Headlines + Humor


First, the humor...

1) I have no idea what 49Media is, but their webbot found my 4xFour Meme and featured Bloggin' Outloud on their daily roundup yesterday. Weird. (Caveat scriptum - Blogger Beware: other sites at 49Media are definitely not G for great or PG for pretty good.)

2) I am a goddess. I am not an html hack, I can't program anything let alone my microwave, and yet I am a goddess. Why? For having solved a major challenge that Shamalama didn't even realize he had. And for that he is forever in my debt. (:tongue-in-cheek:) Do not quiver in my presence, I am benevolent. Share in the riches of my bounty.

3) Image Source: Laugh Out Loud found by a random google search. I thought it was funny.

  1. See, this is why /I'm/ the only one in the family who should go by the name "Lyn".

  2. Haha, you're right of course. But a little sexual ambiguity is a good thing in the 'sphere. Stops lurkers from knowing everything about you on the first pass! :-) lol, Lyn (not the goddess)

  3. The real question is: are you on a mountain top? Because only then will we know that you've got it.

    (For those in the dark, think Bananarama.)
