The Ramblings of a Cuteasaurus

Random things for your amusement

1st) A cute and morbid little illustrated story called the Gashlycrumb Tinies. It starts "A is for Amy who fell down the stairs/ B is for Basil assaulted by bears..." I think you get the idea.

2nd) As a stress-reliever, check out this website with a sheet of those packing bubbles you can pop. Sure, it's not hard, but it is kinda entertaining.

3rd) Ellen has been giving stuff away for the past 12 days on her talkshow. This person in a gingerbread man suit brings out that day's prize and everyone in the audience gets one. Anyway, today was day number 12 and also the day the identity of the gingerbread man was revealed. Ellen gave a "hint" that he could dance and I figured it'd be some pseudo-famous person I might have heard of. To my surprise, it was Justin Timberlake. While this may be entertaining in and of itself, it gets better. Justin told Ellen that she "owed him" and gave her something to put on, kinda a clothy white barrel thing. She looked confused and he told her that now she was a glass of milk. As soon as he said that the music came on and they started to dance (if you didn't know, the Ellen show is BIG on dancing). And what song could they play that would be Christmas-y enough for a gingerbread cookie and milk? MC Hammer's Can't Touch This. At this point, Justin starts dancing like MC Hammer while still in a Gingerbread Man Suit. And Ellen's going at it in her Milk Constume. I'm not sure when I've seen something so silly and cute on tv. I'll see if I can find a clip online...but for now, your imagination will have to suffice.
