Like a Good Neighbor...
I’m from the South, but I always heard it called bean bags. Apparently it’s called ‘cornhole’. This sign is at a great place in Dallas by their bean bag - sorry, Cornhole boards. The place reminds me of Austin. So….be a good neighbor and cornhole quietly. No one seemed to have seen the sign.

From the look on his face, this wasn’t the first time someone slowed down to get a shot of his logo.

Barbie & Ken's Wedding Album
Apologies up front for the excessive photos, but it’s fantastic! I especially love the over-done, cliche wedding photos. They really got it right.

Four Reasons Why Men Die Earlier than Women
Apparently women are sexy? Probably not statistically accurate.
I couldn’t find an original photographer or source for these photos, so if anyone happens to know who created this funny series, let me know.

Mash - For the Digital Age
Do you ever want to find out who you will marry and how many children you’ll have? Do you need to know if you’re destined to live in a mansion, apartment, shack or home? Of course you do, but drawing those circles and counting to eleven so many times just seems like a lot of work. If only there was another way.
Well now there is! Mashga.me is easy to use online or on your iDevice...

Another Example of Accidental Ad Placement
Giants of the Savanna at the Dallas Zoo - featuring an Evil Zombie Alien Elephant on LSD. Fun for the whole family!
I had the ‘pleasure’ of being stuck behind this Dart bus on the way home from work last Friday.
Typical - all the jerks in the left lane who wouldn’t let me get around the big slow poke.
Atypical - me not road-raging because I now have a photo of an Evil...

Tiny Broccoli Treehouse
This reminds me of the little cities my cousins & siblings and I would build in my dad’s garden. I’m pretty sure he was never surprised to find tiny houses among the carrots and snap peas when he went to pick them.

What's Black & White and Smells All Over?
From Refinery29 because I’m feeling lazy:
If you’ve kept around old issues of The New York Times because you kind of get off on the smell, don’t worry, you’re not (that) weird. A fellow newspaper addict, the now deceased designer-artist Tobias Wong, created The Times Of New York candle, a concept that’s equal parts a tribute to the Grey Lady and a commentary...

Man Babies
The concept of this site is pretty self-explanatory. Man. Babies. I’m too mind-blown right now to try anyway, so I have here a few early favorites.
The better the Photoshop skills the more mind-blowing the photo. Check out more at the Man Babies site.
Thanks to Eric for the no-subject email containing only this link and email sig. I almost didn’t click on it thinking it may...

If you are among the ranks of people who find it tough to wake up and get moving in the morning, this alarm clock shredder may be just the thing to add a little incentive for jumping out of bed.
Though willfully destroying US currency is an offense punishable by law, the alarm could be loaded with other valuable documents like childhood photos, airline tickets or a hand-written note from...

How Would You Like That Done?
I worked through college as a waiter/restaurant manager and in my first service industry gig (at a large, well-known chain for a summer) I waited on a lunch table with three generations of women - Grandmother, Mother & Toddler Daughter.
After ordering the child’s meal, Grandmother ordered a steak. Once she chose the sides she wanted, I asked how she would like the steak done....
