Bad Ads...

I was on a blog site called 23/6 reading something about Bush (nothing good mind you) and I happened to notice this ad from Google. Not only did this person lose 12 Lbs in two weeks, she went from black to white (pasty white at that). So remember people when you see ads, they are there to make money - from you!

Sarah Palin - A Bad Disney Movie...

From Towleroad:

Earlier this month, Matt Damon said he feared that Sarah Palin might become president:

"I think there's a really good chance that Sarah Palin could be President, and I think that's a really scary thing...cause I don't know anything about her. It's like a really bad Disney movie, 'The Hockey Mom.' Oh, I'm just a hockey mom from Alaska, and she's president. She's facing down Vladimir Putin and using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink. It's absurd."

College humor decided to make that really bad Disney movie a reality.

Michael Phelps Joins Cast Of Grey's Anatomy...

Jimmy Kimmel did an interview with Michael Phelps recently and they talked about Phelps' role as Dr. McSwimmy this season on Grey's Anatomy. Watch the sneak peak below - he is going to be good.

I Think I Found God...

This is the best god worship video I have seen. The three in the video are singing praise to god and the Renewed Mind Is The Key. Now I had to watch it all the way through and if I didn't I would have missed the wonderful "white-boy" popping and moon-walking that starts around the 2:00 minute mark. The song will stick with you all day. Its just wonderful!!



I also love the verse: "We've got all our potential power that god could ever give. Now we stand up on our legal rights and boldly make them live." This comes from a blog I read: Famous Like Me

Copy Cat II...

Just recently Mikayla has started to do something that Mark and I could not figure out. We have been doing a little potty training (not much she is too young still), but nothing too in depth. We have been asking if she has to pee or has done so. We ask if she has pooped and she usually says yes when she did. She has not gotten the idea that she needs to tell us before she does it, but when she has we take it to the toilet and flush it. This, we hope, will associate the process with the place to do it.

But then one day we were walking through the bathroom (yes we have a walk through bathroom) and she ran to the toilet, lifted the seat, and grabbed her shirt and pulled it towards the water. We thought she was going to pull it into the water, but she only pulled it far enough to go over the rim. Then she closed the seat cover and flushed. You probably already know, but for Mark and I (we are slow in that way) we could not figure out what she was doing. This became an event that happened more than once a day. We figured that it was something that her little mind needed to process and only she knew what it was.

Then one day it hit me - she was copying her Daddy and Papa. She wanted to pee int he toilet like we did so she would walk up to the toilet, open the seat, and pull on her shirt since that was the only thing that she has. She was pretending to pee like us. Once we figured this out (again we are slow), we figured that she was ready to understand that she needs to sit while she used the potty (unless of curse she is trying to be Madonna). So from that point on we are making it a point that when she is around we are showing her what she needs to do when she used the toilet. We now tell her that she needs to sit when she pees and she turns around and tries to sit.

Below is a little movie of her trying to use her shirt to pee from.

Taking Care of Baby - The Instructions...

Mark and I just received these instructions on how to care for your baby. Wish we had them sooner, we are obviously doing some things wrong. For one, the way you calm a baby. It works for us why not them? Then washing and drying. I would just toss Mikayla in with the regular laundry - how was I supposed to know? And Mikayla really doesn't like to bond over coffee. She is more of a tea person!

Sunday Morning Confessions...

For those of you religious types, here is "The Automatic Confession Service of the Catholic Church". Since the priest are too busy chasing young boys, you can now make your confessions known only to the automated confessional (and the rest of the church).

Peep Show...

Since today is the day that some celebrate the re-birth of their savior, I decided that I would celebrate the day with a little peep show. This is how I celebrate this time of year. I like mine dry and hard. How about you? I hope you enjoy!!!

Advertising...

This is for your "morning tongue".


Here is an anti-smoking "truth" advertisement. It takes a twist on Disney.


This one is for Schweppes. Really don't care what it is for, the visuals are cool.

Holding Jesus For Ransom...

When you don't clean up after your wieners, you lose Jesus - or so it seems.

Peek-A-Boo...

With in the last week, Mikayla has been using anything she can get her hands on to play Peek-A-Boo. It really didn't start with us covering our faces and pulling our hands away. It started with a book called "Baby Faces". In this book is a baby under a basket and it ask "Where's Baby" and on the next page it has the baby uncovered with the caption "Peek-A-Boo!". Mark and I started covering Mikayla's face with our hands when we ask where's baby and pulling them away for Peek-A-Boo. This progressed to a towel and then to anything that she could find to cover her face. This is a game that you will not win!

Below are two videos of Mikayla playing Peek-A-Boo:

Diebold Spoiler...

Spoiler Alert: For those of you who don't want to know the outcome of the Presidential Race in November 2008, don't watch the video below. Diebold is the maker of the electronic voting machines that are taking over our electoral process. There is no paper trail to keep the results accurate and the company's head is the former chairman of the Maryland Republican Party.

The Onion's report:


Diebold Accidentally Leaks Results Of 2008 Election Early

This is very funny!

Scream...

Now the one thing we never expected when we adopted was the we were going to have a child that could break your ear drums with her screams. Mikayla has the highest pitch scream that I have ever heard. I used to take her to the store and look guilty when she did it, but now I just look at the people and think "Deal with it I have her screaming all day. You have five minutes." So with that said, here is her scream. Notice how she quiets the music and I am right next to the speakers when I am filming this. She screamed because she loves our cat Milo and she saw him come in. He makes an appearance near the end of the video. Also, the sound really doesn't do her justice. You have to hear her in person to appreciate.

Slap Daddy...

So what does Mikayla do when she is bored? She slaps daddy. Mikayla is sitting with dad while he reads the news. She starts to get bored and decides that she needs to keep her hands busy. Now this is a normal occurrence when dad is feeding her. For some reason she decides that she is going to slap him. She does not do this to me.

Smile...

This little clip shows you what fun Mikayla is. I just love watching this video. This is the fun of having kids. They remind us that no matter what, you can stick your tongue out at the world and give it raspberries and then laugh at it. So before you go to work or start your day, watch Mikayla's video and just smile.

Man mistakes bar patrons for bears

Daniel Pement was charged with six counts of misdemeanor assault after allegedly spraying patrons with bear repellent spray, twice.

On Saturday, after being escorted out of the bar, Pement allegedly returned a few minutes later and began spraying other bar attendees. After the police arrived, they confiscated the bear spray - only to be called back Sunday for the same offense. Pement had acquired another can of spray.
