Things That Make You Say, “What?!”: Weekend Wrap-up

Author: Administrator
Category: What?!, People Say The Funniest Things, People Do The Strangest Things

1. In its continuing dedication to reporting on “People Who Are Famous For Absolutely No Reason That Anyone Can See”, People.com brought us the breaking news that Carmen Electra is making sure to find time in her busy schedule to address the heretofore unmet need for “her own new line of portable stripper poles so ladies can get a work out Carmen style.”

FINALLY! At last I know what our living room has been missing for all these years!

2. I knit a wool hat, which I was then supposed to shrink, or “felt” down to the proper size in my washing machine. Unfortunately, it now resembles nothing so much as a soft, pink, Frisbee.

When I was describing this to my mom (who is also a knitter) and discussing my problems with shaping she replied, “Oh! If only I had a human head, I would give it to you!.”

      The whole point of being alive is to evolve into the complete person
      you were intended to be. I believe you can only do this when you stop
      long enough to hear the whisper you might have drowned out, that small
      voice compelling you toward the kind of work you'd be willing to do
      even if you weren't paid. And what do you do once you turn down the
      noise of your life and heed that call? You face the biggest challenge
      of all: to have the courage to seek your big dream regardless of what
      anyone else says or thinks. You are the only person alive who can see
      your big picture -- and even you can't see it all.
      --Oprah Winfrey
