Tickle Me Elmo Leads to Near Homicide

I wanted one of those Tickle Me Elmo dolls when they first came out. I had one in my hand, and I decided it wasn't worth $15. Dummy, dummy, dummy. That was the doll of the season and I could have bought a condo with the windfall from selling off little Elmo. And trust me, I would have sold him.... Sign in to see full entry.

"I'm Leaving Blogit" has now replaced my hatred of the word Blogger in a

headline. It seems a new marketing tool has been born. For crying out loud, DO OR DO NOT, THERE IS NO TRY. Passion, this isn't for you. I get why you said what you were saying. Unfortunately, it started a sort of oddball wave. Sensitive souls who cried they were going to exit Blogit because there... Sign in to see full entry.

Before You Piss Something Off

Make sure you are the tougher dog...or fish. Even the most unlikely opponents fight back when pushed to the wall. A Florida diver should have thought twice. The man shot a grouper with a spear gun. Then the fish dove into a large hole. The man became entangled in his line as a result---and drowned.... Sign in to see full entry.

Cell Phones Found INSIDE prisoners

You know, I really don't go looking for stuff for this blog. Insanity bombards me, one right after another. Remember the days when people going to visit people in prison had to be checked out to make sure they weren't trying to smuggle in the file in the birthday cake? Boy, have we come a long way....

Mussolini exhumation

I first saw this as one of those little ticker tape things on CNN. Someone wanting to exhume Mussolini. It looks unlikely now, but geez it falls into the nutty category for me. On Last Comic Standing, Ty Barnett (sp), was talking about how people were digging into a famous death, (no pun meant, I... Sign in to see full entry.

Government Study on Childhood Obesity

A new study was just released. It turns out, according to the government, "pudgy" children stand a good chance of still being overweight when they are twelve years old. DUHHHHHHH! And that cost how much to figure out, do you think? Sign in to see full entry.

If he didn't have bad luck, there'd be no luck at all

If EVER there was a poster child for that old adage, this guy is it!! A Israeli man crashed his paraglider, serverely injuring himself. Oh, yeah, he crashed it on the Syrian border. Oh, wait, there's more. The place he crashed his paraglider was also in the middle of a minefield. Sign in to see full entry.

Okay, I don't shameless plug things, but I'm testing

I started two new blogs, one in the writing section (no great shakes yet, so don't get excited), and one called "Through the Looking Glass" which will stay in the opinion section. The Can You Believe This will stay dedicated to whack job things that happen in real life. They will be shorts,... Sign in to see full entry.

Pick a side and stick with it

Everyone is discriminated against if you go by all the loose standards. A man (?) who is a transsexual has pulled the discrimination card on Norway when he asked for TWO passports. He should have the option of traveling as either sex, and for THE MAN to hold him back violates his rights. And the who... Sign in to see full entry.

If you're a Blogger planning a wedding, you can make some money

I just saw this listing. If you are planning your wedding, this listing will interest you. Generally, I don't do the copy/paste thing, but I don't want to get it wrong. This was an ad...so someone paid to find you. They're willing to pay a blogger about $200 a month to follow your words. You're... Sign in to see full entry.
