Another Student Poll

Ok, so this last weekend I was cleaning my house and watching Miss Congeniality and I realized that I really liked Sandra Bullock's hair in that movie (after her makeover) so now I am torn on which haircut. Since I was an idiot and accidently erased most of my last poll's results about the Paula Abdul haircut, I thought I shoud try again since my mind is at an impasse. So now the question is: 1. go with the Paula Abdul (she has bangs) 2. Go with the Sandra Bullock (no bangs) 3. Leave my hair as is.
Help!!!
ps- for Paula look see Sept 27 Blog.

50 First States!

An intellectually stimulating game!!! I remember having to learn all the states and their capitals in 7th grade- so that was awhile ago for me but I did not bad on this little quiz:) Give it a go- see how geographically minded you are!

You won't believe it!!!

I got this cool story from my aunt- check it out!!!

"In a zoo in California, a mother tiger gave birth to a rare set oftriplet tiger cubs. Unfortunately, due to complications in thepregnancy, the cubs were born prematurely and due to their tiny size,they died shortly after birth. The mother tiger after recovering from the delivery, suddenly startedto decline in health, although physically she was fine. The veterinarians felt that the loss of her litter had caused the tigress to fall into adepression. The doctors decided that if the tigress could surrogate another mother's cubs, perhaps she would improve. After checking with many other zoos across the country, the depressing news was that there were no tiger cubs of the right age to introduce tothe mourning mother. The veterinarians decided to try something that had never been tried in a zoo environment. Sometimes a mother of one species will take on the care of a different species. The only "orphans"that could be found quickly, were a litter of weaner pigs. The zookeepers and vets wrapped the piglets in tiger skin and placed the babies around the mother tiger. Would they become cubs or pork chops??Take a look........ you won't believe your eyes!!"

Ok ya'll- I need some help. I can't decide how or if I should cut my hair. I am thinking I like Paula Abdul's hair- not the short little pixie thing she had going on but the longer style with the layers? Know what I am talking about? Anyway- what do you think- should I go for that cut, leave my hair the way it is (I have layers now but its more towards the end of my hair), or let it grow really long and get rid of the layers? Leave a comment and let me know!!! Thanks!

Here is a picture of my hair currently:

Travis part 3

Well I have a couple of series that go on throughout my blog- optical illusions, peanut butter and funny pictures of Travis. We all love Travis- he is a wonderful boss, but he is also a silly guy. This picture is actuallya video clip if I can get it to work. Niki showed it on the weekend for her talk. We were playing Sharks and Minnows where the person in the middle or "shark" has to keep his or her eyes shut and everyone else has to try to swim across the pool or in this case spool, without getting caught.

What is funny about this is that there is no one in the pool but Travis. It was the last round and it took forever for Trav to finally get caught so he would have to be it. So we decided to pull a little prank on him and the rest of us got out of the pool. So he is jumping and splashing around trying to tag us but there is no one in there. Just watch- it's pretty funny. He finally opened his eyesand was like "you guys" but he knows it was all in fun:)

For old funny pictures of Trav check out the June blogs and the November blogs in to the left.

Optical Illusions, part deux

I love Optical Illusions- they are so cool!!! I actually wrote a blog about them before (part 1), you can check it out if you like under my June blogs. Anyway, I have some new ones that are pretty nifty. Have fun twisting and tweaking your sense of reality. Just goes to show you can't always trust you eyes!



If you take a look at the following picture , it is not animated. Your eyes are making it move. To test this, stare at one spot for a couple seconds and everything will stop moving. Or look at the black center of each circle and it will stop moving. But move your eyes to the next black center and the previous will move after you take your eyes away from it. You can see the illusion better if you click on the image to make it larger:)

Are the purple lines straight or curved?

Click on this one to make it larger as well- works better!

The Coolest Dog Ever!!!

I love the pups!!! Probably because they love you no matter what. They are so excited to see you when you come home. They get stoked just when you say their name and tell them what a good doggie they are. Even when they do something bad and you have to yell at them, all they want to do is win back your approval. Dogs are great! Check out this clip of an awesome pooch!!! Sometimes it takes a bit to load so be PATIENT!!! Click on the play arrow at the bottom of the screen (not the one in the middle) and then just wait for the video to start:)
