Did You Know

People who are heavy into using Twitter have shorter real-life relationships. There's no way to tell, unfortunately, who's dumping who. Is the Twitterer impatient and breaking it off, or are the tweeters just an annoying bunch to be around. That we leave for you to answer. Source



Joke of the Day

A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved three-year-old grandson. It's obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming for candy in the candy aisle, cookies in the cookie aisle and for cereal and soda in the other aisles.

Meanwhile, Granddad is working his way around, saying in a controlled voice: "Easy, William, we won't be long, easy, boy."
Another outburst, and she hears the granddad calmly say: "It's OK, William, just a couple more minutes and we'll be out of here. Hang in there, boy."

At the checkout, the little terror is throwing items out of the cart, and Granddad says again in a controlled voice: "William, William, relax buddy, don't get upset. We'll be home in five minutes; stay cool, William."

Very impressed, the woman goes outside where the grandfather is loading his groceries and the boy into the car. She says to the elderly gentleman: "It's none of my business, but you were amazing in there. I don't know how you did it. That whole time, you kept your composure, and no matter how loud and disruptive he got, you just calmly kept saying things would be OK. William is very lucky to have you as his grandpa."

"Thanks," said the grandfather, "but I'm William. The little blockhead's name is Kevin."



Surf This!


Man Cave! Man Caves, or rooms set aside just for dudes, are the big trend these days. ManCaveSite.org claims to be the "official man cave site" with man cave ideas, photo galleries, and gifts. Here's my favorite:


Check out the gallery here. The only thing missing is a big red button that would launch it into space if the in-laws decided to stay an extra week!
