Welcome to all visitors coming from 9rules! Feel free to take a look around. But first of all, I need to clarify that I’m more like a myth than a legend. 😉 For those of you who haven’t heard of it already, 9rules just released a community feature a couple of days ago where you…… Continue reading Come Together

The theme for today’s links is randomness, because I don’t think I could link one item to another. Okay, so randomness is already everyday’s theme. Shush. According to the Journal of Infectious Diseases, after reaching Moscow in 1812, Napoleon’s Grande Armee was not really finished off by hunger, battle wounds, and low morale, but rather…… Continue reading I’ll Be Watching You

Soothsayers/naysayers — from business gurus to Bible decoders — have predicted all sorts of things for 2006, from the not-so-bright future of Google to a giant asteroid crash, in addition to 17 named tropical storms, nine hurricanes and five major, high-wind hurricanes. Well, I guess there’s only one way to find out! While grownups are…… Continue reading Happy 2006!

The news agency Reuters did a survey to find out where Santa lives and concluded that Santa lives in Iceland because Santa Claus of Iceland was the only one responded to the survey question.

May the heater keeps you warm indoor and your coat keeps you warm outdoor. Once again,…… Continue reading Winter is Officially Here

My dearest, darling husband Troy turns 30 today. Now he is in the same age group with me, ie. old. Bwahahaha!!! Go wish him a happy birthday! Well, if his site is up anyway. We forgot to renew his domain. Ooops! It’s been renewed since so it should be back up soon if it is…… Continue reading Happy Big Three-Oh!

Danger due to [fill in the blank]. Use your imagination. What a linklogger to do when del.icio.us is down? Get panic, of course. But I’ve got over it. Finally. Did a bit of Christmas shopping this past weekend. I wouldn’t advise you to shop for CDs and DVDs at Best Buy. Their pricing is outrageous.…… Continue reading Not So del.icio.us

We had to put our Betta fish Finnegan to sleep yesterday. It was not an easy decision, but he seemed to be in so much pain that we just had to do it. It was more than a little upsetting to say the least. The picture above was taken a few days ago when he…… Continue reading Goodbye, Finnegan!

Contrary to what I said in yesterday’s post, I didn’t stay in. The weather wasn’t fantastic but what the hell. My mind was set. I was going. When I walked to the bus stop, I couldn’t see the sidewalk because it was covered thickly with snow. That was one of the few times I was…… Continue reading Screw the Weather
