I actually saw this while I was in Chicago during the winter.

My husband and I just returned from an amazing trip to the Florida Keys. While we were there, we swam with stingrays.

I have always loved stingrays and could not pass up the opportunity to interact with them. Before we swam with them, we fed them. They feasted upon squid. You are told how to hold the squid between your fingers in a fist. One of my squid slipped out, but was sucked by one of the stingrays. I said that they were like little Roombas of the sea, sucking up whatever they want to eat. Apparently, one of the rays did not like my reference and bit me when I tried to feed it. I have a nice gash on my middle finger that I have been proudly showing off. Look! I was attacked by a stingray!

Endlessly amusing...

I've heard of Democats, but never a Demodog. Here's one for you.

My family has had Jack Russell Terriers for years. I want one of my own. Their wit and determination can keep you amused for hours at a time.

I just returned from a trip from Texas. While in San Antonio I discovered a new cuisine, the Puffy Taco. It's like a regular taco except the corn tortilla is very thick and puffy - thus, the name Puffy Taco.

Warning: Too many Puffy Tacos = Puffy Person

And, Puffy Tacos dance too...

Clamhead, this one is for you.

This ad gave me all sorts of nightmares last night. Thank you Pioneer!

One of my fears as a child, which has continued to follow me into adulthood is my fear of Public Service Announcements. I'm not sure why, but PSA's made in the 1960's/1970's were just plain creepy and sometimes very scary. My husband was "forced" to watch this one for safety training at his company. And, since he loves me so much, he decided to send it to me. Enjoy!

I recently came across this posting from the Herman Miller Company. Herman Miller is a famous high-end, architecturally based office furniture manufacturer. They have had a history of creating furniture based on designs by Eames, Neutra, etc. Apparently, my company's Toronto office was done by Herman Miller.

These pictures don’t do the office justice. They have three-dimensional artwork and designer lamps that you would find in a museum.

When I work there, they also put me up at the Hotel Intercontinental in Yorkville (Toronto's equivalent to Beverly Hills). I love Canadians!

I can't help but feel sorry for these gas cans. Poor gas cans.
