Stripping the Fat Off – Better Half is shimmying her abs into shape
by mimicing a stripper move every chance she gets. A dance choreographer told her to do this move, a shimmy from the waste down, every time she sat to pee. Shimmy on the way down, she said, and shimmy on the way up. There's no way to accurately describe the motion she makes except that her hips...

Google is the most popular and powerful search engine in the world, soon to have catalogs of all major libraries...

Bringing home a stray
He was inside a box on my desk, yelping, tongue dangling in a perpetual smile when I entered my office. That's the one thing everyone notices about him. His smile.

Have we really evolved? News this weekend that a remote tribe
on an unchartered Island in the Indian ocean survived the tsunami by correctly reading the sea, birds, wind and sky. This tribe, numbering just under 250 members, were so in tune with themselves and their environment that they were able to ascertain that an under-sea earthquake was sending a 40-foot...

OMFackingG, Did I Plagerize Ariala? The indoor walls ...
are painted downstairs... but now we need a new rug. Here's what happened: I was on the ladder, balancing a can of paint, leaning as far left and right as I could stretch to paint the edge where the wall meets the ceiling. I'd paint a foot or so on the right side, a foot or so on the left side, get...
