They just had a report on CNN about aquarium officials in the path of the hurricane evacuating dolphins in their facility to area hotel swimming pools. Their reporter was talking to an aquarium official while watching 3 dolphins swimming around in a pool. He asked if they were evacuating more than these 3 dolphins. “Oh yeah, we have 3 at the Best Western and 3 at the Holiday Inn.” I have no idea why, but for some reason, that completely cracked me up. Will they get turn down service? Is a continental breakfast included?

Having trouble printing a web page in IE? Perhaps this might be the reason why. Talk about random.

This is pretty cool…a wee bit creepy, but pretty cool. Wonder how much they pay for people to go around and take the pictures?

I can’t stop watching…even when they are just laying there sleeping and snoring. I have no idea why it’s so addictive.

…with this staring at you? I don’t know if I could!

Turns out, the launch might not have been so beautiful: NASA to Ground Shuttle Program Over Foam Debris

NASA suspended further flights of the space shuttle fleet on Wednesday after determining that a large piece of insulating foam had broken off the external fuel tank of the shuttle Discovery during its liftoff Tuesday morning – the same problem that doomed the Columbia and its seven astronauts in the last mission, two and a half years ago.

Some great photos of yesterday’s shuttle launch can be found here.

Apparently not a lot to highway sign makers and the residents of Easthampton, Mass.

I should never have become a home owner. I’m just not responsible enough to be one. My house is a mess. Picking it up with be so easy, why won’t I? Most of my closet doors don’t work; I have a cabinet in the kitchen that I tape shut to the dishwasher so my cat won’t get into it; the flusher in the toilet hasn’t worked since I moved in (you have to lift the handle back up after flushing); the backdoor doesn’t open without great force and the bottom plate was never installed; the front door dead bolt lock won’t turn if the door is closed all the way – you have to turn it when the door is partially closed; the attic access has been mucked up since I moved in; there’s still stuff in the medicine cabinet from the home’s previous owner. That list is just partial – and we won’t even talk about the lawn issues. I need a house boy!

Here’s something I never thought I’d hear on the news:

I can’t find a Harry Potter anywhere.
