Humpish Day Bric-a-brac
I totally don't get how THIS kind of figure is generated. However, it would seem to suggest I quit my day job. Except I think this number is in Confederate dollars.
Let's see: what else is in the grab bag this morning: Here's Mr. Angry -- Mrs. Calm. You have to squint your eyes a little to make the transformation happen. Neat. I'm going to try this next time I violate the rules around the Ponderosa and Mrs. Angry is grimacing down at me. ((Squint! Mrs. Nice!))
Lose your way in this world, did ya? Compass gone wonky of a sudden? Regain your bearings cartographically: here's a very nicely done page of nested world maps. I put it in my Google Earth folder so I can find nearby cities to zoom in on near geological or biological features. Mark this one HANDY.
Should I worry? For the past two days, I haven't been able to double click and close Google News or Google Mail in Firefox. All other tabs will close as they should. Is Mr. Google trying to prepare me for the next big step: All Google All The Time? Weird.
And, before I slink off to my rock pile and start making gravel, here (for those of you of a certain age and dementedness) is a gallery of Mad Magazine covers through the ages. And in keeping with my previous post in which I told myself to chill, just let me add "What? Me Worry?"
Comments
nice to be able to waste some time exploring some interesting sites. by the way my blog is worth zip and I remember some of the older mad covers in fact I still have some of them.

Fred,
Thought you might find the following link interesting:

I snorkelled for the first time in 2002 in Captain Cook's Bay, Big Island, HI. Until then, I never knew how wonderful the marine world could be. I wish I could spend half of each year at the ocean (sans hurricanes) and the other half in the mountains.

I wonder how they are valuing the blogs too. Mine said $82K and I cannot imagine why!

When my Mother was alive, we would have almost-nightly phone calls concerning the day. The almost-last thing my Mom would say to me before hanging up the phone was, "Now don't forget to worry about those asteroids too." As in, I didn't worry enough about things I couldn't control anyway (gg).
Which is why I think www.stuffonmycats.com is important. Lures my mind away from asteroids.
The last thing she would say is that she loved me. THAT was the best thing ever. Period. I still sometimes have the thought, "I need to call my Mom." So I do, just not with the phone (gg). Nine years dead in a few weeks. It really doesn't get any easier. Wish I could hug that little body of hers again.
Think I'll go hug Luna Perfect Puppy Dog now. Hugs to you Fred! (Loved the "before I slink off to my rock pile and start making gravel..." line. LOL on THAT one!! I AM stealing that for use somewhere on my blog in and in my life. Toooo funny.)

Ha. My blog is apparently worth nothing. Figures.

My blog is worth 0.00 (I checked).
