Disturbing? You be the judge...

I'm all for the happy cows but this cow disturbs me in ways I can hardly vocalize. I don't know if it's the creepy moaning or gently swinging utters. I mean, does this really make you hungry for an Oreo cookie and a glass of milk? Check it out by clicking on the title of this post.

Check out Cocoon...

No, not the movie. Although it is a good movie to watch with the grandparents. By the way, was there a second movie made? Because the movie poster image I found says "The Return" and I didn't know there was a part two....

So anyway, the Cocoon I'm talking about is a retailer of some very cool bags. From portfolio cases to messenger bags to laptop cases, they've got the goods...including airport friendly bags for your computer and this compartment called GRID-IT™, which keeps all your loose stuff organized. Think cell phones, ipod, headphones, etc. To check it out, click here or on the title of this post.

Now Cher's song, "If I could turn back time" is in my head. Go figure.

Watch out for the giant frog...

Yep, we got our big Panamanian Golden Frog up on our building today. The plaque with the description was written so well (by yours truly), someone already stole it! The local ice cream shop is even coming up with a special flavor to celebrate the event. Don't worry, frog legs are not on the list of ingredients. :-)

Is there nothing an iPhone App can't do?

In the span of less than 24 hours I have read or watched on TV the introduction of two latest apps. Dare I say I don't have an iPhone, nor do I want one until they open up the service carriers, but all these freak'n apps make it hard not to jones for one. Speaking of carriers.....doesn't limiting their service to just one go against the very nature of everything Apple stands for? But I digress.

So last night I saw a commercial for Nationwide Insurance. They now have an app that takes you through the steps of documenting a car accident. It's called the "Accident Toolkit" and it prompts you to take pictures, start the claims process, collect the necessary information from the other driver, etc. It's a good idea and I'm sure they won't get the props for coming up with it because Allstate and State Farm are surely going to jump on that bandwagon as fast as you can say - "you're in good hands."

And that second app - a very cool idea for art directors and photographers - a color app by The Mill. It lets the user manipulate an image on set and email to The Mill's colorist for reference. Check it out here.

Things I ponder from time to time..

More specifically, I was pondering these very things last night as I was listening to the secondhand click click clicking away. So, what exactly was I thinking about....glad you asked. Just a few things off the top of my head:

• What's a neutral country like Switzerland doing inventing an army knife?

• If the rain in Spain falls mainly in the plains, is the rest of Spain in a constant drought?

• Is Conan O'Brien really just a tall leprechaun?

• If you're dead asleep, do you breathe normally or hardly at all?

If you have these answers or have your own curious questions, no cats will be killed here. Comment and post to your heart's content.

I'm not a celebrity so why am I watching this shista?

Admit it, you've seen this awful show if even for a minute. There's nothing else on people so it's hard not to stop channel surfing and watch Spencer do/say something totally idiotic. How many times have they threatened to leave the show now? No really, how many (I'm not watching any more - I have a life after all!) :-) And where did Lou Diamond Phillips come from? Has he been under a rock for the last ten years or what? I'm rooting for Sanjia - his Mohawk rocks.
