Monday Pick-Me-Up: Electronics for Cats
Why spend your hard-earned money on catnip mice, string, and whiffle balls with jingle balls in the middle when you can buy an iPad for $600 to keep your cat entertained? How long do you think it took before that guy had to take his iPad back to the Apple store for repairs? Happy Monday! [...]

Monday Pick-Me-Up: TV’s Bloopers and Practical Jokes
Do you remember TV’s Bloopers and Practical Jokes?

Monday Pick-Me-Up: Baby Got Back in the style of Jonathan Coulton
It’s always interesting to me when people take songs and play them in a completely different style. Sometimes the results are beautiful, sometimes I prefer the original, and sometimes they have me holding onto my sides from laughter.
