Scooby-Doo was a Great Dane.
This is truly a revelation to me.

It’s downright amazing how many people set their hair on fire on America’s Funniest Home Videos.
IE8 SUCKS
Published July 10, 2009 Questions , Technology 1 CommentTags: Firefox, IE7, IE8, Internet Explorer
Does anybody else think that the new Internet Explorer 8 is a piece of crap? I sure do. It crashes all the time, takes forever to load pages, the tabs don’t function as well as they did in IE7, and it just overall isn’t as usable as it used to be. It just might be Firefox time.
Federer Wins Wimbledon, Painful-as-Heck Loss for Roddick

Well, Roger Federer continued his reign of total evil world domination of tennis today by winning Wimbledon for the 7,326th time.
I was really, really rooting for Andy Roddick…he played his doggone guts out, and was darn near perfection. Both players battled for what seemed like a 50-hour game. I really felt bad for him. He was a true gentleman in his loss, though…he’ll be back, and I believe he’s going to go all the way.
Hats off to you, Andy…you have nothing to be ashamed of.
Cold Section of Finger

Have you ever had that thing where one small section of your finger will be cold, and the rest be warm? Like you can literally feel the skin and it’s colder in that area than the rest of your finger…what the heck is that?
Can anyone tell me why eating peppermints (to hopefully cure your bad breath) can actually, in about 30 minutes after you eat the mint, make your breath stink worse? Or worser? I’ve heard that it comes from the bacteria that sugar produces, but I would love for a medical breath expert to weigh in on this one.
“Happy Feet” SUCKS

I watched it in the theater when it came out, and now that it’s on ABC and I caught it while flipping channels tonight, I was reminded how much that movie flat-out SUCKS. What a piece of crap. Shut up with all the dumb singing and nerve-wracking medleys.
Stone Temple Pilots

Just dug up some old STP tunes and was really blown away by how severely much they freakin’ ROCK. I almost forgot…I haven’t listened to them in almost 10 years. Absolute favorite album of all time? “Purple.” Absolute favorite song? “Still Remains”.
Can I get a witness?
