Acrobots


One of the best "time-wasters" I've ever seen. There's something hypnotic about watching the acrobots twirl in the air and then "caught" by one lower down.

Adjust the gravity with the slider control, the background color with the light bulb and add or take-away acrobots with the postive/negative icons. If they're not moving fast enough for you, flip them over with the arrow circle.

The Year in Review - Uncle Jay

Don't Mess With Taxes

I have a daily Google alert that notifies me every time another website links to this blog.

To be honest, it's been few emails and far between those few, although I was surprised to see that the award-winning financial blog Don't Mess With Taxes has put me into their "Fun beyond finances, really!" blog roll.



I've already written the owner of the blog, one Ms. S Kay Bell, thanking her for including me on her blog list. I also told her I probably should ask if she'd like her site listed here, but that it would be like me asking Tiger Woods to play a round of golf or challenging Jimmy Conners to an old-timer's tennis match.

I didn't ask about her reasons for slumming. I think I probably should warn her that hanging around joints like this can damage her reputation.

Like most anyone, I'm almost always grateful for any attention, but I'm wonderin' if there's gonna be ramifications to this.

The good news is this blog might very well double the avg. daily number of first-time visits from four to eight. ("first-time" because most people don't ever come back) I probably can handle the traffic and activity.

The bad news is I might get audited. I'm already having second thoughts about my Google alert for "Obama's Birth Certificate".

I don't wanna get sent to the death camps.

EDIT: I did some research on Ms. Bell and found out she's extremely cute, successful and a Texan, so I was thinking that since I'm one out of those three things....but it sucks to be me, she's married.

It would be nice to be married to a woman who knows how to handle and manage money. My ex, bless her heart, was the worst at that, even worse than me.
