Asthma Attacks

I found out something interesting today, AND it can help me in school. According to some science-people (to find out who you can click on the picture to find out who) Scorpios and other fall babies are more likely to develop asthma because they're born right before cold and flu season starts up. So when they start going to daycare and other things of that nature, germs are at their peak.
They also say that children in other countries develop asthma less than the ones in America because some of the other countries don't have sterile places for the babies to be born, and the kids are exposed to germs early on.
This confuses me, because if some kids get asthma more because they're exposed to germs (see first paragraph) then why do they credit other kids NOT getting asthma to being exposed to germs?

Decorations for Christmas AND Halloween!

These are very strange ornaments, which means I would put them on my Christmas tree if I had enough money to buy them. And if people wouldn't constantly try to exorcise them (particularly that one with the huge eyes, which is my favorite). Unfortunately, I don't think I'd have the guts to put them on my tree when I live alone. That would just be asking for a horror movie.

Egg

*Poke poke* Heh. I found this online and decided to see what it did. The objective is to get lots of clicks. I don't know why, though.

Good news! I now have a life (or, at least as much of a life that I had before November...) So expect me to actually start posting again soon. And by 'posting' I mean 'finding something ahead of time as opposed to randomly searching for a picture of a two-headed shark in my haste to add to my blog.' But right now I need to go take care of some things I've let lag. What is this 'schoolwork' of which you speak?

Erm, Hello

Yes, I know it's the middle of November and my play ended in October. See, I actually have a very good reason for this. It all started about a month ago when... LOOK A STRANGE THING YOU WOULDN'T SEE NORMALLY!

Wow, I didn't think that would work. It's a good thing I randomly found a picture of a two-headed shark. Unfortunately, the search for 'two headed shark in a tutu' didn't turn up with any pictures.

Happy Halloween, Everyone!

I got this in an e-mail, and decided to put it up here. There are, really, no words I can think of to describe this. Elmo knows where you live!

A Delicious Summertime Treat!

Next summer, when it's sweltering outside, it's time to try a tasty new treat! Bloodsicles, with all the platelet-y goodness of blood! Just kidding. The lions at the National Zoo in Washington DC, however, get a giant hunk of frozen cow blood and ice so that they can enrich themselves by pretending its a real cow (but aren't real cows, um, not ice?) and they can also just lick at it. I really want to go there and see it in action, but my summer's already packed. Which is odd, seeing as it's only late September/early October.
If you want to go ahead and try one, I won't judge.
