Bring Out Your Inner Art

Written by: John

I really hate art. I think I hate it because I suck at it. Honestly, I couldn’t think of anything I hate to do more than to do art. I’d rather slit my wrists and drip blood on something rather than do art. Although, the dripping blood might be considered art.

Well, luckily I don’t have to do art. Amazingly, I did find this really neat website which I loved. I guess it’s a form of art. Try out this great website for art. It’s amazingly addicting. Maybe I do love art.

Flying to New York for Physical Therapy

Written by: John

I had a friend who flew for Physical therapy in New York. That seemed like a long way to fly for Physical therapy.

I guess my wife is right that everything is better in New York. I prefer to say that everything is better that comes from New York. That’s why I married her.

Shopping Cart Art

Written by: John

I found a very interesting experiment in art by some canadian. Here’s what it says on the website I found it on:

Dumped supermarket trolleys litter our rivers and canals. Now one artist is rescuing them… to create these incredible wire sculptures that celebrate our water wildlife…

While I don’t care how they get the shopping carts I am impressed with their artistic ability. Take a look at just one of my favorites:

Check out the rest of the shopping cart art. That’s what I call art.

Addicted to Car and Driver Magazine

Written by: John

I work with a doctor that is just completely fascinated with cars. I swear the man is addicted to Car and Driver Magazine. Sure, I can see why someone can love all the new technologies that are being used in cars. However, he reads and looks at different cars all day long. I think he prefers cars to women. I guess that’s cool to have a passion.

Maybe I’m just jealous that I don’t drive as nice a car as him. I guess I’ll have to start reading Car and Driver Magazine too.

Adsense.com Not Owned by Google

Written by: John

The owners of the domain adsense.com have been fielding hundreds of customer service e-mails and phone calls regarding Google’s AdSense program since the advertising service launched in March 2003.

It turns out that Google doesn’t own the domain adsense.com despite Google having the very popular Google Adsense.

I’m completely surprised that a company can’t use the power of that domain to generate more revenue for them as a company. This seems like a no brainer. I did find it funny that they applied to participate in Google’s Adsense program and were denied.

Funny/Fake Signatures on Your Credit Card Receipts

Written by: John

I know a number of times I’ve wondered how many people look at the signatures on the credit card receipts. I know I didn’t look when I was working those jobs. The restaurant is even worse. What if I left without a signature at all. I’m not sure there’s much they could do, but forge my signature.

Well, someone has posted examples of signatures they did that people accepted. My favorite was the one where it is just a bunch of lines and not even close to a signature. The Walmart example is funny too.

Funny Comments on People’s Searches

Written by: John

I found a recent post called Mortgage, Insurance, Ditech com, DUI Attorney, Mesothilioma Lawyers, Auto Insurance Quotes California on Smuggle Me blog that talks about a number of search terms and why people would shell out the dough for these different search terms.

My favorite part of this post is when they talk about California drivers and their need for auto insurance. I also fully agree with the DUI attorney comments.

Should This Guy Really Have a Gun?

Written by: John

Another popular Wordpress blog had a picture of a guy with a gun. I don’t think he should really have a gun. Sorry to be so judgmental. I think its the eyes that kill me.

Inspirational, Funny, Interesting Quotes

Written by: John

I ran across a large set of quotes(http://www.onlinediscountmart.com/quotable-quotes.html). They are nicely grouped into a lot of categories like Birthday Quotes, Inspirational Quotes, Love Quotes, and just about every quote I think possible.

Here’s an example of one of the birthday quotes:

“I’m sixty years of age. That’s 16 Celsius.” George Carlin

I like the birthday ones because they were so funny.

Here’s an example of a post about mothers.

“God could not be everywhere, and so He made mothers.” -Jewish Proverb

That is an oldy, but a goody. Quotes have an interesting affect on you when you read them. I prescribe one quote a day to keep the psychiatrist away.
