Yet more awesome. Nothing cool ever happens to me. I wonder what I would have done.
Also, what's with the comments on this page? Everyone seems really keen on bank interest rates, not the cool part.

For my Lawyer Friends
Larry H. Parker has nothing on Melanie Berliet! In her compelling defense of Adam and Eve, Berliet claims extortion on the part of, you guessed it, the Almighty. She fights, she claws, she wins!
"Humanity at Large asks not for monetary compensation. They do, however, ask for the right to premarital relations without guilt, or the risk of sexually transmitted diseases, especially herpes. Humanity also posits that the sacrament of marriage be redefined as a union between any two beings wanting to make such a commitment to one another, including alpacas."

Garfield Minus Garfield
My new friend Jim sent me this link to a blog called "Garfield Minus Garfield" - it's hysterical. Here's the blurb:
Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle. Let’s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness in a quiet American suburb.
Jon Arbuckle's life disconcertingly resembles how I spend some of my selfunemployment days...but at least no one's trying to draw me.
Love
me

Ah, the good old days....
Just thought people might be interested in this.. The relevant line is, of course, "...hedge funds and other speculators, desperate for a hot market in which to play, have been inflating oil prices..."

How NOT to teach English
I have many things to say to you, faithful HONers who have stuck with us through the good and the bad. I'd like to tell you about my new found desire to dog sled (and still burning desire to trapeze), I'd like to tell you how the Burger King in Marion, North Carolina is the happiest place on earth.
Instead, I'm going to point you in two directions - both too surreal to be fakes - of ways NOT to teach language. The first is a video shown to real Japanese folk, and the second are blocks distributed across China. I have never laughed so hard in my life. My selfunemployed profession is fighting an uphill battle, kids, I'll tell you that.
