Mail, Safari and iLife… read more »

    Although we didn’t end up going up to the plains on account of everyone we know who does go is in Montreal this year, the camping trip was very nice. This morning finds me itching like mad though. Damn those pesky Stoneham mosquitoes. Dog had fun, despite a few rough times when the boys had… read more »

    The Discovery News website gives us a nice one today. Am I the only one to find this hilarious? “The result, at first glance, is a woman being bonked by a tree. Conti believes it represents the Tree of Life in Adam and Eve’s Garden of Eden.” Really? Read the original here.

    Can’t help but wonder if its the same in every damned ad agency in the world or if I’m simply ridiculously unlucky and just way too patient. Keep returning to that age-old feeling that I’m just not meant for his job. Where the hell is that cozy little underground bookshop I keep dreaming about?
