lady gaga, your crazy is showing

i was just watching kelly rowland sing on so you think you can dance, and i remembered back in the day when i had never heard of lady gaga and she performed just dance on the show.

i looked it up so i could share it with you and we could all remember together.

how graceful

omg will you get a load of this ridiculous creature? it can barely control its body!

apparently, this sea lion, nicknamed snoopy, was reported to have been running around the ocean bitin' on kids' trouser legs, and just being mischievous in general. the police hauled him up on board for a good spanking when he tried to hijack the boat. he even honked the horn!!!

you know what this reminds me of, don't you?

thx joey!

another good one

health alert

big thanks to g. animalz for her heartfelt missive on ankle breaks and balance and shit earlier.

along the same lines, i wanted to share some pictures from avid 2Pz reader and commenter and sister, Melissa.

Two weeks ago, i noticed that the door to her bedroom had been left open (it wasn't me and mom denies it). i warily peeked inside only to discover the bloody truth. Kismet had massacred Samantha Parkington, Melissa's prized American Girl Doll (that mom claims she NEVER played with). Now Kismet had gotten a taste for poor Samantha a couple months ago when he chomped on her foot, but a strategically placed sock hid the damage and soothed Melissa's conscience. Samantha was now missing all the fingers from her left hand. Gulp.

The good news is that after a brief discussion with American Girl customer service, and some arguing with mom about how we were going to afford the medical bills, Ms. Parkington was shipped off to New York for some cosmetic surgery. She is now recovering in Nashville, far away from her abusive boyfriend Kismet, and we are all happy to report that she is good as new.

Thanks American Girl!

bad boy Kis. ;(

pet-bonding chair

South Korean designer Kim HyunJoo has designed a combined chair and dog kennel intended to help dog owners bond with their pets. Called Happily Ever, the seat has a soft pad for the owner to sit on and a handle for moving it around. The dog can sit inside or on a slightly lower platform next to its owner.

Happily Ever is a chair combined with a dog house that has been designed to promote various scenarios for friendship and bonding between dogs and owners through their sharing of an object. (dezeen)

Medical news: your body is a f***ing joke

The New York Times is reporting breaking medical news: if you have a hard time with balance you might sprain your ankles lots, and visa versa. "People with bad ankles have bad balance."

Improving your balance could reduce the risk of ankle injury and especially multiple ankle injuries, and sprainers often re-sprain quickly after the first injury. The way to improved balance is the old trick: stand on one leg for a while, as still as you can, then try it whit the other leg. Sounds like a perfect subway platform activity. Do you hear that, idiots! Do you know were your feet even are?

Why should balance training prevent ankle sprains? The reasons are both obvious and quite subtle. Until recently, clinicians thought that ankle sprains were primarily a matter of overstretched, traumatized ligaments. Tape or brace the joint, relieve pressure on the sore tissue, and a person should heal fully, they thought. But that approach ignored the role of the central nervous system, which is intimately tied in to every joint. “There are neural receptors in ligaments,” says Jay Hertel, an associate professor of kinesiology at the University of Virginia and an expert on the ankle. When you damage the ligament, “you damage the neuro-receptors as well. Your brain no longer receives reliable signals” from the ankle about how your ankle and foot are positioned in relation to the ground. Your proprioception — your sense of your body’s position in space — is impaired. You’re less stable and more prone to falling over and re-injuring yourself. --NYT

After reading this article, I sauntered over to my favorite website Texas A&M Engineering, and read about how they're helping people stop falling, especially if you're over 65. Apparently 1 in 3 elderlies will fall each year. And its not just a little inconvenience, as 1 in 4 of those who fall will die on the bathroom floor. Those engineers down in Texas are making an ankle brace with a chip inside that buzzes when it senses an ankle roll, so you fix yourself.

no words.

sleep support for your heavy ass ta-ta's. thx joey!
