Wordless Wednesday: The Moon isn't Made of Green Cheese...

...it's made of Oreos!

Welcome to third-grade science, where subject matter is edible!

Just for Fun

Done at Tagxedo on a tip from LifeHacker. Word cloud is based on my blog URL.

For My Girls

...who love Lego Rock Band, Band Hero, and Guitar Hero.

Travel Man Did It

I clicked, he answered. I only knew two answers for sure on my own.

AND PASSED WITH AN EXCELLENT SCORE! A-

Quiz Created By Auto Insurance

Oatmeal is fun!

Christmas Light Hero

A friend of mine shared this with me.

Think I can get Travel Man to do this with our lights next year??

Hysterical (G-Rated) Fail of the Day

If you're not reading FailBlog.org, you're missing some very funny (if sometimes extremely juvenile) stuff.  This is one of my favorites so far:

'Tis the Day to Speak Thusly

Today is The Bard's birthday, and thus I, instructor and tutor for mine children, have decreed that we shall speak as such all day.  Also, all young ladies must wear appropriate clothing for their fair sex (in other words, frocks and not clothing such as young men would wear).  

We shall also celebrate by reading Shakespeare in the park, methinks.  Perhaps reciting "The Comedy of Errors" would give us great pleasure.

Besides, it's OFFICIALLY A HOLIDAY!

Here, see what fun you can have?

You. Are. Awesome!

Hat tip: The Anchoress
 

(The Anchoress has such a great blog, AND she turned me onto some of the best coffee ever!)

(a) Christine is a Logical Person

(b) Christine took a logic test.

Therefore...

Christine got a perfect score.

****************

I saw that Sarah took the Logic Test, so I did, too.

Got 15/15.  100% baby.

I'm a logical gal.  But I already knew that.

Made here.

I've Been Playing This Morning

These Wordles are fun!  I've made a few to tell the Christmas story, beginning with the Annunciation.  (Actually, I have two versions, one in Latin and one in English.)

Ave Maria:

Hail Mary:

Unto You is Born a Savior:

Behold, From the East Wise Men Came:

An Angel Appeared to Joseph in a Dream:

Make your own here!  You can even save them to a gallery.

Found!

Free streaming concert from 1984: Weird Al!

Here's a sampling:

I remember seeing him in concert - once at Great Adventure in NJ, once at Pleasure Island at Disney World (where I got his autograph) - and being amazed at the talent of his band. Quite possibly one of the MOST talented group of musicians I've ever seen perform. Just look at the variety of musical styles they cover. And as far as I know, his band is the same as it's always been.

Fascinating Water Fountain in Japan

This is WAY cool, and I'm saving it here to show the family later.

Found at Shoved to Them.

HYSTERICAL!!

Found at Amy's place.

By the way, this song is in my iTunes library.  ;)

Bad Grammar!

No...not that kind of Grammar...

...the kind the Red Inkwell shows off.

What We Did Last Night

The girls helped me prepare the pumpkins for carving, then helped with straining the seeds so we could roast them for our trip next week.

I'm kind of proud of how the jack-o-lanterns turned out.  Not bad for someone who had not carved a pumpkin until about three years ago, eh?

More pictures here.

I'm Printing this for Co-Op Today

Domine, da mihi hanc aquam...: Church is not Wal-Mart (UPDATED)

The top-ten list here has been making the rounds, but I finally went and read it.  It's coming to co-op today.  :)

SOOOO COOL!

I saw this at Julie's blog, and it's one of the coolest things I've seen in a while!
