Like Vin...

Some people have huge ears. Really, really big ears... there is nothing wrong with having big ears, after all, we can't really choose what nature gives us, right?

Anyway, I'm not one of those people with big ears. In fact, I always figured my ears fit fairly close to my head.

Today, I'm not sure though. This morning, while getting into my car I hooked my ear on the window of my car door. Hurts like hell... but I didn't figure it did any damage. Yet, a couple of hours I discovered I'd broken the skin.

Ugh. It was bad enough that it hurt as bad as it did... but to find I really did almost take my ear off.

I hope Vin used something sharper than a car window to take his ear off.

Social networking is fun!

For those who haven't seen it, there is a show in the UK called The IT Crowd. There is one episode in particular featuring the cast addicted to a social networking site called "FriendFace." Pretty funny stuff, as it accurately conveys the current societal obsession with Facebook.

Facebook is today what MySpace was a couple of years ago... and I find I'm wondering if the next great social networking site is just around the corner. I have one friend in particular who is concerned that Facebook is turning into MySpace, based on the wild popularity of the meme "25 Random Things" which has the potential to turn Facebook Notes into something as abused as the MySpace Bulletin.

I'm afraid I don't share his concerns... and I rather enjoyed playing along. It's interesting because I've really enjoyed reading what others have jotted about themselves.

Of course, the oppressive policies of my workplace forbid me to post it from work, but I managed to find the time to compile a list and post it from home.

I had so much fun writing it, that in the interest of attempting to write in this space on a semi-regular basis again... I'm sharing it here.

Enjoy!
