Walter el perro perdorrero
I went to the vet with Max today and while he was getting his pre-operative bloodwork, I stumbled upon this book in the lobby. After about two pages I was doubled over in uncontrollable silent laughter, and not long after that, tears were streaming down my face. The girl at the desk thought I was upset about something. I found this book on Amazon and I think I might buy it for everyone I know.

Hmmmm.. I now have to check it out at the Library. Talk about a deprived childhood! I was reading kid-adapted stories from the Ramayana in my <5 yr days. :::link:::

Walter the farting dog is a classic! All the kids love it. I think it might even have been produced as a live action play.

no
I have to spend the weekend with (e:Anne) watching my cousins. It's only Saturday afternoon, and we have both come to the conclusion that we are NEVER EVER EVER EVER having children. I mean, seriously give me one good reason. There are enough people in the world. Children are expensive. By the time I retire I will have had hundreds of students aka children I am somewhat responsible for. I enjoy sleeping and weekends. The only reason I may feel bad about not having children is that my parents may never have grandchildren, but is that really a good reason to have children? Seriously. Call me selfish but I am NEVERRRRRRR having children.

That is a responsible decision, not a selfish one.

Maximus
I got a kitty. He was a stray. My friend found him while she was camping. His name is Maximus. I don't like cats, and I will never claim to be a cat person. Yet somehow in the last year, I have met two cats whom I have very fond of. Strange world.

Google Maps = more stalkerish than ever!
So Google is constantly evolving and dazzling and amazing me. But this is crazy! I was browsing some addresses on Google Maps and I found out that not only when you google an address, it gives you a street view of the address...


image

But now if you click where it says Street View, you can look at a picture of the house and the entire street!


image

How freakin cool! I looked at my parent's house and it has my parents newest car, so the pictures must be somewhat recent. Go check it out!

(Apologies to 24 Linwood for stalking you) :)

My landlord is in the street view in front of his house.
tinypliny - 08/21/08 22:02
Hehehe... My brother and I were are on google maps walking toward Delaware down West-Ferry from the Elmwood-West-Ferry Crossing, carrying a humongous La Nova Pizza box. :) Talk about being caught on camera! Buffalo was mapped last fall (around labour day).
dcoffee - 08/21/08 19:36
Yea, this is helpful when shopping for houses, that's what I'm using it for :) Try going up Elmwood or Allen and see if you recognize anybody. It is a little freaky though, gotta admit.
