Spencer...on fire!

No Spencer has not actually caught on fire. Though sometimes I wish he would. It's just that I found this old picture I drew on paint when I was angry at him. And here it is...






Skype

Everybody needs to get Skype! It rocks awesomely!!! It is an internet calling system that allows you to either call an actual phone anywhere in the world for a cheap fee or call other skype users anywhere in the world with all the same connection for free. If you are only calling other skype users it won't ever cost you any money. I have a webcam and microphone which is really nice but if you only have a mic or don't have either it's okay because you can just chat instead. Another great detail is that you can have conference calls with an unlimited amount of people. So if some of us are on we can all talk! I really really like skype! It's great!!!! For instance, just last week or so I was talking to Sophia and we both could see eachother because we had mics and webcams it was fantastic because we hadn't seen eachother for so long since she's in China!

If anybody wants to get skype the download is at this address please at least read some of the info on the page: http://www.skype.com/download/

Also if you do get skype email me and tell me your username!

White Tiger

I wanted you guys to be able to see this because I'm very proud of it. This is a picture I sketched of a white tiger. I did not trace, it was done free hand looking at apicture on google. After a while I stopped looking at the google pic and did the markings and so on on my own.

Also I did draw it the same as the picture but some setting on my scanner changed and now it only shows the top thin half of the picture.

Useless Information

Has anyone else been to the new Books-A-Million bookstore? My family went recently and I purchased 'The Book of Useless Information' and 'The Ultimate Book of Useless Information' I learned of the first from Laura and decided to get the ultimate book and the original book. I have found both very intriguing.



For instance a couple funny/interesting tidbits from the book...




  • Workers at Matsushita Electric Company in Japan beat dummies of thier foreman with bamboo sticks to let off steem.

  • Hindu men believe it is unlucky to marry a third time and that they could avoid the misfortune by marrying a tree. The tree(the third wife)was then burned, freeing the man to marry again.

  • If you bring a racoons head to the Henniker, New Hampshire, town hall, you are entitled to recieve ten dollars from the town.

  • There's a cemetery town in California called Colma; it's ratio of dead to living people is 750 to 1.

  • In 1983, a Japanese artist made a copy of the Mona Lisa completely out of toast.

I have really enjoyed reading the book.

LOL! I got prank called!

Some people just don't know what they're doing! I got prank called just now! I was hoping to find out who it was to give em' some pointers because really the whole accent thing never works. I would say to anyone out there just try to sound adult. Plus they talked so fast I couldn't hear what they said so I had to ask them like five times if they'd repeat themselves. Overall they didn't do so well on the calling scale. I'd give them a four or a five.

Ebay Addiction

This is just a tiny update I know but it's what you're gonna get because I haven't had a 'ton' of interesting stuff happen to me. Well now that that has been covered lets get down to the point. I now have an addiction to ebay. I'm pretty sure because every time I get on the comeputer I check the lowest priced things I want to buy on ebay. And sure thats fine but I check back all the time. It's pretty fun though because there is so much cool stuff you can find on there. Well thats it. Oh oh oh ya . I forgot to mention two other short things. This morning my mom and I went to the Farmers market. If haven't heard of it well it's a bunch of tables all with coverings/tent thingies. They are grouped in rows that you can walk along to look at what everyone has in store. At each of the tables the seller sets up their wares. Everything there has to do with homemade stuff mostly food but also some lotions, soaps, and candles. I love the whole atosphere of the place and I always enjoy going. This year we bought a blueberry pie, a mini angel food cake, some salsa dip, and two tomatoes. The one other thing I need to say is that today I'm going to clean out my dresser drawer and my closets. All of which are filled with stuff and it is going to take forever! ...or at least the whole weekend..or week. .. ... .. I'll get back to you on it later in the day once we, my mom and I, have gotten started.
