Since I spend most of my day driving, I have become addicted to podcasts, which I can play in the platypus to my heart’s content because it will play CDRWs with MP3 files. I try to pass things I have listened to on to Joy but invariably forget (or garble) the details.

The thing is, what invariably happens is that my short attention span and overall click-happy tendencies often lead me into a maze of increasingly strange subject matter.

This clip makes Joy hysterical-weepy-giggly every time she watches it.

I guess the updated WordPress must be a little more video-friendly… the last time I tried to embed a clip the entire page self-destructed.

Wired Gallery: The Most Curious Canned Goods Found Online

Warning: this link is not for the squeamish. If the thought of canned duck fetuses sends you running, you might skip it. One of the comments kinda sums it up: “I just threw up in my mouth.”

Someone where Joy works introduced us to this one…

Cats that look like Hitler

The site name, I think, is pretty self explanatory so I’ll just leave it at that. :-)

That last EBay link someone sent me reminded me that I had meant to post a link to Disturbing Auctions a few weeks back and forgot… I think. ‘My bad’ if this is a repeat.
