Latest Things on the Web That Made Me Chuckle

Glove Snatching Cat
Our Cat is a Snatcher. Please take these if yours

Keeping to the cat theme, done in "infomercial" style, its Cats for Gold, where you can turn your gold into cats, delivered right to your door. I haven't heard Glenn Beck promoting it yet...

Sweet shaped and colored like PacMan
According to the post, this is a 30th anniversary tasty treat doing the rounds in Japan. It doesn't look that appetizing to me, but after reading about Top Ten Weird and Bizarre Japanese Soft Drinks, the 18 Kit-Kat Flavors You’ve (Probably) Never Tried and Japan is King of weird ice cream flavors?!, it's probably not that bad

Every once in a while, a post on The Onion.com just hits the spot. This one on Gay Teen Worried He Might Be Christian is a great farce. I love the Dad's final line. Some of the silliest writings you'll find are ones done out of ignorance, fear, racism, etc. You have to laugh at them simply because they deserve no serious thought. For instance, the entry in conservapedia.com on Homosexual bait and switch. It's like the statement in the gay marriage trial ongoing in California that if gay's are allowed to marry, next they will make child pornography legal. See the reasoning here is that if men like men, they obviously like little boys. I guess men that like women, and feel this way, do because they like little girls. I can't find any other logic to this....

Girl on stage using gesture technology
I got a Wii with Wii Fit Plus for the holidays, so I can understand that it's not a big leap technology wise to get to fully interactive hand gesture technologies. It's just as I thought about different cultural uses of hand gestures and what some of them stand for, it became clear that there are issues to work out...

I tend to keep up with the legalize marijuana news, and recently there's been some interesting posts on things like Where is America's cannabis capital? (can you believe it's Denver?). But the big news is the new Cheech and Chong Light Up America On Reunion Tour. Yep, the motto is " Get it Legal" and I imagine it being spoken like "get'er done".

Scandalous wedding dress

I keep asking myself who would wear this to their own wedding? A porn star maybe? Unfortunately I know nothing about this picture. (click for full size on the image site)
