First Post

Rather than clog the TC Board with things that mostly interest me exclusively, this seemed a more appropriate avenue. I'll probably post something nearly every day as I'm online daily just surfin' & lookin' for weird stuff. For example, how else would I have ever known of these products if I hadn't seen them using "strange" in a search string? What did I do before the net? Bugged the shit out of my wife with crap in the newspaper. Now it's with crap I find on the net. Now it's your turn.

Cool! Thanks for saving me the trouble of surfing to find more from the world of the BizarreNetBazaar, Steve!!!

Been meaning to be more contributive and the R$ was what finally pushed me over the edge, so to speak. But removing that won't keep me from this blog. I meant what I said about sharing maybe a link a day and not crowding TC. It's fun for me to share the weird crap I encounter. Will truthfully be sad about the R$'s going away for it though.

Yeah, me too... and in no small part because some otherwise really quiet folks have been a bit more active, too (Denise!) -- it isn't *all* about the money! (Just mostly... ;-D)

Today, Brenda and I had our annual meeting for Olivia's Individual Education Plan (IEP). The whole team meets which is comprised by at least 6 various educators and the parents. Some teachers just pop in for just a few minutes. Go »There Really Are Superheroes
And most of them wear capes. Oddee does a nice roundup of ten real-life superheroes - people who actually dress up in costume and prowl their respective cities with a willingness to foil criminals and their crimes. While you may question their sartorial wisdom, you gotta admire their desire to make a difference. Go »Where's The Winch?
We took the girls sailing today. Unlike last year, Olivia did not throw a winch handle overboard because of our diligence in preventing it. The sailing is still free because of the heart of the owner who offers this once a month during the summer. Go »Coolest Home Theater Ever
Chance of impressing your friends: 100% Chance of getting laid: Somewhat lower. This is definitely going to be a part of Barbie's Dream House. Especially if it comes with a replicator. Go »Christmas Post #5: For Those Just A Little Too Happy
I know a lot of happy people, I mean people that see humor in the Holocaust. I, myself, am generally a happy guy but not to that extent. A few of those people are on my Christmas list and will be receiving this stocking stuffer from me. Go »

Steve, I really appreciate all the contributions you've made lately, and I hope to keep reading more strange links from you. However, if you're doing it to get more R$, and there's nothing wrong with it if you are, that's probably going to go away shortly.
