High Falutin’ Jello

 
By now you know how much I loathe jello. Be it cherry, grape, lemon, or lime flavoured in bright hues, with or without fruit, shaped like a fish aquarium, eyeballs, or Canada’s flag, I hate it. It’s rubbery chewy texture sickens me and I can’t stand the weird over-sweet chemically taste. I cheerfully make do [...]

Jello shot recipes (or, why do you want this? Don’t you know you can choke on jello?)

I noticed in my blog stats that some less than cautious individuals want to suck back tiny cups of vodka infused jello.
Why?
Picture it, you are drunk. Then someone hands you a tiny clear plastic cup holding a cylindrical shaped hunk of jello. You sucked it back eagerly and then WHOAH! It slides down your windpipe [...]

I can’t be bothered to watch American Idol

I’m not a big fan of cabaret style amateur singing. While I agree with Simon Cowell’s assessment of the talent (this isn’t grade two — not everyone can be on stage on talent show night), it would be nice if he purchased less t-shirts. Odds are Randy Jackson has some cool stories from his Journey [...]

Bonjour Mr. Winkle. Je t’aime!

It’s a well known fact among my friends that I love animals — cats and dogs especially, but I love all of the urban, forest, jungle, desert, polar cap, deep sea, and mountain critters.
But I hadn’t met Mr. Winkle.
Ohh! Mr. Winkle! Your sweet fuzzy face makes me smile! Your floppy pink tongue is the most [...]

Technology Lust: Oh, if this were a real cellphone!

  
(Thank you, Xavier, for the youtube link!)
I would buy this in a heart beat. C’mon, it’s a toaster, a heater, a defibrillator, an iron, blow dryer, shaver, and AND it has a self destruct mode. Sounds wonderful!Much better than my current cell. Stupid thing. I can’t hear it ring (yes, the [...]

Is World Peace Possible?

It takes a lot of people a lot of work to settle differences that are decades old.But how about hundreds of centuries old? Yep, this cat and dog have settled a species war that goes back many thousands of years.   Good work guys! Maybe you can attend a few peace conferences and share [...]

I’m Feeling a Little Blah Today

The weather has finally changed from happy sun-filled summer to chilly, dreary, damp autumn.
And it makes me feel like…. blecch!
It’s taking longer for the sun to appear in the morning, and it’s diving beneath the horizon much sooner. I don’t like it. I’ve never liked autumn. It reminds me that winter will soon be here [...]

Do You Sing To Your Cat?

Today, let’s all sing to a cat — your cat, your neighbour’s cat, your imaginary cat, a cat awaiting adoption. In fact, sing to a cat while you’re adopting her!

The Hasselhoff Question

Why?
Someone put a lot of time and creativity into this video. And that beggars the question, why?
This talented individual could be at the forefront of the avant garde movement. A real artist vision could be in the offing, but instead he or she is hoffing.
The Hoff can’t dance.
The Hoff can’t [...]

This kitten’s antics tire me out from just watching.

Where does he get his energy, and how can I tap into it

Before I go take my nap, I’m joining Jeremiah the Orange Menace’s Facebook group called “Friends of the Orange Menace”
Great song on this video!
