Miscellaneous Wednesday

**  There have been a lot of commercials on lately for those gitantic Vermont Teddy Bears.  The giant ones.  Those commercials are creepy.  The women look like they'd rather be humping the teddy bear than the guys who gave it to them.   I don't know.  They really like their teddy bears.  Weird.

** I'm finally getting used to getting up at 4am.  Up until now, from about 5-8am, I would welcome death.  Now it's not so bad.  Still sucky, but it's better.

** I watched Chernobyl Diaries the other day.  I thought it was pretty good.  It got a lot of hate on IMDB, but it entertained me for an hour and a half.  What do the haters want?  If it holds my attention, it gets an A+ in my book.

** One of my favorite pastimes is watching commercials with the sound off and trying to guess the product or service being advertised.  You'd be surprised how many commercials could be appropriate for a vast array of things.  Is a commercial for tampons or an all inclusive Bahamian Resort?  Viagra or an Investment Firm?  It's fun.  Try it. 

** I read in the news that a girl from somewhere in Eastern Europe, I think, tried to commit suicide because she failed math, chemistry and physics.  She laid down across railroad tracks, intending for the train to kill her, but only managed to cut off both her legs.  How horrible that she thought failing physics would be such a disappointment to her parents that being cut in two by a train was preferable.  I can certainly empathise with anyone who is suicidial, but not from failing physics and chemistry.  Honestly, I wouldn't even feel bad if I flunked physics. It would be expected.  I got off the math bus a long time ago. 

Happy Wednesday!
