Joke of the Day

Two drunks are walking along. One drunk says to the other, "What a beautiful night, look at the moon."

The other drunk stops and looks at his drunken friend, "You are wrong. That's not the moon, that's the sun."

Both started arguing for a while when they came upon another drunk walking, so they stopped him. "Sir, could you please help settle our argument? Tell us what that thing is up in the sky that's shining. Is it the moon or the sun?"

The third drunk looked at the sky and then looked at them and said, "Sorry, I don't live around here.

Facebook Is Draining Your Wallet!

The average Facebook user ~~wastes~~ devotes eight hours a month to the social network, and that not only translates into lost time, but lost bucks, too.

A survey from online marketing experts Sociable Labs discovered that we are heavily influenced into buying products our Facebook friends "like" or recommend. It's called 'social proofing', and three-quarters of us have clicked on product links shared or "liked" by friends on the site.

After clicking, more than half of us ended up buying the product.

Pinterest Interest Dropping?

Could the social media craze of 2012 be losing steam? Pinterest had crazy growth in January and February but is unexpectedly losing users this month. It seems monthly active users are down from 11.15 million on April 1st to 8.3 million today. Time to hit the panic button? Hardly. It's speculated that the meteoric rise in growth were from people just curious to try it out for a couple days. The core audience, women, are still passionate about the site.

Fact: Pinterest is not the third most popular social networking site behind Facebook and Twitter.

Lawsuit of the Day

A group of parents are suing Apple because their children spent real money playing games on their parent's iPhones and iPads. The suit claims youngsters can purchase "game currencies" without their parents knowing. Games like Smurf Village are free, but the 1,000 credits involved in using the game costs $59.

The children named in the suit spent anywhere from $100 to $340 of their parent's money playing the games. Games that the suit calem are addictive, and used to generate more money for the company.

Apple claims no responsibility because parents agree to the stated terms and conditions before downloading the app.

Women -- So Busted!

Men are always taking heat for checking out other women on the beach while with their wives or girlfriends. That's why men where mirrored sunglasses, right? So they won't get caught?

Relax, guys, you won't get caught, because she's too busy checking out other men... even more than you're ogling other women!

In a new survey, 56% of men admitted to eyeing up members of the opposite sex while on vacation with their partner. 74% of women said the same.

How about that? So busted!

How do women seem to get away with it? 77% try and cover it up by doing things like waiting until their partner was not around, or by wearing sunglasses. Some pretended to be looking at a member of the same sex, while others just made sure their partner did not see.

Phones/Facebook: What's your stealthy technique for checking other people out at the beach?

Worst Wedding Pictures Ever

Are these the world's WORST wedding photos ever? It's possible.

Thomas and Anneka Geary hired 2 photographers to capture their special day, but what they got back were a series of disasters, including...

A photo of the couple signing the marriage register with a mysterious hand in the background holding a toy motorcycle (which was Anneka's 3-year-old nephew)
Shots of the bride and groom walking through the door with cardboard boxes in the foreground
A shot of the entire family posed on steps with a child's head popping up at the bottom of the photo
A shot of friends and family toasting the couple -- no faces are seen, just the back of heads

The photographers would love to refund their money, but the firm went out of business after paying off a string of disgruntled customers.
