This week's mini-flood o' links.

Ridiculous weatherman names. These are real. My wife subjects me to #11 nightly. I hate that guy.
List and video clips of the greatest horror movie weapons. I'd use any on #11 above. Twice.
My new band name: The Low Blood Pressures
Bach's Air on bottles.
Give this guy money in advance and he claims he'll send you stuff in the mail.
Best of TV show putdowns.
Looking for that latest addition to your headless doll collection? Better hurry. According to this guy, they're selling fast.
Stand-up of the week: Pablo Francisco

Unless you're going for simple.

(Thanks, Steve... this should provide hours of profoundly pointless entertainment... and a never-ending quest for the perfect band name -- too much.)

All in a row, I *swear*: "The Emptied", "The Chippy", & "The Xantippe"

Golly! I think I'll send that guy $10 to think about me for a minute. I could use some deep contemplation! :P

Although, some star sand from Iriomote would be cool. I'd want to go there myself, though. I want to see one of those Iriomote cats I've heard so much about!!

That guy is a genius. I should have thought of it first.

But... *I* can think about you for *two* minutes for $15, Aaron -- I'm sure that I don't need to point out what a savings that is (25%!) -- what a deal! ...Or I could just do it for free. But no e-mail confirmations for that price -- sorry.

Public Service Announcement

For those of you who will be pulled over by the police and asked the inevitable question, "Because I'm smokin' hot" is not the correct answer to "Do you know why I pulled you over?" Live and learn. Go »

Where's Joe The Plumber When I Need Him?

Screw plumbing! This is friggin' ridiculous. When the toilet in my bedroom bath developed a leak, I assured my wife it was a simple repair to replace the fill valve. Go »

I Know His Name Was Bob (Thanks, Amy)

Prom pictures that are (to be blunt) not good. I think I come closest to number 3. Number 9 is definitely my parents. Go »

No Clowns On Halloween Allowed At My Door

Or "How Ronald McDonald Kicked My Ass" About ten years ago, shortly before Brenda and I got married, we attended a Halloween party at a friend's house. The primary reason to get together was obviously to dress up like we did when we were little but secondarily to get drunk as a sailor on shore leave. The standard "funny name" cocktails were offered like "sex on the beach" and "southern screw" and "raw sewage". Go »
