More tidbits from NPR
In China, female security guards are increasing in popularity. Yay for kick-ass women! On a side note, the Chinese gov't does not recognize the legality of personal security or bodyguard businesses, so this one company refers to themselves as providing "Business Etiquette". "Excuse me, sir, it is quite rude of you to try to kill my employer. I shall now politely break your kneecaps and then introduce your septum to your brain." XD XD
A few years ago, thinkgeek.com had a flash drive that was inside a rubber ducky -- a red, horned devil ducky. I really wanted it b/c of the ducky, but it was not worth the $100 they were charging (plus the drive was only 256 MB, a lot back then, but I knew that would be obsolete soon). Well, on NPR this morning, they were covering a novelty store (that also sells things off their website) in Seattle and amongst the products they listed was the devil ducky!!! As soon as I got to work, I hopped online and yup, there they are!! **dances** You can get 2 for under 10 bucks! And there are different colors! And mini-ones! And pirate ones! And ninja ones!!! **floats in devil ducky heaven**
They also talked about Dick Cheney's blood clot. One bit struck me as funny (I'm sorry, I don't remember the medical term they used) "The blood clot could move to his lung where it becomes a [medical term], a blood clot in the lung." o.O
A 17 year old, in Cleveland I think, was accused of rape and was going to be tried as a juvenille. So he then goes and shoots his accuser with a shotgun, and now is being tried as an adult for either assault or attempted murder or something like that. Does anyone else just wonder about his lack of brains and logic? I'm reminded of the quote, "How does your mind even form human speech?"
You'll die by being Murdered.
You will be murdered... namely cause you sure know how to push people's buttons.

Well, that was a disturbing quiz. It's mildly annoying that the quiz result pic isn't showing up properly. The little sun should be in the "murdered" category.

Okay, when I posted this at work, I swear the sun was showing up in the wrong place. -_-;
