Just because

Hello everyone, I threw this together just before I left for my vacation. I wanted to leave you with something to do while I was gone.

Have I mentioned how much I like feedback? Please drop me a note sometime so I know who is still checking in.

On with the show...

The Smithsonian Natural History Museum put out its 'Nature's Best' list of photographs. The theme was 'Experience Nature Through the Art of Photography'.

Where was this list back in February when I needed it? 'Ten Ways Being a Geek Makes You More Attractive'. Yes, they are talking about me!!

10. You're passionate. [I knew that]
9. You're very articulate. [Wha?]
8. You've got your own stuff going on. [Computers, scouts and home repair!!!]
7. You fix stuff. [Computers, scouts and homes!]
6. You make good money. [What? Why haven't I heard about this!!!]
5. You listen to good music. [Well its good to me.]
4. Geek humor is the best humor. [Is there any other kind?]
3. You geek out on more than just your computer. [comics, sci-fi, coins, stamps...]
2. It's hip to be geek. [I knew it, now where's my money!!!]
1. You're probably very smart. [Not smart enough to get my money!]

I would believe this list if it were true.

This is a very clever web ad called 'Vote Different'


I geeked out over this all day!

I have seen several works of art by Jen Stark over the last few months.



I love the way she uses everyday objects to make art.


[peek-a-boo]

Check out some more of her work on her website!

It has been a while since I have posted clever ads I have come across. But today I have a few that are worth mentioning.

First is a series called 'Rock Legends by Mini'. Can you tell what they are saying?

[They're getting back together!]


[My mom saw his butt at Lagoon. Yes, bare!]

I felt this next ad was worth posting but I think I will leave the comments to you.

The last item for this pre-vacation post is a sort of follow-up to a few guys I blogged about before Christmas. Without further adieu, 'SpiderSpud'.



Yes, our favorite neighborhood tuber has more than just angry eyes in his back pocket!

That's all for today
