thanks yahoo!® travel

every once in a while, the travel panel on my my yahoo!® throws me a real doozie. i love it when places that i have been show up.

and it's even more fun when the place is somewhere that i grew up:



that's right. come to kansas city! and see our....mangy....animals.

wtf IS that thing?

need your help

so, tomorrow i go in to perform my civic duty as an alternate juror for the county of essex in the grand commonwealth of massachusetts.

i really don't mind doing it. knowing all of the crazies i attract, the possibility that it could make for an interesting and comical day is very very high.

but just in case, i am looking for advice on the most effective ways to get out of jury duty.

let's hear 'em. i could use the inspiration.

i feel like i haven't offended anyone in a while....

so, here's this:


Al Qaeda Also Fed Up With Ground Zero Construction Delays

FACT: "tuesday" is polish for random

-FACT: twice a year, the skin on the palms of my hands dies. i quite literally molt. right now is one of those times. and it's sexy as hell.

-FACT: the following phrases (when used as punchlines) are NOT funny:

"check please."
"houston, we have a problem."
"you're not in kansas anymore."

-FACT: this headline: "rolling sneakers blamed for hike in children's injuries" shouldn't surprise anyone.

-FACT: the senior class president of the class of '07 here at college now works on the grounds crew around campus. and i find it hysterical.

-FACT: for the first time in my life, i actually care about the stanley cup. more specifically, i wish it were within my power to do whatever necessary to keep it out of the hands of those dirty little waterfowl from orange county.

-FACT: a girl is 95% to blame for the above fact. the other 5% is blamed on my trip to a certain canadian capitol city last summer.

-FACT: i really want to watch america's got talent tonight. if only to find the next blue velvet.

-FACT: bears. beets. battlestar galactica.
