We're enjoying a lazy Saturday; nothing to do, nowhere to go, except dinner later this evening, and no plans. It's too bad that it's raining outside otherwise we could go out and do some yardwork. The grass seems to have grown 2inches overnight. I'll be whipping that lawn mower out very very soon.

We just finished watching Meet The Fockers, my video pick of the week, an entertaining movie with several laugh out loud funny moments. I actually enjoyed seeing Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand in this movie and DeNiro, of course, is playing the same role as in the first film. In fact he's played the same kind of role in several films over the past few years. Soon I'll be listing the summer movies I'm looking forward to seeing and there are several that look very promising. Looks can be deceiving though.

Thought of the day: If you are feeling disconnected from something or someone, do something about it. Connect!!!!!

Ridiculous item of the day: Those things aren't just for sex anymore.......In New Delhi, India, many of the condoms are used to make toys, saris, and bathroom slippers. The weavers use the condoms on their thread spools and the lubricant rubs off on the thread so that it goes through the machine faster. The condoms are also used by sari makers to polish gold and silver threads on women's garments. They put them on their fingers turned inside out. Only a quarter of the 1 billion annually produced condoms are actually used for sex. Considering the spread of AIDS and population maybe a few more should be used for those afternoon delights.

That's all for today.
