6-foot-tall blue cat with gold whiskers


I feel bad for the guy, I really do but this is just hillarious. A Man suffered injuries from being tackled by a 6-foot-tall blue cat with gold whiskers (aka the mascot for the Indiana Pacers). On one hand I have to laugh at the guy for having the funniest attacker EVER, but on the other hand I have to respect the guy cause he has the balls to admit to being hurt by a Fuzzy Wuzzy.

Missing Crust

Back in third grade science class I remember studying the earth. We learned about the various layers like the Mantle, Magma, and the Crust (the happy layer we all live on). That these three layers exist has always been a constant in my life. Granted it was never at the front of my mind... I was never like "I'm having a bad day, but at least I know the earths crust is here to hold me up." Now I have come to learn that this is not the case. In some parts of the world the earth's crust ISN'T there to hold me up! Somewhere around the Canary Islands there is at least one giant hole into the earth that is missing it's crust. How does the earth miss it's crust! Is the planet running out of Magma and thus couldn't fill this hole? If that's the case we really need to get moving on this space exploration thing. Cause if we are losing Magma then next to go will be crust, then where are we going to plant our trees... certainly not in the Mantle ROCK! ...OK so I may be over exaggerating here, but still it is kinda weird that a piece is missing. Scientists are currently holding an expedition to find some answers.

Sopie Kinsella

"Of course I do. Everyone has a few secrets. It's completely normal.
I'm not talking about big, earth-shattering secrets. Not the-president-is-planning-to-bomb-Japan-and-only-Will-Smith-can-save-the-world type secrets. just normal, everyday little secrets." - Sophie Kinsella (Can You Keep A Secret)

I know its embarrising, and I shouldn't tell the world but, I have fallen in love with Sopie Kinsella. No this is NOT a lesbian moment. If you haven't heard of her Sopie is a Romance writter. I try to read books of a bit more substence and... sophistication, but every now and then you just have to endulge. So far I have read "Can You Keep a Secret" and "The Undemestic Goddess," which I recomend for everyone (well everyone who is NOT MALE). If your interested here is a link to her website http://www.randomhouse.com/bantamdell/kinsella/index.html.
