Today is International Toot Your Flute Day, National Taco Day , and Dick Tracy Day (premiere 1931).



Tumor Calling!

A study out of Australia found women are hanging up their cell phones for fear they'll get a brain tumor. The survey of 30,000 discovered 1 in 4 had cut back, and an additional 21% plan to do so in the future. This comes a month after experts at the World Health Organization warned that cell phones increased the risk of brain tumors.

Other interesting findings include



  • Cutting down on fast food was the most popular lifestyle change


  • 1/3rd of women are more stressed now than a year ago


  • Close half reported feeling "down" on their weight


  • 1 in 10 were using prespcription drugs to release stress









  • Beer for Chicks!

    For women that won't touch a beer unless it's dressed in a soft, pink label, your day has come! Chick beer, "the only beer brand designed for women," according to the website, is a light lager with low carbs and 97 calories. Oh, and because it has a little less carbonation, you won't burp the alphabet after drinking it . Two great things about this beer:
    1. They donate 5% of all profits to women's charities
    2. Your husband won't touch it!



    Stupid Survey of the Day

    A new survey found women have got food on the mind....
    • 54% think about food more than sex
    • 37% think about eating more than they think about their significant other
    • One in ten would feel worse cheating on a diet than on a partner

    By the way, you should know the survey was conducted by Atkins.



    Temporary Marriages?

    Should marriage really be a "forever" thing, or should it be a "two years at a time and then we'll see where we're at" thing? Officials in Mexico, looking to cut the sky-high divorce rate, are offering couples a temporary marriage license. The marriage contracts run, at minimum, two years, and map out who-gets-what if you decide to separate. Of course, you can also re-up for another two if you can still stand to be around each other.

    Question: If you know you're not locked into marriage forever, would it make it more tempting, or less tempting to stay in?

    Gotta See This

    How's your day? That bad? Then watch a prairie dog ride a Roomba.






    Joke of the Day

    A man went to see his doctor because he was suffering from a miserable cold. His doctor prescribed some pills, but they didn't help.

    On his next visit, the doctor gave him a shot, but that didn't do any good.

    On his third visit the doctor told the man: "Go home and take a hot bath. As soon as you finish bathing throw open all the windows and stand in the draft."

    "But doc," protested the patient, "if I do that, I'll get pneumonia."

    "I know," said the doctor. "I can cure pneumonia!"
