Poll:Who Eats Better

Update: I guess barley gave me away. Of course my cat eats better stuff. Tomorrow she will have “Saucy Seafood Bake With Rice and Garden Greens“; I will just have a salad.

How Is My Driving?

I always wondered if anyone ever called a number on the back of a vehicle, I personally don’t know anybody who called. Are these phone numbers real?

Poll Of The Week: Who Should Be The Pirate Spokesperson

Pirates came a long way since the days of the “Treasure Island“, they now have a spokesman.
“We are still surrounded by foreign ships. There is 24-hour surveillance, helicopters are flying overhead, but no action has been taken against us,” the pirates’ spokesman Sugule Ali said over satellite telephone from the ship.

Poll Of The Week: Who Called?

Apparently there are technologies [...]

Many of you don’t know that I am a romantic at heart. The problem is that my heart is buried under thick layers of fat and who-knows-what-else so it’s hard to tell. You just have to trust me on that. The other day while driving to work I noticed that some schmuck put up a [...]

Poll of The Week: DVD Extras

I already have poll questions for the next two weeks, one of them is dealing with body hair and is a little more controversial, although I am pretty sure I know the answer. So the controversy will have to wait.
The question of the week came up because I can’t recall anybody ever mentioning that they [...]
