I never really approved of Cracked magazine.  It was, to my mind, a mere pretender to the throne that was Mad.  Their website, however, has won me over.  This article in particular caught my attention ( Read more... )

I just don't have much to say on LiveJournal, so I'm resorting to the occasional meme. I realize that this irks people, and I'm sorry if it does.

Dear Person Who Stole My Master Card Number,

Hey, last week I checked my MasterCard that I got through my university where I take teacher ed courses.  You know, the one that the federal government puts money into and the one that I only use to pay tuition? Yeah that one.  And WOW! Was I surprised to see that instead of having $2000 in it, I only had ( Read more... )
