Dog Day Afternoon

Got an email from Fanbox yesterday afternoon, saying I had a fairly large amt. of money in my account.  Now, I don't remember signing up for it, but that's nothing new - I got an email from Flickr a while back telling me I needed to sign into the site if I wanted to keep my acct., so it was a distinct possibility that I had joined the site then promptly forgot about it. (as I did Flickr)   So, I went to the site to see why it was I had money in my account and when I clicked on the link, the above was where I was sent.

I read more about it and found out many on the 'net think it's a scam. It probably is because I would have had to give some sensitive information to cash in my money, but their 404 page is cute.

They can keep the money.

My (Mostly) Masculine Meals

You Eat Like a Typical Man

You prefer food that's hearty, traditional, and filling. You don't like to mess around when it comes to your meals. You believe the plate should be focused on meat, and you really can't get enough of the stuff. You like a meal that's big and satisfying. Nothing bums you out more than small portions. You aren't huge on snacking, so each meal needs to hold you over until the next.

Do You Eat Like a Man or a Woman?

The part about my wanting meals to be mostly meat isn't quite true, but other than that, I'd agree with the results, although I've seen some women that could eat (and drink) me under the table. I'm not much on these male/female stereotypes, either, because I like quiche and I'm a real man. I'll eat most things and would try nearly anything.

NEARLY anything.  I don't think I'd put it in my mouth if it smelled bad or was still alive...especially if it was alive and wriggling.

ailurophilia

ailurophilia ai·lu·ro·phil·i·a [ahy-loor-uh-fil-ee-uh, ey-loor-] noun

a liking for cats, as by cat fanciers.

---

Not sure if this word describes me, because I don't just have a liking for cats, I love 'em. (Well, most of 'em, anyway; as many hang around my house, they sure love ME.)

I wonder if there's a word for a phobia about hating litter boxes?

Introducing Josh Turner

It was in my YouTube recommendations - a video of some kid named Josh Turner doing the Dire Straits "Sultans of Swing".  I probably would have ignored it except that's one of my favorite songs.  Still, I thought twice about clicking on the video because I'd seen other covers of the tune and wasn't at all impressed...however, I certainly was impressed with Mr. Turner's version.

I then watched many other of his videos and was even more impressed;  he often does other covers with a few of whom I suppose are some of his friends and sometimes accompanies a few young ladies (who also impress me with their vocal talent) on the guitar and sings harmony.  I'm not sure what-all instruments he plays, but I've so far seen him play guitars, both 6 and 12-string as well as a mandolin.  I suspect he can play several other musical instruments.

So, here's introducing Josh Turner...if you don't already know who he is.  I predict a bright future for this talented young man.

Good Movie, Bad Move

From Indiewire, a movie website.

These types of 404 pages are the most annoying to me; why would I want to search for something else if what I wanted to read in the first place wasn't there? 

I'm giving the site a bad review for a bad link!
