Crazy Stuff

If you’re looking for something “different” to occupy your time, take a look at Woman Pinball and be glad it’s her and not you bumping through that maze of balls. If she gets stuck on or between a ball, “mouse” on top of her, click and drag her into an open space and then release her. You can pull her through, over, or around wherever has her stopped.

O.J. SOL

Looks like the American people aren’t as greedy for senationalism as O.J. Simpson’s book publisher apparently hoped they’d be. After reportedly paying a huge advance to Simpson for his tell-all If I Did It, which was to be in book stores November 30th, publisher HarperCollins has pulled the plug due to public outrage.

Adding insult to Simpson’s ego injury, Fox Broadcasting also cancelled a two-part interview scheduled just prior to the book going on sale.

In his book, Simpson reportedly described how he would have killed Nicole Brown Simpson, his ex-wife, and her friend Ron Goldman, “if” he had done it.

Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp. owns HarperCollins and Fox Broadcasting. Negative reaction to the book from booksellers, advertisers, network affiliates, and the general public all helped to kill the deal. 

If Simpson did receive a hefty book advance, he’s the only winner in this fiasco that has brought new pain to the families of his victims “if he did it.”

The publisher has recalled the first supply of books which was shipped to bookstores. Those, and the rest of the printed copies, are scheduled to be destroyed. There will probably be a few copies that will miss the shredder and end up on eBay.

Past His Prime?

According to British newspaper The Sun, Michael Jackson’s performance at the World Music Awards in London was worth, at best, one star out of five. The Mirror and the Daily Mail were also negative about his first public performance since his trial last year.

Instead of performing one of his earlier mega hits, Jackson chose to sing “We Are the World” along with a choir of children. Poor choice, Jacko.

Jackson used to be known as “The King of Pop.” Now, as middle-age wreaks havoc on this 48-year-old “man-child,” “pops” is probably a more apt title.

“The Clapper”

I noticed my local Walgreens has “The Clapper” on sale. This is one of those novelty items that was popular years ago and apparently it’s coming out just in time for holiday gift-giving.

If you haven’t seen or heard of The Clapper, it plugs into a wall socket and then a lamp is plugged into The Clapper itself. If the sensitivity level is set right, a couple handclaps will turn the lamp on, or off.

No problemo.

Unless the lamp is in your bedroom and you or your partner are prone to nighttime coughing fits. One cough and the lights go on. You clap it off. Multiple coughs and you have a middle of the night lightning display. The first few times can be pretty funny. After that, it gets pretty annoying.

Make It Your Best

If today was the last day of your life, how would you spend it? How do you know it won’t be? Look in any paper and you’ll see stories of people dying in traffic accidents, and other types of accidents. The word “accident” is the key. These people weren’t expecting “that” day to be their “last” day.

My “Complete Trust” Is Required? Sure, You Got It!

Compliments of the day to you, I believe all is well. My name is Michael Leyden and I am a senior member of staff of a reputable bank in England. I have a transaction that I believe will be of mutual benefits to both of us. It involves an investment portfolio in our organization which I like to acquire with your help and assistance. This will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law and you will be compensated adequately according to agreed commissions.
 
Having said this, all that is required now is your complete trust and honest cooperation to enable us to see this transaction through. You will have to show commitments to the cause as time will be of great importance in what we have to do. If you are interested and prepared to work with me according to these dictates, please reply to this mail immediately so that we can discuss, make assessments and after your basic understanding of the whole business, commence the process by which we will actualize the project. I wish you a pleasant day as I hope to read from you soon.

Yours sincerely,
Michael Leyden

Smileworthy

The song is beautiful, the singer is superb. Adding some humor only enhances it more: “Torn” by Natalie Imbruglia.
