This was supposed to be mainly news about our novelty/oddity websites, and the novelty industry in general,
but then I got way into novelty music and set up Restless Mouse Radio, so now there's links for that, plus I post the ocassional joke, and, well,
it winds up like most blogs... a hodgepodge of nonsense.
Fortunately there are topic tags so you can find relevant posts easily.
NEED EXERCISE EQUIPMENT
From our local "Freecycle" list; it's an endless source of amusement. I just woke up, and at first I thought a GUY wrote this, or maybe it is so, which would bring shame to all of the male gender;
HELP! I was just asked to be in my girlfriends wedding. Need to lose weight ASAP. Anyone have any weights, rowing machine, stairmaster, or any equiptment that is gathering dust or being used as an extra clothes hanger? I could really put to good use. Thank you - I only have 3 months! EEK!!
... EEK indeed. So, what is she going to do "in" her girlfriend's wedding? Sheesh, nobody's going to be looking at you, it's your girlfriend's big day. Just go and don't whine about the ugly bridesmaid dresses. And hope nobody recognizes you from the bachelor party.
(Three weeks into the new year does seem the ideal time to obtain cast-off like-new exercise equipment, half empty boxes of nicotine patches, and other personal torture devices)
I've been doing a little work on the house... How do you like it so far?
Actually it belongs to a former gangster in Russia, to wit;
"First I added three floors but then the house looked ungainly, like a mushroom," he said. "So I added another and it still didn't look right so I kept going. What you see today is a happy accident."
