Pretty quiet around here today, so plenty of time for blogging.

I have some goodies for you all today, too!

For all of you who have seen Pirates of the Caribean, you'll love this.

This was quite an eye opener. I'm always sceptical about how accurate these things are, but if you think of it, it does make sense. It made me momentarily thankful for what I have, but I think I'm back to complaining about student loans and working for $10/hour. It's all relative, I guess. Plus, I've never been one to feel guilty about my own geography.

A patch of dandelions said goodmorning to me today, so I'm feeling pretty happy.

Also, I recommend The Joe Schmo Show for a diversion. It's so bad it's good. I want to take Matt ('Joe Schmo'), and give him a big hug. Last night featured him breaking down into sobs (remember the kind you got as a kid when you had to go to bed and miss the Cosby Show? The kind that had you hyperventilating and choking, and talking only one-syllable at a time?) when they had to 'evict' an old army captain (who is, of course, just an actor). It was hilarious and awful at the same time. If you're okay at laughing at people's misfortune, go watch it.

I've been reading some of the reviews, and a few writers have suggested that the joke is on the audience, and that Matt/Joe simply cannot be that stupid. Well, I think he can. I've been both the victim and the conspirator in many a prank to fully appreciate ones suspension of disbelief in these sorts of scenarios.

Well, that's enough talk about reality shows. At least until tomorrow.
