Ok...Neatorama is full of win today. Anyhow, while I never heard of these girls before, their act is awesome!
She wanted to be a singer, but no one took her seriously...

Proof that I shouldn't hop on the web in the middle of the night, these creatures will give me nightmares. All of them have they're special freaky skills that would make me poop myself. The Tasmanian Tiger (shown below), can open it's mouth 120 degrees, which is pretty intimidating. Speaking of mouths, there's a shark in the post, that has the mouth similar to the creature from the movie, Aliens. I don't like sharks to begin with, but that just creeps me out even more. Oh, and as I said in my Facebook post - the flying snake only encourages me to take up skeet shooting. Anyhow, wait until morning to check this out - The Most Disturbing Animals on Earth
(Thank you Neatorama)
Found this on Neatorama. Interesting collection of Tattoos. I'm thinking about getting another one. I might have to consider going this route. Check out the full collection here - http://www.contrariwise.org/
Here are some examples:
I stumbled onto this article from Time Magazine - How to Live With Just 100 Things (via neatorama) and I'm wondering if I can pull it off. Here are the rules to the 100 Thing Challenge. Now here's the key...you can limit the number of items that are "personal". So if you are sharing a place with someone else (family/significant other/friend/etc.), then then you can exclude the common items used by everyone such as furniture, plates, major appliances, etc. Seeing how I live by myself, I'm not sure if I want to bend the rules on this. There's no mass public transportation where I live, so I need my car to go to work, groceries, and what not. I guess I could call a taxi, so that's a maybe.
Anyhow, I'm going to keep this a theoretical model for the time being. I'm curios on the number of items I truly have. Heck, I probably have close to 100 items in the tech world alone. I have 4 digital cameras, which all are used at least once a year. I guess that I would have to count all the accessories for them as well and when you add up the lenses, filters, batteries, chargers, memory cards, and cases, that would take up about 50 slots. Hmm...I have three MP3 players - my 80 gig Ipod, which has most of my music on it, plus some videos and pics, a small creative mp3 for when I exercise or do something outdoors and a 30 gig Zune that I keep at work. I have two computers (a desktop and a notebook), three external hard drives (I have a system for that). Now looking to my left, I see about 60 some books on my book case, which about 40% I've read (I'm a sucker when it comes to finding used books). And I haven't even begun with my clothes. So....creating my model will take some work. I'll probably work out a list of my list some time this week. Stay tuned...
p.s. - I would love to see what everyone would choose as their 100 personal items.
