This is a blog of random things that I find interesting, moving, intriguing and possibly meaningless. On the other hand, it could very well have a few cherished thoughts and ideas that could change the way one thinks about the way life continues around them.
Welcome to A Special Place
Our world is ever changing and fast paced. We are faced with a crumbling economy, the ever impeding threat of terrorism, and natural disasters. We're bombarded on a daily basis with noise, traffic, groceries, work, school, parties etc. We seldom sit and rest our minds anymore. Even more seldom than this, we rarely hear or see anything "good". I don't know about you, but I think it's time for some breathing space.
You have come to such a place. Take your shoes off, put your feet up, grab a cup of tea, coffee or water (for people like myself who should be banned from caffeine) and take a little break.

Earth from Above
I recently came across this site and found it to be very interesting.
Sometimes when we are living life we lose our perspective. We don't quite have the ability to take things in from a different point of view because our view is usually the same. A while ago I came across this site that allows us to see things from a different angle. Please click on the links below for a sweet view of our beautiful planet earth.

Please Don't Eat This! Wow A Real Life 12-Year Old Hamburger!
It's been said that the older we get, the better we age. Some kind of saying about fine wine or something to that effect. In any case.....I would love the have the secret that allows you to look the same 12 years later (if not better). I mean - is such a fountain of youth really available today? Where may I partake of such delicate nectar?
Well, look no further! I have found it in McDonald's my friend.
I found this to be very shocking. I've seen something similar to this in the past....this just served as a reminder for me as to why I don't eat at this establishment. I am very interested to know your thoughts on this.
Please take a gander at these actual posts before you watch the video. Very strange indeed. There is a link on this post that will give you much more detail about said miracle burger.

Can you tell which one of these beauties is a newborn and which is an elder? If you guessed the 12 year old to be the one on the right....then you my friend are Incorrect.............awwww...so sorry. The hamburger on the left is from 1996, the one on the right is from 2008.
Okay..still not convinced? Take a gander at this simple clip from the movie Supersize Me http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0390521/ for a bit of shocking but true insight. All I want to know is what is up with the French Fries?
WARNING: If you have a sensitive or weak stomach....you may not want to look at this. At the very least, please don't watch it while you are eating a meal. If you can stomach it, I think you will find it to be very informative.

Wow - These Look Amazing
I enjoy reading about Cake Wrecks http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/ on a daily basis. Not sure why, but I believe I am attracted to the strange mixture of gooey frosting, flour and sugar mixtures. They fascinate me.
This post was really a good one as I remember watching the Muppet Show every week. These look so fantastic....not sure I'd want to eat it.

Hmmm Not Sure Why, but I Did - UPDATE
Well, yesterday I had to return Arkadia to her original owners. I was indeed allergic to her and she was sad.....since previous owners just lived downstairs from us. After much thought, I decided it was best to return her. I liked her a lot, but life happens sometimes.
I am grateful to have had the chance to meet her, and have her in our home for the short season.
Till next time..........
be blessed!

The Maltese Falcon - The 300ft Mega Yacht
$i30M Yacht I found this to be very interesting today...the first video is a little background clip of the yacht....owner, cost, specs.
The second is a video of this huge wonder sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge for the first time ever on Saturday September 27, 2008.
Enjoy

Hmmm....Not Sure Why - But I Did
Have you ever had a desire to do something and not sure why you did it or wanted it? I am in that place today. For several months I'd been looking for a pet. I'd all but given up on finding one. I'd gone through several adoption places, enough kennels and pounds that I could probably tell you what kind of dogs they had each week.
After a series of unexpected events, I have acquired a new member to my family.....unfortunately, not yet of the human sort. It's a temporary arrangement for me as I have to assess whether I am allergic to said family member. Her name is Arkadia (I don't know why that name was chosen by the previous owners, but I don't want the hassle of adjusting the name.). She is a Chihuahua who doesn't like her crate. As far as I know, she is almost 3 yrs old (Nov 10th is her birthday) and she's doesn't weigh more than 4lbs.....she may be a little heavier, but not much. She loves riding in the car and taking long walks on the beach.
