<p>I don&#8217;t know who the &#8220;genius&#8221; is that came up with Microsoft&#8217;s new advertising slogan, but I&#8217;d like to ask them: if we have a &#8220;life without walls&#8221;, why would we ever need windows?</p>
<p>P.S.  Mr Seinfeld, please stay away from the Microsoft advertising people from this point on.  I know you probably got paid a bunch of cash for those two ads, but they were about as funny as a bout of groin chafing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="songLyric">&#8230; say can you see &#8230; my eyes if you can &#8230; then my hair&#8217;s too short &#8230;</span></p>
<p>Do the guys on the hair restoration ads <em>really</em> believe that their new crops of follicles actually look real?  Some look like shag carpet, some look like farm forests (if you&#8217;ve ever seen a paper farm, with all the trees growing in lines, you&#8217;ll know what I mean), some look like ferrets crawled up the guys back and settled in on their cranium.  Regardless of their form, it must be said that almost all look ridiculous.</p>
<p>There are also seemingly numerous companies all claiming to be the &#8220;only&#8221; proven way to restore natural hair.  Yes, I know, I watch too much TV!  It&#8217;s crazy though &#8212; I thought that fact-checking was supposed to be done on commercials before they were allowed to be aired.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a good thing that I have plenty of my own hair, or I might be tempted to try one of these out, so my head could make people point and laugh.  Oh, hang on, people do that already, and I didn&#8217;t even have to spray-paint my bald spot!</p>

<p>If you think about it, it&#8217;s blatantly obvious why smurfs are blue: hundreds of little males and only one woman.</p>
<p>I guess balls can only hold so much blue before they overflow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="songLyric">&#8230; feel my head touch my face &#8230; two steps back you&#8217;re in my space &#8230;</span></p>
<p>When you get on an escalator, can you stand on the step right behind someone or do you have to leave an empty step?</p>
<p>If you stand on the step right behind them, are you tailgating?  Are you sending a message to them, asking them to move to the side so that you can pass?  Are you just being rude?  If they don&#8217;t move, are they being rude?</p>

<p>I was contemplating my bowl of Special K the other morning, but I don&#8217;t think I could have put it any better than <a href="http://www.willotoons.com" target="_blank">Willo</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p> <strong><a href="http://www.willotoons.com/2005/02/evasive-cereal-bits.php" target="_blank">evasive cereal bits..</a></strong><br />
why is it that when there are only a few more flakes swimming around in the milk, they can be so tricky to get on the spoon? it&#8217;s like all of a sudden they TRY to dodge it.. &#8220;oh shit, here it comes! Run to the other side of the bowl &#8211; quick!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
