How amusing. Someone made a kind of flash animation music video to the Pearl Jam song “Yellow Ledbetter.” However… whether or not it was intentional (and I’m still not sure), the animation includes wonderfully misheard lyrics. Now, granted, I couldn’t understand a damn thing Eddie was saying in the first place, but I know this ain’t it.

Here’s yet another one I received at work:
Two married buddies are out drinking one night when one turns to the other and says, “You know, I don’t know what else to do. Whenever I go home after we’ve been out drinking, I turn the headlights off before I get to the driveway. I shut off the engine and coast into the garage. I take my shoes off before I go into the house, I sneak up the stairs, get undressed in the bathroom, stick my foot in the toilet and pee down my leg to prevent splashing sounds. I ease into bed and my wife STILL wakes up and yells at me for staying out so late!”
His buddy looks at him and says, “Well, you’re obviously taking the wrong approach. I screech into the driveway, slam the door, storm up the steps, throw my shoes in the closet, jump into bed, slap her on the ass and shout, ‘WHO’S HORNY’…” and she acts like she is asleep every time.”
OMG. I just made a batch of banana candles, and now the whole ground floor of my house smells like banana pudding. Oh, yum.
Once my test votive sets up, it’ll be time to burn that along with my coconut test candle to see if, together, it really would smell like banana cream pie. If it does… Oh, yeah. New candle flavor on the menu.
Edit, Friday Night: I’m burning the votive I made for myself, and it has kind of an odd chemical/medicinal smell. That’s really disappointing, because it has such a great cold scent. Ah, well. That’s why I buy one-ounce samples instead of huge vats o’ fragrance oil.
On the subject of candlemaking, I was just thinking… Does anyone else have a tendency to burn out (very punny) really fast on hobbies? Not entirely, I suppose, but…

Holy shit. I never had a teacher go off like this in high school, thank goodness. When Mr. Mantel wants you to stand up for the National Anthem, you’re damn well gonna stand up, or you’ll get your chair pulled out from underneath you.
Teacher freaks out about National Anthem, with Video
Edit: If you’d like to download the video, there’s a torrent here. Apparently all the sites hosting the video are starting to get bogged down. (Go figure.)
Um… I’m kind of embarrassed to admit this, but…
For the past couple of days, I’ve been on a Barry Manilow kick. o.O
I only wish I could find the original Barry Manilow Greatest Hits album in mp3. I downloaded the Greatest Hits Platinum Collection, but it’s not the same. Most of the tunes are his 80’s songs and remakes of his older hits, not the original 70’s tunes I played over and over on my cassette player during that one summer when I was thirteen. (Gotta love double-album-length cassettes. That tape I once scammed from my Mom had is now apparently available on CD as Volumes 1 and 2, with a bonus track on each.)
Is it any wonder that I was a social reject? 😛
