhat odd, offensive, or unbelievable.
As a thanks to my “friend”, here’s the link that started me down the path to the Cracked side. See what I did there? I’m hilarious
Happy Leap Year everyone! Hope it is/has been an unusual and extraordinary day.

Anyone else remember that one song with the refrain,
“Sleep! no I never get enough; always waking up tired. Sleep, no I never get enough – if I sleep too late I might get fired.”
Or something akin to that. Yeah. Story of my life right now.
What was the name of that song?
