49 Out of 50 is Pretty Compelling | Tragic Comedy

Forty-nine out of fifty states currently have snow on the ground from recent snowfalls. Guess which state is the only one without snow. That's right, Brenda. It's Florida. Take a look out our front window. See that white stuff piled in our front yard. None of that in Florida right now. Even Hawaii has friggin' snow! Only one more reason we should move to the Sunshine State. Are you listening to me?

She can't hear me 'cause she's wearing earmuffs even in our climate controlled living room. It's freaking cold outside.

I Tap My Magic Wand

This is just the coolest fountain. It may appear photoshopped but this actually has a pipe hidden within the water flow that supplies the water. I really have hopes that when I buy "Barbie's Dream House" (the euphemism my daughter and I use for our future house), a smaller version of this will be in my library. Go »
