Here's a llama!

Since it has been almost a month with nothing to post about, I'd thought perhaps I'd share some of my favorite things to do on the Internet.

1. yahoo.com often has good stories. There's a lot of really random stuff, but also stuff that usually ends up on the news on TV the next day. Yahoo is also home to Yahoo! Answers. Even if you don't have a question to ask or answer sometimes they are just fun to read. Example- "Can I clone myself and use the clones for spare parts?" One answer- " You better hope they don't use you for spare parts!"

2. lefthandedtoons.com All three of you who read my blog, already know about this site. However, I felt the need to remind you because it is such a good site. I visit it every weekday to see the new toon. My recent favorite is called Banana!.

3. fmylife.com What website is better than this? It is stories of hilarious, crappy things that happen to people just like you (I take that back because some of the people are stupid and bring it on themselves). My favorite I read when I was moderating, but it never got posted. It went something like this: "Today, I was whistling as I walked past my academic adviser from last year. She said 'that's fitting.' I was whistling 'If I only had a brain' FML"

4. Russell Brand Normally, I don't like famous people, but I love this guy. He has everything I look for in a comedian. He's funny, British, former drug and sex addict, and was an English teacher for a year. This youtube clip, my friend showed me, is my favorite, but I would highly recommend watching the other parts too and checking out other videos of him on youtube. I also enjoy his crazy hair.

5. Abc.com The best thing on this website is the FEP. FEP used to stand for full episode player, but then got changed to free episode player- just to let you know how nice they are by letting you watch some of their shows online for free. I usually watch Grey's Anatomy, but via the FEP I recently discovered a new TV show. It's on TV on Wednesday nights, but you think I remember to watch it then? It's just not that important to me. So, in my free time, I go to abc.com to watch Better Off Ted. There are lots their shows online too, like Lost and Desperate Houswives.

Really, there are so many things you can do online. Like virtual makeovers. Seriously, how can you ever be bored with Google? There are also my old favorites- bored.com- you have not lived until you've played all of the escape games, painted your personality, and tested your psychic powers. And don't forget good ol' neopets and this video.
