My brother sent me this one yesterday. It's pretty fresh material on the Web.
It happened at the Catawba Fish Camp in Fort Lawn, SC. A girl decided to ignore the claw scam and get her a stuffed animal.
Two questions: 1.) Will this family ever appear at the Catawba Fish Camp again? 2.) Did the girl take a stuffed animal? If so, I hope she gets an invoice.

Here's a cool video on YouTube, showing some kind of liquid (water and corn starch?) dancing around on a piece of paper placed atop a subwoofer. Who knew?
There's some free entertainment for you in these tough times. Just don't get it in the speaker.

A new site teaches you how to fold a shirt properly, so you can rearrange your drawers and closet to look like a retail display.
I did some laundry Sunday and decided to try out the technique. It works well. It does take some practice, and I think the video needs narration.
So, fold away. But be careful! So says The Wall Street Journal!

I woke up at 4:15 this morning and immediately wondered, "What did Art Garfunkel read in July 1985?" Like many Americans, I find myself frequently wondering what Art read in decades past.
I stumbled sleepily to my computer and went to his Web site. I got my answer: "The Guermantes Way" by Proust, Howard Greenfeld's "Caruso" and "Fire in the Lake" by Frances Fitzgerald.
Fortunately, I was able to get the work week off to the right start.
