Hi, I'm just a crazy writer who spends too much time online.
Creepy Snow Globes
These snow globes seen on InventorSpot are so creepy and strange, they are fantastic. Look at the whole series here.
Just a thought though, as much as kids like snowglobes, it may be a good idea to put these out of their hands. Most kids do not enjoy the thought of getting thrown down a well or eaten by a giant spider.
The Deadliest Catch is releasing their own coffee line, The Deadliest Brew. Yes, you heard that right, the people who catch crabs in the artic want to sell you coffee. I don’t know about you, but I want coffee to remind me of death, tidal waves and rotting fish.
Yum yum.

Like Stealing Lemonade From A Baby
Neatorama informs us of the meanest criminal ever, 18 year-old Steven Tyron. This douche stole money from a little kid’s lemonade stand. Now that’s low.
Neatorama recently wrote a post about the likelihood of a driver having road rage being directly related to the number of bumper stickers on their car. The study performed by the Colorado State University at Fort Collins showed that drivers with bumper stickers were 16% more likely to have road rage than those that didn’t. Things such as car model and condition were shown to have no impact on the likelihood a driver has road rage.
A bumper sticker on the painted trunk of a vehicle may help the paint to look like new and it will be less faded. Unless the paint quality on your vehicle is incredibly low, the decals are highly unlikely to remove or affect the pain on the car anyway, to make your own and give them a personal touch, try this printer for stickers.
These buttons were being sold at the Republican convention. Seriously. People need a beat down sometimes. Did I miss something, is Goldwater running again? Is it 1953?
I bet Obama, Japan would be pissed, they need Barack to win so they can cash in on the tourism.
A Story Via Letters
I wrote this story a while ago, but I think it still depicts our modern society and human vs. corporate interactions. Let me know what you think if you read it all -it is rather long.

How many of you knew that the Army recently hired its first ever Chief Marketing Officer? If that isn’t bad enough, Mr. ideas man decided to launch a fun arcade type of place to show kids how cool the Army is.
While I am not against advertising in anyway, tricking kids into thinking military service is fun so you can ship them off to Iraq is not cool. Not cool at all.
