Duncan Hines is apparently ambrosia

So today at work I brought in homemade cupcakes. Now when I say homemade cupcakes I of course mean that I made them at my home from a mix in a box, requiring me to dump powder in a bowl, add 3 eggs and some oil and water and mix it until the lumps were gone. Not particularly challenging or dependent on talent.

People at work were raving about them like I was a master chef. It was crazy. I mean they were good, hey, I love a good cupcake, but it was cracking me up. I kept saying, "Thanks, that's very nice, but they're really just from a mix. I didn't do anything special."

Oh, and the frosting? Just a package of cake frosting right off the shelf. Not even the kind you mix up yourself.

So funny.

Bidets for dummies

OK, so I'm with this guy and I think it's really funny that it's so hard to find the info. You would think that this would be in a travel guide of some sort other than the "for dummies" variety, but apparently not.

Well if you're not eating at the moment, check out eHow or WikiHow for answers.

Litter in space

No, really. This is one of those things that gets me all amped up and makes my brain kind of melt a little.

Do we not learn any lessons? We're now going to fill outer space with junk? Or to be more accurate, surround the planet with junk until we look like a floating garbage barge?

Why are people so ridiculously dumb?

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
