    Had a little fun on the web. It seemed like every search brought up something cool. Here are a few of the fun places I visited today:

    Crash Testing MINI Cooper Vs Ford 150 This was cool. Freaky. But cool. Look at the legs of the crash test dummy. Yikes!

    Nissan Versa The latest in small cars from Japan. I used to drive their Micra, which is the former version of this car. (Sort of.) I plan to enter their contest to win one, but you never heard about winning one, okay? You see, I never win anything and this is a pretty big item, that I would really like and could really use. Therefore, don’t enter so I have a better chance of winning. Thanks. I appreciate it.

    Along that note, the car is still in the shop as the mechanic is still sick. So eventually, they will find out what is wrong with the wobbly exfoliating car and let me know. Until then, it is bicycles for me.

    Urban Dictionary This was pretty cool too. All sorts of strange expressions and slang. I signed up for their daily word/expression definition. Example: Clicking Teeth. Definition: An awkward make out session, in which the two participants both are bad kissers and have there mouths open so wide that their teeth hit each other, thus clicking. (Man, Kyle and Nikki were totally clicking teeth last night at the movies, I hope neither of them chipped a tooth.)

    It’s like that book of strange mad up definitions by Douglas Adams ‘The Meaning of Liff’ that came out ages ago. Only this one is interactive and can email you a new word or phrase each day. Lovely. I hope I don’t have a ‘Facebook Surprise’ in the morning. (Damn, Facebook IS everywhere!)

    The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation I now have no excuse. Oh yes, unless laziness is an excuse. I am trying, I really am. Maybe they could email me a rule everyday. It’s like painless learning–almost.

    Anyway, those are some of the fun places I hung out today. I hope you enjoy them too.
