Dang seagull snatched me camera!
Did You Know...
Air conditioning? Nope. Refrigerator? Nope. Computer? Nope again. The biggest electricity drain in many U.S. homes is... your cable box! Yep, the little box that sits on top of the TV, especially those high def DVR cable boxes, use an average 4.46 kilowatt hours a year -- that's 10% more than a fridge! Biggest problem -- the devices run 24 hours a day even when you turn it "off." source
Joke of the Day
Three mothers are sitting on a park bench in Miami Beach talking about how much their sons love them.
Sadie says: "You know that painting hanging in my living room? My son, Arnold, bought that for me. It cost 12-hundred dollars! What a good boy he is and how much he loves his mother."
Minnie says: "You call that love? You know the Cadillac I just got for Mother's Day? That's from my son Bernie. What a doll."
Shirley says, "That's nothing. You know my son Stanley? He's in analysis with a psychoanalyst on Park Ave. for five sessions a week at $300 a pop. And what does he talk about? Me!"

Funny/Scary: Women Withhold Sex Until Road Is Fixed
Women in a small southern Columbia town have vowed to withhold hanky panky from their men until the government fixes the road that leads from their town of 40-thousand, to the rest of civilization. They're calling it a "Crossed Legs Strike." Ever hold back until something got done? G'head...admit it!
Packing Our Weekends Tight
Feeling a little beat down today? There's a reason -- A recent survey found the typical relaxing weekend we used to have is now a thing of the past. A new American Time Use Survey found Americans are using their weekends to catch up on work and household chores. A full 35% of workers overall work on weekends. If you're in sales, you're hit the hardest. More than half of sales workers work on weekends.

12 Ways to Feel Sexy Right Now
From the experts at YourTango.com:
1) Embrace yourself (stop using negative language to describe your body! Just changing the way you think and talk about your body can have a powerful impact on all aspects of your life)

3) Chill out (it's a life full of stress, deadlines and an inflated sense of urgency about practically everything. Once you've mastered the art of letting go, a new world opens up)
