How did I stumble across such wonderful images? I noticed that a user came to my site via a search engine after searching for feel the beautiful pain" I searched on google to find where I rank when searching for that particular phrase and was surprised to fins that all he other sites were porn sites. Does this prove that porn dominates the web, or that my site is bordering on pornographic?
I was looking around at average salaries for various jobs at the Department of Labor web-site, and found the average annual expenditures for single males in the US for 2000-2001. I was interested to see how compared. So far I've only really looked at the Food category, but this is what I found...

Of course I don't know how accurate my figures are, since until now I have never been able to keep up and expenditure recording drive for longer than 2.5 months. I will start again today... If I am lucky this one will last until April.
Instead of writing about my weekend, I will show you my sketch-blog, where you can see I spent the weekend eating sweet potatoes and watching Tomoe sleep and write her thesis.
More pictures of the birds of course... just to spite the jerk who doesn't like them. And just a reminder to all who read this. This site is not for enjoyment. It is not supposed to be interesting. It is only so I don't have to write email to everyone I know. The main audience is my mom. Not YOU!!! But you are all welcome to read it.
