OBSERVATIONS ON A LAZY SUNDAY

-There is a "Merlion" statue just erected in a Cupertino strip mall. After some research I'm guessing that the establishment is Singaporean. Driving down Stevens Creek and seeing this caught me off-guard.

-Along the same stretch of road...a bumper sticker on a minivan that read "My other car is a stagecoach." Now, really? Well my other car is a chariot! Beat that!

-"Bear" Grylls is a God among men. I just watched an episode of Man Vs. Wild - Everglades and he has pushes all of the limits that the Croc Hunter established. Basically think of this show like the Croc Hunter, except instead of just toying with the animals, the host hunts them down with a knife and eats them! That carpenter ant larvae looked appetizing.

Velvet-voiced L.B. slides through verbage like a game of Scrabble between English professors.

Smoking several packs to produce intricate juxtaposed descriptions of unusual imagery.
"Attention Span"

This female version of the Beastie Boys deliver it NYC style with a punch of confidence.

3 IN THE WORLD

Get a load of this watch! Only 3 made in the entire world! The light shines through diamonds! OMG.

I was looking at watches since a friend was shopping for some. I don't really need one but I think it's one of those fetishes I have. An expensive one that I cannot fulfill. I seem to have this with watches and and more notably Adidas Track Jackets. ;)
