Johnny Depp is helping build and fire the cannon that will shoot Hunter S. Thompson's ashes onto his ranch in Aspen. I'm really happy that Thompson is getting what he wanted.

Kyle mentioned a few weeks ago that Dave from Yet Another Comics Blog was giving away free comics every day during the month of May. I sent in my entry and I was the winner today. Thanks to Kyle and Dave. I'm excited to check out my free comics.

Now that I have this sweet new machine, I need some games. What are you guys playing right now on the PC?

Just a dude falling.

It made me laugh. I love what you can find while doing image searches on google.

According to this story, the Northeast has the dumbest drivers. When I first saw the headline, I thought, "is it possible for anywhere to have worse drivers than CA (in the U.S.)?" Apparently it is, but don't get too excited. Only Maryland, D.C., New York, New Jersey, Massachussetts, and Rhode Island are worse. That still puts us in 43rd place of the areas that were tested. And I experience proof of this on a regular basis.

Erika and I were laughing the other day at a mailing we got from an organization called Saint Matthew's Churches, that contains a "Bible Faith Handkerchief" that has the power to bring miracles and blessings to our house. According to the accompanying letter, we are supposed to write our name and a prayer concern on the handkerchief (it's actually a regular piece of paper with a plaid border). We are then to place the handkerchief in our Bible (turned to Acts 19:11-12--more on that later) for JUST ONE NIGHT (why not longer, I don't know). We are then told to send the letter back to the church so that they can pray for us.
