A guy bought a new Mercedes and was out on Highway 2 for a nice evening drive. The top was down, the breeze was blowing through what was left of his hair and he decided to open her up.As the needle jumped up to 140 km/h, he suddenly saw red and blue flashing lights behind him. "There's no way they can catch a Mercedes," he thought to himself and opened her up further. The needle hit 150, 160...The
Conor said to the elderly lady as he got out of the way of her trolley in the supermarket aisle. That lady just beamed. She didn't give a hoot that Conor had designated her a sir but was obviously tickled pink that he'd used manners and so charmingly. I was so proud of him.In my experience, sir and ma'am are practically unheard of here. From kids that is. Call me odd but I've been encouraging
From IMDB: Kevin Costner has a "dream" life as an actor - but it took years of hard work and dedication to carve out a career in music. The Hollywood star is a member of country rock band Modern West and is relishing every moment of being in the group because of the struggle he went through to prove his musical talent. Modern West are currently on tour in the U.S. and are set to release an album i

Three more innocent Israelis are dead and 66 wounded today, victims of a terrorist attack in Jerusalem. The attacker indiscriminately used a bulldozer as a weapon against anything and anyone in his vicinity.

One of my children (it would be unfair to give a name) has tried every trick in the book to get out of handing in homework. Actually, they've all gone through a phase of doing that, so much for my brilliant parenting. Don't kids realise that teachers have heard every excuse and no longer believe any of them? Over the past few weeks I have heard all sorts of excuses from my clients: It was Easter (
I'm not quite in Bon Jovi territory yet, but (Whoooooah) "we're half way there".Half way into the 'two week wait', that is.Next week is going to be exciting....in more ways than one.After our last visit to the reproductive specialist we were left pretty much helpless.

Fan mail. I do so enjoy it. But for all you gentlemen out there, I know that maybe I come across as some sort of lewd tart, but I really am a sensitive soul and would appreciate some tender missives of romance comparing my eyes to limpid pools of Nutella etc. But I suppose I must take what I can get. And what I got today was this:Dear Emma,Not sure if you remember me, but you posted to my blog Eve
I never have used any pick up lines. Reason? I don't initiate relationship with anyone first, but yes- I receive a lot of these pick up lines from guys.

Anyway, there are some really great pick up lines which I just love- the ones which will make me smile and say a YES! Wanna know what t

A teacher was wrapping up class, and started talking about tomorrow's final exam. He said there would be no excuses for not showing up tomorrow, barring a dire medical condition or an immediate family member's death. One smart ass, male student said, "What about extreme sexual exhaustion?", and the whole classroom burst into laughter.After the laughter had subsided, the teacher glared at the stude
As much as it turns me on to be referred to as Sir, its just not the same when its coming from a little old lady washing her hands in the woman's restroom at Target.

The trouble with being a foreigner is that so much of what we say is incomprehensible.Because the life of a foreigner is normal to the foreigner, the foreigner forgets that other people live different lives.Take these two fairly ordinary statements, excuses in this particular instance.

A man was driving home late one afternoon above the speed limit. He noticed a police car with its red lights in his rearview mirror. He thought, "I can outrun this guy," so he floored it and the race was on. The cars were racing down the highway at 90 miles an hour. Finally, as his speedometer passed 100, the guy figured, "What the heck," and gave up. He pulled over to the curb. The police officer

There was a story in last week's New York Times about how the sales of lipstick—not gloss—are an economic indicator and how, in tough times, women in this country turn not only to just smaller indulgences to quell their retail fix, but specifically lipstick. Now, I have heard this many times before but for some reason I just always felt that it was some sad mockery made by men to justify women's spending habits during turmoil. But after reading this article, perhaps there is some truth to the "economic crisis/lipstick boom" theory. I know for a fact that I myself have probably bought way more lipstick this year than in the past, and probably have made more cosmetic purchases than clothing purchases as well. Hmmm...According to the article, you will be buying lipstick for three reasons:
When and how did so many otherwise level headed Americans become obsessed with celebrating a foreign holiday here in God's country?

I know there will be plenty of other bloggers who focus on other substantial highlights from American Idol (America Gives Back segment) that aired last night.

However, I want to give a standing ovation for the goose-bump moment at the end of the show when the contestants gathered on stage and sang, "Shout to the Lord" accompanied by a church choir singing behind them.

A German lorry driver escaped a rap for driving while using a mobile phone - after claiming he was using it as an ear warmer.
A court in Hamm accepted Walter Klein's claims that he had been using the phone which was warm after being recharged to warm his ears.
It means he had not broken the law which says drivers can only make phone calls with a hands free set.
Klein, 43, told the court: "I had an earache and it was being made worse because the cab had not heated up yet - it takes a while on a big rig.
"So I grabbed the phone that had been on charge and put it to my ear, and that was when I was stopped by police."
The court accepted his claim after

America's drinking water was found to contain pharmaceuticals in investigations revealed Sunday. Researchers found antibiotics, mood stabilizers and sex hormones in the tap water. At last Roger Clemens has a defense that can get him into the Hall of Fame.
At least Six flags (SIX) did not blame God for the results like they did in November.
Six flags reported a loss after preferred dividends of $132.4 million, or $1.39 per share, compared with a loss of $195.2 million, or $2.07 per share, a year earlier. This would lead folks to think things are getting better.
While the reported loss improved over last year, if we look strip out the loss from discontinued operations in 2006, we find the loss from continuing operations in 2007 actually...

Whatever may be the reason but ,for sure, property buyers will have to suffer because of the delayed possession and shell out more for their flats:“We have informed our customers that there will be a delay in the delivery of flats due to this force majeure situation. We can’t say when the sub-contractor’s labour will be back, when normalcy will return or when flats will be ready” said Gera Developments chairman Kumar Gera, who is also founder chairman of the Confederation of Real Estate Developers Association of India. “We believe that 50% of labourers have gone back and labour rates have surged from Rs 350 a day to Rs 750.

The American magazine Maxim asked for excuses to the readers after having criticized the last record of the American band Black Crowes, being that the critic had access only the one music of the album. The edition of March of the magazine gave to the Warpaint quotation of two stars and stocking in a scale that goes up to five, but the band insists that she did not have available copies of the album. The band alleges that the magazine alone would obtain to have had access to a music. After the summary published in the magazine, the band wrote in its website: “Incrivelmente, the magazine gave to the album quotation of two stars and stocking, serm that the author of the summary or the publisher of the mag
There have been a handful of times in my life where I have been happily going about my day when a thought springs unbidden to my mind: Wouldn't it be nice to take a sick day?Since this is an unbidden though, I always reject and banish it immediately. But in 100% of the cases, I have come down with a bad cold 24-48 hours after having this thought. I've pondered this phenomenon before. Does my body realize before my awareness does that I'm run down, succumbing to a virus? Or does my need for recuperation cause my body to shut down, allowing viruses to thrive and forcing me to rest? (Incidentally, the question of matter vs. consciousness having the upper hand is a major difference between eastern and western religious worldview; but that's another story).So when I was doing the dishes la
Almost half 42% of British teens say people who do not use condoms are irresponsible, four out of ten say its too risky not to, and only 2.5% of Britain’s 13 – 17 year olds think it’s cool not to use condoms. Yet many don’t bother to use protection when having sex. So why are teens today not protecting themselves?Not thinking about the consequences of unprotected sex is named as the number one reason why half of all 13 to 17 year olds in Britain don’t use condoms. Excuse number two is the lack of availability of condoms at late night parties, in fact 48% of young people have today revealed that not being able to access condoms whilst staying out until the small hours of the morning prevents them from having safer sex.In third place, 46% of teens say that as the night hots up and
It's been a while.Things have been a little overwhelming in our house the past two weeks. I had been blogging a little about how the Guppy is teething and is very clingy and cranky, and also how she is not sleeping at all.Well, it only went downhill from there.The Mermaid came down with this mysterious cold/slight stomache bug. It was frustrating because it was one of those ones that we simply could not get rid of. It wasn't too horrific, she was able to continue on to play and learn, but it was enough of a nuisance that she was cranky and that we missed our homeschooling and playgroups for two weeks.Add to that the fact that the Guppy's teething got worse more than I ever realized it could get. One day this past week she was screaming so much that I was convinced she was dying and took he

My newest treasureMy "little guy" was born Friday, January 18th at 8:17pm. He weighed in at 10 pounds, 2 ounces!!! Yes, that's why I've been having such a hard time these past few months... because I've been carrying around a giant monster!
Bite Me recently made her twice annual trip to Suva Harbour for her Fiji Islands Maritime Safety Authority (FIMSA) inspection which of course she passed with flying colours.On the return trip, skipper Adrian had the pleasure of the company of fellow Resort Director Stuart Gow working the deck and along for the ride, Maurene, owner of Waisalima Beach Resort and her daughter Coral.No opportunity to fish being passed over, we soon had a couple of rods out and Adrian made a few minor detours past favoured fishing grounds.First surprise was a nice wahoo on a temperature break off Solo atoll which Stuart handled with a deft touch. Though a newbie at this fishing lark, he oversees the Resort Gamefishing Blog and clearly had been reading up on his homework.Next up was Maurene and she was duly connected with a nice yellowfin tuna. After a good 30 minutes of hard fighting, it was clear that this yellowfin was no little munchkin and Coral stepped up to the rod to relieve Maurene's tiring arms. A
Today is my younger, harder working, more attractive brother’s 19th birthday. He always hated his birthday, largely because - as he put it - he “got screwed out of presents”. I always felt sorry for people who was born around Christmas time, as a materialistic S.O.B. I used to thate the thought that my special day was shared with another people. Of course, I’ve since lightened up thanks to my wonderous discovery of alcohol.
A few years ago my mate for a secret santa bought me a great calendar called “Any Excuse for A Piss Up”. In it, it gave reasons for every day to get absolutely smashed. Most were viable, but tenuous (Workers Day in Namibia - for example), but March 4th was terrible “Ex Inauguration Day in the US”, a day to celebrate when Presidents used to be sworn in, but not anymore.
Either way, I drunk to it.
Anything special happen on your birthday? Or are you born around Christmas, you poor sod?

has been rediscovered and you can go read them here.
TBogg insinuates that the Holoscan snafu is the reason that
the restored comment thread is missing the Jaques comment,
but he does not actually say it, and for good reason. The Jaques deletion had
nothing to do with any comment system switchover.
A commentator
at Alec's Error Theory blog looked up TBogg's site on the Wayback
Machine. Turns out that Wayback was taking snapshots of

Between volunteering to help with my mother’s ESL kindergarden class (and consequently becoming the best Gingerbread and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom storyteller EVER!! Ok not really, but I can dream) and my dad having a small heart scare on Wednesday–I’ve been a bit distracted from le bloggosphere. (If you didn’t know, an inverted T-wave can ruin your day.) Also, productivity evangelism is exciting and fun, but none the less hard work (more info to come soon). Thankfully my dad is ok and he went home from St. Thomas hospital on Thursday morning, after staying the night on Wednesday.

First, let me excuse the look on my face by saying I was freshly strapped into my cast and had just taken a pain pill with my Snickers bar.
An athlete’s nightmare, a Candy Addict’s dream: a fractured tibia (shin) courtesy of a soccer opponent. Since I’m both an athlete and a Candy Addict, for the last couple of months, I’ve been living a strange mix of both a nightmare and a dream - the inability to move around, and a ready-made excuse to sit around and eat candy.
I try to stay positive, and the doctor actually told me that positive thinking can help the body heal faster, so I decided to turn my unlucky handicap into a sugarfest. I donned my Candy Addict t-shirt and began my sedentary journey with a blessed last Elvis Reese’s Cup that I’d found for 70 cents at a low-end grocery store.
Between icing my leg (thank goodness for removable casts), using a heating pad to stimulate circulation to the bone, and keeping it elevated, I took comfort in candy.
So the rioters have driven Taslima Nasreen away from Kolkata, just as they drove her away from Hyderabad in August. Why are the politically orthodox Muslims so afraid of this woman? What has she said that has offended them so much? Evidently, she has criticized the manner in which Islamic clerics (and clerics of other religions) treat women. What followers of the revealed religions fail to understand is that although they might believe they are upholding the word of God, those who have to suffer through their interpretation of revelation also have a right to speak up and be heard. However, Islam today, as Christianity as late as the early twentieth century and Hinduism not so long ago, has to learn to listen, not just to the voice of God as embodied in its holy book and other traditional
I've looked at a couple examples of what the "Search for Ray Palmer" is like, such as in the review given here, and it's apparent that DC's editors are just looking for more tired excuses to drag it all out in a shipload of specials. And if that's the case, then I see no reason for anyone to waste their money.
Thanks to this, it wouldn't surprise me if any excitement that could've come from
The London premiere of Om Shanti Om seemed rather incomplete without Shah Rukh Khan’s director Farah Khan and his best friend Karan Johar.
Neither could attend the event for personal rather. Farah Khan is not allowed to travel in her advanced stage of pregnancy. But Karan who has designed Shah Rukh’s clothes in Om Shanti Om had to drop out at the last minute due to a family crisis.

I am sorry but today I will not do my 30 days with 30 blogs commitment as I need to fix a serious problem. I do need advice, but I think I can't write what is my problem here... you can see the shoutbox then you will know..
Maybe someone is a little bit bitter about having their luggage stolen... hmmm??** I know, it's really put there by the airport to remind people to check their tags because they aren't the only person in the world with a little black rolling suitcase with a red ribbon tied to it. I know. I know.
I am always amused at what Republican politicians have to say when they are trying to weave and dodge questions about changing their residency to run for public office.
Dee Margo (R-El Paso), who ran an unsuccessful race against State Sen. Elliot Shapleigh (D-El Paso) last year, had earlier said he wasn’t going to challenge State Rep. Pat Haggerty (R-El Paso) in the GOP Primary this year and that he wasn’t going to move.
Now, however, he’s changing his tune, at least on the latter:
Dee Margo, CEO and chairman of JDW Insurance, said today he is looking at building a new, one-level home in the Upper Valley.
Buying a home there soon would put him inside state Rep. Pat Haggerty’s district and make him eligible to challenge Haggerty in the March Republican Primary.
[…]
But Margo said he hasn’t bought anything yet. He’s just talking with architects and builders. The reason for the move, he added, has nothing to do with politics.

Dear Mr. Mabuti,
Please excuse my daughter, Cecilia Diaz, for being absent in your class because her sister got sick; her mother cannot attend to her due to the fact that the father went to Manila to call his sister who is a nurse but who was sent to a seminar in Cebu; so the father decided to call his mother but she was on vacation in Antipolo because her granddaughter joined a field trip;...
