Okay, I get the concept of the Window’s 7 ads: Let’s appeal to average people and show that we listen to our customers (and fixed the abysmal aborted fetus that was Window’s Vista…)  But I totally don’t get their billboard ads.  One features a woman making a really retarded face as she steps into the traffic, and this one features a guy mid french-fry bite.  Is it because average people eat French Fries?  I mean, maybe… but why couldn’t it have just been a guy sitting at a table with a plate of fries in front of him?  This photo is a remarkably unattractive photo of a moderately attractive guy.  I feel that if this photo were tagged of him on Facebook, he would untag himself.  So why on earth was this deemed giant-billboard material?

Ergo, my Mac makes me happy.

What should I do with this bear??

I am in the process of trying to get rid of as much stuff as possible in order to make my coming move as easy as possible.  I’ve decided to give most of my old stuffed animals (that I’ve been using as decorations so are basically in new condition) to a local charity that provides toys to under privileged kids.  This bear was given to me by an ex-boyfriend; his dog chewed off the eyes.

Here’s my conundrum: Since this was given to me by an ex and plays “let me call you sweetheart” when you squeeze it’s paw, I have no real desire to keep this bear.  The problem is the bear is eyeless, and therefore won’t be accepted by any charities.  And I just can’t bring myself to throw away stuffed animals, especially helpless, blind ones!  I realize this is a complex stemming from childhood whereby I considered my toys to have souls… but now I don’t know what to do!  Do I keep the bear just because it has special needs?  Do I euthanize him by sending him to the dump??? Ack!  Help.

What would you do?

Good Luck Rich College Kids!

Someone in Boston is disgruntled enough to cut out articles from the newspaper and post them in the T accompanied by confused rants.

Okay, okay, this was taking with my iPhone while I was trying not to look too obvious about photographing it, so the quality ain’t great. Basically, what it says is “Good Luck, rich College kids! Hope mommy and daddy gave you a trust fund. How are you going to be a yuppy now?  HAHA!”  And, of course, this is exemplified by underlining the fact that unemployment has reached a 16-year-high.  ZOINKS!

A sign of the horrible horrible times.  Guess I’ll go put on my apocalypse suit now, just in case.
