Marc was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was really angry.  She told him, 'Tomorrow morning I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in less than 10 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE!!'  The next morning Marc got up early and left for work.  When his wife woke up she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway.  Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, and brought the box back in the house.  She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale. Marc has been missing since Friday. Please pray for him.

I'm amazed just how stupid the average person is. I was playing Texas Holdem on Party Poker and chatting with the other players. Several players were insisting that pocket rockets (AA) wins only 33% of the time when all-in preflop. I almost wanted to play for real money. The average person is so dumb.

This might be the funniest thing I've ever seen. Thanks Robin!

I can't wait for next summer.

Here's an ethical question for my readers. Hypothetical, of course. This couldn't really have happened. Or did it? Let's say, I call up this guy who works for a major Web 2.0 company (ya the biggest one) and I tell him what I'm up to on one of my website, some of which, might strike some fear in some of the major blogs, like say, TechCrunch. This guy then emails someone named Brian at TechCrunch and spills everything that I told him in our private phone conversation. Not that I assumed anything would be off-the-record, I didn't really care, but I'm wondering what it might say about this person. What do you think?

I was watching the U.S. Open women's final and near the last point, I flipped over to the Wikipedia on Justine Henin, the eventual winner. It appears many users will already editing her page to include her win, even before she actually won. You may not be able to use Wikipedia as a reliable historical reference, but you can use it to predict the future.

WATER

#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population)

#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.

#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%.

#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.

#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?

COKE

#1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.

#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.

#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.

#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.

#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years!
