Someone on a forum I frequent posted a link to a site called abc distributing. While looking around over there, I saw this novelty toilet dog bowl that I absolutely must have once I get another dog. Since every single dog I've ever had in my life has been determined to drink out of the toilet, this thing would be perfect.

On a related note, my friend Amy found a great dog brush called a FURminator for her dog Grace. It's supposed to be absolutely amazing at getting those thick undercoats out. I know that was one of the biggest problems I had brushing Ursa and since I'd like to get another Malamute, I wanted to make note of this product before I forget about it. She got hers on eBay, but they sell them at PetSmart and Petco, too.

I wrote about Comedy Central pundit Stephen Colbert's broken wrist the other day. Well, the cast came off and he's auctioning it off for charity on eBay. Proceeds will benefit the Yellow Ribbon Fund. This bid is currently $6255.00. How cool is that?

Watch the videos about his WristWatch efforts and of Stephen getting his cast removed on last night's Colbert Report in the extended.

Last weekend I splurged and bought myself some Breyers All Natural Coffee Ice Cream at Target. I'm sickened to the core about how many chemicals and how much High Fructose Corn Syrup is in most commercial ice creams. It's just not right.

Anyway, Wednesday evening after dinner I got myself a couple of scoops and came back here to the old computer to enjoy it while surfing my blogroll and forums. Quite a bit later, Marcus informs me that my ice cream is melting all over the counter and is running down behind the stove. D'oh! I cleaned up what I could and I guess I get to pull the stove out on Sunday to clean back there before I attract bugs or worse. Dammit!

See, my memory really is impaired lately. That was so not cool.
