If your office is ever taken hostage, be sure to have these common office supplies in your drawer so you can make yourself a vicious bow and arrow.

That’s some serious bling-bling. Here’s the company’s site for more information on the phone. Thanks Desiree for the link.

Just make your coffee with RedBull, like this crazy dude did. Wonder if he’s slept since?

There are typically more crash deaths today than any other day of the year. I’ll be thinking of this on my drive home from the office today (yes, I am at work). Thankfully, I saw a pile of State Police officers on the commute this morning, so I’m hoping they’ll be back again this evening.

I’m going to have a lovely, sleepless, evening, I’m sure, as our house is about a half-mile from where they shoot off the fireworks, so the neighborhood is always packed with drunken idiots trying to remove themselves from the gene pool but never succeed. Thanks to a commenter from last year, I’m thinking about putting up a sign that says “You Wake ’em, You Take ’em” (in reference to my 2 and 5 year old daughters — the 5 year old will be watching the show on the Butte, but the 2 year old is staying in bed).

Meanwhile, here are the virtual fireworks I linked to last year. Be safe tonight.

This sounds like a sticky mess.

An attempt to erect the world’s largest popsicle in a city square ended with a scene straight out of a disaster film, but much stickier.

The 25-foot-tall, 17 1/2-ton popsicle treat of frozen Snapple unexpectedly quickly melted in the midday sun Tuesday, flooding Union Square in downtown Manhattan with pink fluid that sent pedestrians scurrying for higher ground.

Firefighters closed off several streets and used hoses to wash away the sugary goo as the 35,000-pound, Kiwi-Strawberry flavored pop gushed thousands of gallons of liquid.

While that’s an ugly mess, it could’ve been a lot worse.

Make sure you give them one of these stylish swimsuits.

 

Thanks to Barney for making me nearly lose my breakfast this morning.

I really hope this wasn’t on the menu. Thanks Barney for the link.
