What type of meat are?
Test.
Me: Chewy and unctuous, Corned Beef is your spirit guide.
Your comforting tenderness belies the sultry nature that lurks at your core. You are usually served with a side of salty steamed cabbage which tends to cause indigestion and mealy boiled potatoes which sometimes gum up the works. You are not to everyone's taste, but a true connoisseur will appreciate your homey nature. Your life may not be perfect, but your spirit guide will be the best caretaker that it can be.

The Mile Wall - the internet's longest web site
The Mile Wall is a project to build the internet’s longest page. The page will stretch for 1 mile ( 1.6 km ) horizontally and be made entirely of public posted material. It will be the first, or at least one of the first, pages to go entirely horizontal for such an incredible distance.
*Looks down the page*
A few days ago I posted a photo of a sign regarding unattended children.
It has now been brought to my attention that an almost identical sign was recently spotted in a Vietnamese restaurant.
Thanks Sandy.

How good or evil is your website?
Unfortunately this page is too big so I can't rate my evilness.
However, I tried it out on the post yesterday as to whether Dubya is the Antichrist and the results were 50% evil, 50% good.
So that's cleared that up then.
Thanks Annemarie.

Man's headache leads doctor to discovery of three sewing needles lodged in his brain
As a child, his grandmother had saved him more than once from poisoning after a gas valve was left open inside the house. He once slipped into a river and fell beneath a logjam floating downstream. A three-metre length of heavy pipe fell on his head at work, but that also failed to kill him.

Probably a repost.

Singing Birds
You don’t have to be an ornithologist to appreciate the ungimmicky bird songs and movements of the motion-activated Singing Birds. Based on hand-sculpted models by Dr. Tsutomu Suzuki of the University of Tokyo, these freestanding birds are made even more realistic with modern microchip technology, which produces true-to-life sound and twitching in response to motion and changes in light conditions. The birds’ authentic songs come from real recordings from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, whose mission is to conserve the earth’s biodiversity through research, education and science-based focus on birds.

How to get a day off school
When it comes to conjuring a snowstorm, 8-year-old Taylor Zelman has more than a few tricks aimed at getting the day off from school.
She wears her pajamas inside out and backward. She runs around the kitchen table five times and flushes ice cubes down the toilet. And as she goes to sleep on winter school nights, she faithfully repeats, "I want it to snow, I want it to snow, I want it to snow".
