Read on the Web
I complained that there wasn't anything interesting to share, so this week the internet gods have given me quite a few tidbits to chew over. So here we go:Archaeologists found a tattooed mummy in Peru that they think is a female warrior. How cool is that? The picture is kind of gross, and doesn't show any tattoos, but the body is amazingly well preserved. Am I the only one who geeks out about this stuff?
When you've been dating someone for awhile, the date-dates tend to be non-existant. Or kind of hum-drum, dinner and a movie. Not that I'm against hum-drum, dinner and a movie dates. I like them. But sometimes you want to do something different. MSN came up with a list of great non-dinner dates that actually are pretty great. A lot of these lists suck. This one doesn't.
In a surprising twist, Americans aren't the "rudest, most boring people on earth"; the French are! And here we thought we were the only ones France hated. My favorite line comes from Jerome Touze, the founder of Where Are You Now (WAYN), who conducted the survey:
"I think our romantic 'moodiness' is misunderstood..."HA! Romantic moodiness! That's like saying my PMS-fueled rampage is misunderstood! hee hee! why do I get so much glee out of this? We'll never know, I guess.
Also in humorous news, Tommy Hilfiger and Axl Rose got into a little tiff. Can you believe this shit? Axl whines about being smacked in the arm by Tommy Hilfiger. Jesus Axl, aren't you supposed to be tough?
Since we're talking about celebrities, Mischa Barton says she was happy about being killed off on the O.C. So were we Mischa, so were we. I liked Marissa for all of 4 episodes, way back in Season 1. Then she just got annoying. And then more annoying, if that's possible. Oh, and I love that she's all, maybe I'll take a course in acting. Yes, Mischa, do, because you really need it. (Man, I am bitchy today!)
And finally, some fun! I don't know where all this stuff comes from, but Google Reader provides me with all sorts of goodness. Including this birthday calculator. It's not just a lame, "You were born on a Thursday and are an Aries" thing either. It tells you the date of various holidays that year, and even how old you are in dog years. Pretty cool, good for 5 minutes of procrastination.
And that's what I have for you today. Enjoy!
