Alcohol my have been involved...

Man claims wombat gave him Australian accent... as an STD

Yep, you read it right. My favorite part of the story is the end. 'Alcohol played a large part in his life'. That is just one more example of why I do not shop at Wal-Mart. Now, there aren't any Wal-Marts in Australia yet... to my knowledge, but as soon as one opens I bet this guy will be there.

In other news I have decided that my Photoshop skills are deplorable and I've decided to brush them up a bit. I started going here for help. It's a cool site full of photoshop tutorials. So far I have attempted a ring of fire and making a flag look wavy... I have accomplished neither. Photoshop one, me zero.Check it out and try making a blue duck. I drew the duck blue because I've never seen a blue duck before. And to be honest, I wanted to see a blue duck.

The good news is that we got the super car back from the shop after everything decided to break on it. No more driving the blue bomber!! We had a leak in the roof, the radio LCD broke and the power steering went out. It was all under warranty but man, I sure feel confident that the rest of the car is built perfectly. I mean, they probably screwed up so bad on those things because they were paying so much attention to the rest of the car! Yep... really confident.

Oh yeah, one more thing.


This is a car that I found in my parking lot at work. Are those hood pins on a late 90's Hyundai? We work in the same building as a non-profit organization called Parent Child. That means I see about 3 to 5 pregnant teenagers every day... which is 2 more than the average San Antonio resident has living in their house. Now, I'm not trying to stereotype but I don't think this car belonged to any of our engineers, well maybe Patrick.

For those of you who don't pretend to know about cars, hood pins are used to hold the hood down at high speeds and allow the cars owner to remove the stock hood latches for reduced weight. Personally, I don't think that car can get fast enough to flip the hood if you launched it off a cliff.

The worst part is, this is by far not the weirdest thing I've seen on a car around here. I actually saw a wooden sports wing on a Sonata. Wooden, as in made of wood. Not kidding. Luckily my phone decided to go retarded and I never got a picture. Oh well, such is life. This is just one of the many reasons I don't drink tap water in this town. I mean... some of these people make being stupid look like a Olympic event
