Happy Inauguration Er'body

This is a happy day. So relieved it finally happened. Looking forward to the changes to come.

In the meantime, Obama look-alike reaches star status in Indonesia:

Heart Melting

Watched "March of the Penguins" yesterday. We humans have it easy compared to the 70 mile march that the Emperor Penguins have to take several times a year in the freezing arctic, the frigid winter snow storms that the penguins brave with nothing more than mere huddling, the death that creeps upon them every step of the way to the birth of a baby penguin. Respect, dear penguin.

Awesomest Game

Fast, fun. Mouse over to collect "doeos". What are "doeos" you ask? See below.

Play here immediately with speakers on.

I want to eat that?

On the way back to the office from the post-office today I walked by this awesome sculpture by Jeff Koons (check out the "Celebration" series). I love his work despite how ridiculously over-priced and over-hyped it is.

Thought of the Day

Provoking question from MUG:

You know those '2009' glasses that people have been wearing for New Year's eve this decade, in which the two centered 00's were for your eyes? The next time this is possible is the year 3000. We wonder, will people wear those glasses then?

Happy Holidays!

Sorry for the hiatus (don't hate me), I was in Hong Kong for 2 weeks visiting the fam. Check out their new puppy - he's a white Shiba Inu.
