Such As It Is...

Best stuff I found this week.
Christmas stuff you either can't afford or shouldn't buy anyway.
Spectacular pieces of sculpture made from the incredible, edible egg.
Weekly dose of morbidity.
Humor from a master.
Do you think like a psychopath?
Video of the week: Cartman does football color commentary.

So, we can all assume you got the "right" answer, psycho? And more importantly, you don't know my address, right?

My wife didn't get it at all, thank goodness. I didn't get it for two days so I guess that makes me a slow- witted psycho.

Just My Lucky Day, I Guess
Weekly shopping trips have been largely uneventful of late because of the absence of you know who, UOAS. She kind of startled me with her presence at the Safeway tonight and I wondered if God specifically was observing my sense of satisfaction over her MIA status. She noted my surprised expression and commented, "Long time no see!" Go »The New Store
At a local mall, I overheard an interaction between two budding entrepreneurs and an old man strolling along with a cane. A new store announced with a sign, "Opening Soon!" and inside were the two guys opening a few boxes to stack their wares on shelves. Go »Strike Two
Brenda and I attended a school meeting today to discuss the battery of assessments needed to properly develop an education plan for Olivia. After hearing the assessments from the primary teacher, occupational therapist, speech therapist and physical therapist, we got to the part that was a stunner to say the least - the school psychologist. After giving her report which mimicked the other reports to a large degree, she informed us that she felt it was time to officially put it in the record that Olivia was intellectually disabled.

Small representative sample of the films presented "in 5 seconds". Several are inspired by the original joke and many last more than 5 seconds, but all are abridged to hilarious result. These are my favorites: Rocky I, II, III, IV, V, & VI; Scarface; Snakes On A Plane; Titanic; and Gladiator. Go »Driftwood
Washed up on the shores of my PC. In the spirit of Monty Python & The Holy Grail intro, "Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked," comes this notice. Beautiful pictures of a fairly clever notion, holding the sun. Go »

OK, that psychopath thing wasn't fair! Just because you can tell why doesn't mean you would be like that!
Good links, though.
