This girl is just mean.  She even says she doesn't want to get him a Wii cause she doesn't want to have to deal with him playing with it.  Nice idea...now you can just deal with him resenting you and playing with his wee instead of you.

*Ooops!

*She lost 54 pounds eating Taco Bell

*Prison Guard asleep on the job-inmates take photos

*Russia wants to send a ship to stop this asteroid from hitting earth.  America's not concerned.

The Jib Jab people have done it again.  They cram most of the important stuff that happened this past year into a 2 minute video.  There's even a shout out to that guy who used to play Quarterback for our Football team.

*The picture that could have saved JFK's life(cause he never would have been president had this come out.)

*10 things your husband should never do

*Michael Jackson's final video(Directed by Spike Lee)

I smacked Murphy once....but it was more of a 'love tap.'  I didn't get sent home, but I do have to stay at least 500 yards away for 2 more months.  Stupid judge.

Would you have eaten this Banana?  You only have a day or two before the shading turns darker and you'll lose the image anyways.  Unless the banana never changes...then it really would be a miracle.  Otherwise it's just a banana my kids would never eat, cause it's got too much black stuff on it.

This can't be real, can it?

Here's your cute fix of the day.  Seriously, just adorable.  Sometimes kids are so unintentionally funny.  Take my 4 year old Hudson.  I got him a nerf gun for Christmas.  Now before you get all freaky like, "Why would you get a four year old a toy gun you terrible parent?"...I grew up playing with fake guns and I'm fine.  In fact, when I was young...the guns didn't come all orange and fake looking.  They were die-cast replicas and looked incredible.  I always pretended to be the good guy catching the bad guy.  So it's not the toy that's the issue....it's the environment they grow up in.  Anyways...after I got him the gun we had the talk about not pointing them at people and only shooting the TV and the Windows(where the darts will stick.) 

Okay, fast forward 3 hours.  We're hooking the new Wii up.  I've never played one, so my 7 year old Britton has to show me how to use it.  She shows me how to create your Mii(which is a digital version of yourself that you end up seeing when you're bowling, or playing Tennis and the other games.)  So Britton and I are Wii Bowling(and she's kicking my but BIG time).  Hudson gets annoyed at Britton for something, picks up his Nerf gun, and proceeds to unload all 6 rounds on the TV at the digital Britton(Mii).  It was so hard not to laugh.  He beat the system.  He shot the TV and Britton without breaking a rule.  Kinda proud of him.

*Google Maps is the best thing ever.  Thank you Street view!

*Favorite Christmas gifts of all time

*Grant and Jolly ice McCarthy.....brrrrrrrr.

*Star Wars shoes from Addidas...the merchandising just won't stop

Aerosmith's Steven Tyler has checked himself into a Rehab facility for addiction to prescription painkillers.  He released a statement to People.com late Tuesday night that said in part:

"With the help of my family and team of medical professionals, I am taking responsibility for the management of my pain and am eager to be back on the stage and in the recording studio with my bandmates Joe Perry, Joey Kramer, Tom Hamilton and Brad Whitford."  Steven went on to tell People:

"I love Aerosmith; I love performing as the lead singer in Aerosmith," adding "I am grateful for all of the support and love I am receiving and am committed to getting things taken care of."

This is called "Aggressive Caroling."  It's my new favorite thing.  Makes me want to bite the head off our Christmas Turkey while it's still alive.

The other night we talked about the worst Christmas gift you've ever gotten.  When I was married, my wife was really upset I bought her lawn furniture and a big fan one year.  But see...she can't sleep without a fan and we needed one.  Plus she always complained about not having nice outside furniture for our patio.  I thought I was doing great.  Apparantly that sort of thing is less of a 'gift', and more of a thursday trip to Wal-mart 'hey can you help me grab the stuff I picked up at the store' kinda thing.  CNN has come up with a way to deal with it if your Husband/Boyfriend gets you a lame gift.

YepYep.com has come up with a list of the 10 most irritating people of 2009.  Miley Cyrus made the list at number 2.  Brett Favre didn't even make they cut, so they must not have read this!  Kanye made this list, so did Chris Brown....but no Taylor Swift?  No Octomom?  No Tiger Woods?  Who was number 1?

Extreme Makeover can build a house in 7 days.  This guy can film a bunch of Youtube videos about how he's not working very hard on the house they've been building for a few months now in about 7 days.  Nice.

Wrapping gifts is the thing I dislike most about Christmas.  If it were up to me(which I guess it is, but I don't think I can get away with it) I'd just put all the gifts under the tree Christmas Eve unwrapped....the right side would be all Britton's and the left would be all Hudson's.  So there's no way I'd ever do this(wasn't this done on the Office one year?).

I've heard of the Upside Down Christmas tree thing before, but I still don't know if I quite get it.  Is it just to be different?  Why not a nose ring like every other 16-26 year old in America instead?

I'm not sure if this ones gonna work.  If the tree is made out of boxes...what are the presents?  Little trees?  That might work.

This one makes the most sense.  Cheap, easy, and lots of room for packages(this is starting to sound like a great set up for a "Kinda like my prom date..." line).

Another sign that Video Games run our lives. 

I like that with this particular tree....you wouldn't have to worry about it catching on fire.  Plus my cats wouldn't go anywhere near it.
