This was on the front page of the Advocate today. Is it just me or does this pictures look like something out of a comedy routine?

Subject: pic usage

Hey, I work for the student ministry at Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis, TN. We have been working on a series called "my life" and would like to use your photo "IMG_8505" as a background for the part of the series dealing with "my work". It's a great shot, and it fits perfectly with what we're doing. The image would be used in a main session as well as on our website to promote the series. Is it ok with you for us to use it?

Here's the link to the pic in case you're wondering which one: www.flickr.com/photos/joshsisk/93141645/
The website it would be on is: www.bellevuestudents.org

Thanks,
Dave

I told them yes, as long as they credit the photo to me. Abby, you are connecting with religious groups in many mysterious ways!

My coworker's husband was driving in "the tunnel" (I assume the 95 or 895 tunnels under the harbor), and some kind of "vacuum" occurred.
The back window of his jeep shattered.

Sooooo, I am about to be finished Saturday with my test taking to become a member of ye olde Colorado Bar Association. Thus, I will have a few weeks to kick up my feet and take some time for myself for the first time in, like, forever. I've realized that I haven't read a really good book in many many years. Killoggs, I need your help. Please post ONE good, no, great, book that you have read recently to help me on my way. The book can be of any genre, fiction, nonfiction, whatever. I do ask, however, that you refrain from listing a billion books as I am easily confused and won't be able to pick one. Just give me one please. Also, please refrain from listing professional manuals, textbooks or overly specialized texts (that means no books on quantum mathmatics, Nathan). Think leasure, think intellectually stimulating, now GO!

Please Help,

Bibbly

I have an optical mouse on my computer at work. This is it:



Dear readers, do not be deceived by its harmless appearance. This mouse is demonic.



Let me explain. On Monday, when I started up my machine, the pointer arrow was frozen on the screen and the little red light inside the mouse was not on. I checked the wire, shut down, started up again, and everything was back to normal. Or so I thought. My mouse is now possessed. It is a veritable Ouija mouse: every so often while my hand rests on it, perfectly still, the cursor on the screen will start to drift verrrrry slowly, on its own accord. Or should I say, under the control of spirits and ghoulies. So far it seems to enjoy drifting left and up. It hasn't clicked on anything yet by itself, but I assume this is the next logical step. The funny thing is, when I remove my (motionless) hand, the drifting stops. When I touch the mouse again, the drifting continues.
The next time it happens, I'm going to start recording the letters/images that it comes to rest on, because I really do think it's slowly spelling out a message to me. (Q-U-I-T S-U-R-F-I-N-G T-H-E I-N-T-E-R-N-E-T maybe, or Y-O-U W-I-L-L D-I-E I-F Y-O-U D-O-N-T F-I-N-D A N-E-W J-O-B S-O-O-N.)



On a related note, can anyone recommend a good replacement song to get 'Ouija board, Ouija board' out of my head?
