Dumb Michigan LAws

25% Cash Back from Shopping

Ebates is a different kind of discount shopping site. With a free membership all that is required is for you to have an e-mail address and the desire to shop. Ebates gets paid a commission to promote more than 800 stores for online shopping, but they give it back to their customers in a big fat check rather than pocketing it all. You can get cash back from purchases at companies like Apple and up to 25% cash back at more than 800 popular online shopping sites and stores. They also offer coupons and specials so there really is no reason not to check them out and start saving thousands of dollars a year to buy things you would have bought anyways.

Ummm...yeah



I guess I just felt like throwing this random picture up because I am in an odd mood. This dog looks so weird that it kind of reminds me of how I feel right about now. Well that is enough about this odd looking dog. I should get back to work and finish up for the day so I can waste time living my dream of doing nothing like Peter from Office Space.

Veteran gets cake after 50 years

Nice story. Amazing how much respect families of war veterans have for the soldiers their relatives served with when many in this country treat them like the plague. At least someone knows how to make good on a promise.

EAST LIVERPOOL, Ohio - It took more than half a century, but William Bourne finally received the dessert delivery he was promised by the mother of a Korean War comrade.

This week, a chocolate cake arrived at his home in the northeast Ohio town of East Liverpool, brought by the son of Ed Charvat, with whom Bourne served in the Army's 1st Cavalry Division.

The Bad Parrots

A lady goes to her parish priest one day and tells him, "Father,
I have a problem. I have two female parrots but they only know
how to say one thing." "What do they say?" the priest inquired.
"They say, 'Hi, we're prostitutes. Do you want to have some
fun?" "That's obscene!" the priest exclaimed, "I can see why you
are embarrassed." He thought a minute and then said, "You know,
I may have a solution to this problem. I have two male parrots
whom I have taught to pray and read the Bible.

Bring your two parrots over to my house and we will put them in
the cage with Francis and Job. My parrots can teach your parrots
to praise and worship. I'm sure your parrots will stop saying
that...that phrase in no time." "Thank you," the woman
responded, "this may very well be the solution."

The next day, she brought her female parrots to the priest's
house. As he ushered her in, she saw this two male parrots were
inside their cage, hold their rosary beads and praying.
Impressed, she walked over and placed her parrots in with them.
After just a couple of seconds, the female parrots exclaimed out
in unison, "Hi, we're prostitutes. Do you want to have some
fun?"

There was a stunned silence. Finally, one male parrot looked
over at the other male parrot and said, "Put the beads away,
Francis, our prayers have been answered!"

Punxsutawney Phil predicts early spring

Anything that reminds me of the movie Groundhog Day is good. Especially if it is predicting that this winter will be over soon. This week has been rather blizardy if that is a word. Had to shovel a path for the mailman 3 times yesterday before he came.

PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. - A new pair of hands pulled Punxsutawney Phil from his stump this year, so it was only fitting that the groundhog offered a new prediction.

Phil did not see his shadow on Friday, which, according to German folklore, means folks can expect an early spring instead of six more weeks of winter.

Florida hunter bags a hermaphrodite deer

Wow...pretty crazy odds of this happening to the same guy with in a couple days. Never heard of this before, but it doesn't suprise me as many deer that are hunted every year.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - A DeBary man who was out hunting deer last fall got a big surprise when he took one of his deer into the check station.

Joe Stokes was deer hunting on public land in Sumter County on Nov. 12 and shot two deer, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission reported.

When FWC senior wildlife technician Tim Farley logged in the deer, he discovered that one deer was a hermaphrodite, possessing both male and female reproductive organs. Farley also he logged in another hermaphrodite deer the day before.

"I've been doing this for 27 years, and I've only come across three deer that were 'true' hermaphrodites, those having all of the male and female sex organs," Farley said in a statement.

Robert Vanderhoof, the deer management coordinator for the FWC, said deer that are true hermaphrodites are extremely rare.

Play Poker Right

I like to play poker and I like to play it right. When my friends and I play we don't like to have a bunch of bills and coin floating around the table. We don't like to play on a regular table either. We use Poker Chips and we use a real Poker Table. Using chips is so much easier to keep things organized. Throw a few bills into the coffer and play with chips. The guy that has all this stuff gets more company than anyone for poker now.

Valentine's Day Gift

One day this girl was talking to her friend and she said to her, "My boyfriend bought me flowers for Valentines day this year so I guess I have to put my legs in the air for him.", and her friend replied, "Why? Don't you have a vase?"

osCommerce Cafe

Since becoming involved on the net in the capacity of actually designing sites I have found it to be very time consuming and very frustrating at times. When it comes to the design of the site it seems that using a template is much more satisfying in that regard because it is so much easier. You can plug in the template and have the site up and running in minutes. Then you just need to start adding the content. It is so much simpler to work this way and make adjustments to suit your needs instead of just starting from scratch.

The osCommerce Café offers this service with the ability to download as many osCommerce template designs as you want. They currently have 70 available and have several membership packages you can choose from. Customers can sign up for a three month, six month or one year membership during which time they get to download as many osCommerce templates as they like. They charge $89 for a three month membership when many competitors charge about $150 for just ONE design. This site is for web designers who need to be able to access multiple template designs for their sites with out having to buy them all individually. Imagine buying 70 templates at $150 each. Why would anyone do that when they can get access to download them all for just $89?

The business itself was founded by Myles O’Reilly in March 2006. He is also the author of the popular book The Programmer’s Guide to osCommerce. With a background in the business they know exactly what kind of sites web designers need to get their sites going at an affordable price. They also know how valuable time is and how quickly many sites need to be internet ready. Take a look at their site and see some of the designs up close to get an idea of how they can help you.

'Bare Nekkid Mainers' enjoy buff bowling

I guess I know where not to go if I want to bowl anytime soon. Being nude is great, but looking at fat and ugly people is not. Especially in public. Last thing I want to see is them sitting on public chairs and using public facilities.

OLD TOWN, Maine - When members of the Bare Nekkid Mainers rent the Old Town Bowling Center, all they really need are the shoes. "Hey, you can't go skinny-dipping at this time of year," Hessa, who organizes the gatherings and wanted to be identified only by her first name, told the Bangor Daily News.

Self-described naturist nudists, the Bare Nekkid Mainers belong to an international organization and participate in nudist events throughout the year.

The group used to bowl in Albion, but their venue there closed.

Halfway to Half.com

Anyone remember that guy who got Halfway, Oregon renamed Half.com, Oregon? He wrote a book about it and how he did it. I guess he's on the professional speaking circuit now and is one of the top professional speakers. I guess if he can motivate a town to change its name to a dot com he must be one heck of a motivational speaker.

Old Ladies Playing Bridge

Two old ladies have played bridge together for many years, and naturally they have gotten to know each other pretty well. One day, during a game of cards, one lady suddenly looks up at the other and says, "I realize we've known each other for many years, but for the life of me, I just can't bring it to mind... would you please tell me your name again, dear?" There is dead silence for a couple of minutes, then the other lady responds, "How soon do you need to know?"

Free Podcasting and Bandwidth

The great thing about it though is that you aren't doing this live. You have the time to edit, write, and structure you rpodcast any way you like it. You don't hav eto worry about coming up with catchy phrases on the fly.

The only problem is that unless you have the access it is going to cost you a lot of money to upload the podcast as well as have it available to others to download. That is why when someone is offering a Free Podcast service with free bandwidth for downloads you are getting the perfect deal. See what you can do with it and get out there with waht you have to say.

Pot-running Arizona granny gets 3 years

Couldn't grandma run her own Bingo parlor with the odds in her favor if she was raking it in selling pot? Come on grandma. You are smart enough to traffic weed, but not smart enough to run a back room Bingo game? Apparently not I suppose.

SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. - A 62-year-old grandmother who prosecutors said ran drugs to support her bingo habit has been sentenced to three years in prison and a $150,000 fine.

Acting on a tip, state police stopped Leticia Villareal Garcia near Bisbee in southeast Arizona in February 2005 and found 214 pounds of marijuana stuffed into the trunk of her car.

Garcia has maintained her innocence, telling the judge at her sentencing Friday that she was unaware of the grass as she headed for a bingo game.
