Belinda is hard to tell in that pic, but I saw her interviewed recently, and she is still hot.

No love for Bananarama?

And The Cars are the ugliest band of all time right?

Bananarama was there:





Ric Ocasek is one of the ugliest men this side of Rocky Dennis, yet he married Paulina Porizkova in her prime. Looks like they are still married, too!

Gotcha. A little too leathery for my liking. Pretty attractive for their age, but I'll pass.

Inappropriate Elf on a Shelf poses. Trying to talk my wife into letting me have more fun with this. Brokeback and Silence of the Lambs killed me.

I wanted to refuse to do it last year, but my son really wanted one. Pulled out Elfie last night for the first time, and both kids went absolutely crazy. So glad I caved. We put him at the bottom of the stairs in one of my shoes, holding a pen like a paddle, so it looks like he is canoeing. Then my wife put an art project ginger bread man in the back. My daughter was so excited that Elfie brought his girlfriend this year.

haha. great idea. oh, and my sister loved the link. You'll know your kids are too old for the elf on the shelf when they start posing him in nsfw positions,

My kids are young enough that they believe you can't touch the elf, otherwise he loses his magic. The Elf moves when everyone is sleeping, and chooses his own positioning. Last night he posed on top of a disco ball, dancing with his girlfriend. And his hat is on his girlfriend. My daughter was extremely impressed that Elfie is strong enough to move my shoe. When I suggested that maybe his girlfriend helped him move the shoe, my daughter stared at me like I'm an idiot and said, "his girlfriend isn't real. She is made out of paper."

A law school classmate posted pictures of his live interview with Boston's Fox affiliate. He is a criminal defense attorney. Such an unfortunate picture when taken out of context:

This anaconda don't want none unless you got drunk, son

(I think it is fake, but I know squat about snakes.)

A shocking photo said to be an anaconda after swallowing a drunk man who had fallen asleep outside a liquor store is spreading after the apparent attack in Attappady Kerala, India. Although currently unconfirmed, the form on an adult human is clearly visible.

ETA: Sorry, it is a fake. Guess I've reached the limits of my own cynical attempts to avoid work this morning.

Gingerbread Crackhouse.

Looks like a heavy-set guy with his t-shirt sleeve cuffed, at least his left arm.

Holy shit.

Awesome. It's always been fascinating to me how some folks are all ho-hum when up all high like that. When I went skydiving I have that 'oh shit' feeling for a moment and then I jump and I'm all "Oh, this ain't so bad."

But to be stationary and just chillin'? That'd make me scared. I know when I went to the Guggenheim Museum their wall is about mid thigh level high when next to it. I felt like I was going to fall and damn near felt panicky standing next to it on the top level. I had to make my way down as fast as possible.

Enough of my rambling though.

Here's a pic of the Grand Canyon with a rare 'total cloud inversion' happening. More here.

For Johnnie and his girl.

I am a sucker for this stupid shit: The 35 Naughtiest Dogs On The Planet.

dogshaming.com is hilarious. If you like that sort of thing.

Lehigh getting through Finals week:



Peyton Manning doesn't stop NFLing ever: (Bonus Photoshop fun pics)



The most ridiculously photogenic baby ever. It's almost uneasy to look at.

Yasujiro Ozu's grave. Gifted with sake, beer (appears to be Budweiser), whiskey and smokes. Ozu was a smoker and an alcoholic. And one of the greatest film-makers that has ever lived. There is no name or date on his grave stone. And that is a very nice touch. There is just the central character "Mu" meaning the void, nothingness. Perfect. Wish I thought of that.

Billy Wilder's grave.

Classes start in January - guaranteed that I will use that line.

So that tombstone is supposed to be missing punctuation and read awkwardly, right?

I'm neither an English major nor a writer, but that shit is irrationally pissing me off.

Derp. I just reread your and DSafe's reaction. I'm so easy to troll.

The "Nobody's Perfect" is the last line of one of his movies.

"Some Like It Hot". Just great.

So it snowed in Egypt today for the first time in a century:

It's also, oddly, in the present tense.

However, that pic you post is fake.
