An Unclear Job Position.


































I have NO IDEA what this job actually is. I mean, I know it's a time of high unemployment and increasing desperation among those looking for jobs, but, um... who would apply to this? What would the cover letter say?
"To Whom It May Concern: I am very interested in the position you advertised on craigslist. I have several years of experience as a gypsy, traveling Eastern Europe and robbing passing caravans, but your company offers me an excellent opportunity to use my skills in a corporate setting for the benefit of society."
???????

Death, Literally.

Apparently Kristen Stewart is no more. She says of filming New Moon:

"People don't just break up [in the films] – they break up and it literally kills you. It's not like you just say, 'Oh, I'm really depressed and crying.' I always had a really hard time figuring out, 'Am I doing enough? Do I look like I'm going to die?' ".... "Yeah, it killed me. It killed me."


RIP, Kristen.

Drunken Antics

This person sounds like one of the most fun drunks ever:

Today, I saw a video of me last night, hammered, climbing my wardrobe screaming "I WANT TO GO TO NARNIA" naked. FML

Not FML, poster, but epic win!

Sarah Palin's Poor Writing Skills.

Vanity Fair took a look at Sarah Palin's resignation speech and had three of its editors turn it into publishable work. I am pretty sure they cut out at least half the speech.
My favorite parts include:
  • Where she referred to someone as a part of Abraham Lincoln's cabinet, when he was really on Andrew Johnson's cabinet.
  • Where she says "over 2 million" taxpayer dollars were wasted and the research editor changed it to "nearly $200,000."
  • Where they circled sections and wrote "misleading" and "vague."

Read the full edited article here: http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2009/07/palin-speech-edit-200907?currentPage=1

Oh, Sarah Palin. You should probably not hold public office ever again. Please?

Amazon Search Suggestions.

Books "jess and the runaway grandpa"



Well, no, I didn't mean that, Amazon, but does that exist? Because that sounds like an AWESOME book.
