I tried to post this last night but for some reason Xanga wasn't working for me.  I would click on Xanga and it would take minutes to load up the front page and then I'd log-in and it would take about 10 minutes just to get logged in and into my inbox and then I couldn't add an entry or edit anything.  I went to bed upset because I couldn't hear the sound of my own voice on the internet.  Well here I am and logged in and it seems that Xanga is dead or maybe it's just me.

1.  I have posted photos of wax statues in my celebrity round-ups before.  I came across this tumblr of people posing with Tom Hanks wax statues.  I am glad I don't go to wax museums because I'd feel greatly ripped off.

2.  Milhouse may be my favorite character on The Simpsons and I think it's because I relate to him so well, specifically his love life.  Well Milhouse has his moments and here they are, Everything's Coming Up Milhouse.

3.  I have quit arguing about Twilight because there is no reasoning with people who think they are vampires.  Thankfully the people at Reasoning with Vampires deal with that and dissect the Twilight novels.

4.  When I was teaching 5th and 6th grades we had DARE in my classroom.  I sat in on the classes because the cop was pretty friendly and I also had some troublemaker students that I wanted to make respected the officer.  It's surprising how much respect a kid will give a person who has a gun.  Anyway, that year Minnesota was launching a campaign of anti-meth ads.  I got so many print ads in my mailbox it was insane.  Meth abuse was horrible up there.  Then in DARE the officer had to have the kids have their parents sign a permission slip to view mugshots of methheads.  I remember all of that because I came across a collection of meth abusers' photos.  Why would people put that in their bodies?

5.  I'm always amazed by actors.  You can have someone like Tom Cruise or Will Smith who play the same character in every movie and have no range and then you can have someone like John C. Reilly who can do comedy, drama, and an awesome show.  Well here is a list of actors with great range.

6.  I remember reading the Hardy Boys in grade school and the language used in the books at that time really didn't phase me but the other day when I picked up a Hardy Boys novel and read it I had misgivings and questions.  My chief question was, were they gay.  Thanks to this wonderful site called Google, I found this article about the sexuality of the Hardy Boys and the language used therein.

7.  Do you have an extra $800,000 laying around and don't know how to use it?  Well for that price you could buy your very own town in South Dakota.  Granted it's a ghost town but it's still your very own town.  I wonder if you buy it if you can change the name.  The only drawback...it's South Dakota.

8.  In all my time of having my own mailing address, I have only for 4 years had a mailman come to my house to make deliveries.  The rest of the time I've had a P.O. box where I get my mail.  I've always wondered about those postal workers delivering my mail.  Do they walk on my grass?  Well here is a postal worker explaining about how they do their job.

9.  Here's a handy little guide for superhero fans.  It's the real and fictional addresses of superheroes living in New York City.  Next time I'm in NEw York, I'm going to those places and banging on doors to demand talking with the superhero and not the alter-ego.

10.  What the fuck has Obama done so far?

11.  What in the fuck has Obama done so far?

12.  What the fuck has Wisconsin governor Scott Walker done so far?

I would like to be loved again but I wouldn't want to suffocate.

But I have a headache.

I hate going to the beach.

I think we're exploiting our children far too early these days.  Let's just wait until they turn 18 and they have to make a tough decision when a van filled with cameramen comes rolling by.

I think they're better being insane.  But as the apostle Paul said in the book of Colossians, "Clowns frighten me."

Why is this the American dream?
