Secret Decoder Card

Esty is described as "your place to buy and sell all things homemade". Which is a pretty accurate description. Right before Valentines Day someone on a blog mentioned the cool Secret Decoder Card from crankbunny. I totally want one of these and one of these days I will get around to ordering one!

Is Someone Offended?

I found this journal this morning at work when looking for a something to read. It is not at eye level which is why I think the sticky notes avoided detection up until now for the most part. I discovered the culprit and was informed it was done in jest. It made me laugh so I think it accomplished its plan!

Time Photo Essays

A few of my favorites right now are The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show and The Golden Eagle Hunters of Mongolia. The portraits of the nomads in Mongolia was especially awe inspiring. It makes me want to pack a bag and travel around the world to take photos. Maybe I picked the wrong field!

Stains the Australian Shepard

This poor dog looks so sad! It is just cruel and unusual punishment to put a plate of cupcakes down on his level then pull them away, but hilariously funny.

2009 Super Bowl Ads


I didn't really read the article that went with it I just watched a couple of the ads yesterday while eating my lunch. My favorites were the Bud/Clydesdale ones. Probably just because of the horses. I want a Clydesdale now, but I wonder how much it would be to feed one of those?
