Further Proof that Tom Cruise is a Nut…

“I’ve got Katie tucked away, so no one will get to us until my child is born — and until I want them to.”

The man is whacked. Total nutcase. I like the bit in the article about how he won’t let her be like Nicole. Nice. Really nice.

Matchbox Pinhole Camera…

Oh my goodness. This is SO COOL. You can make a pinhole camera that uses 35mm film with a Matchbox! Check out the directions. I know what I’m doing this weekend! (Inbetween taking tests, knitting, watching the Olympics and studying. You know, in all my spare time.) [via ReadyMade Blog.]

Speaking of studying – I have my first Biology lab practical tomorrow. I’m terrified. I have to know Phylums and Genus names for a ton of itty-bitty things. (Bacteria, molds, fungus, algae, etc.) The test will be timed and is something like 150 questions long. I’m freaking out. There is no way. No way! I guess if I go back to reviewing the CD of images instead of reading about pinhole cameras, that might be a good start though. Sigh.

Kids These Days…

Jason informed Mike tonight on the way home from the Scout meeting that he needs 10 magazines that he can cut up to take to school on Wednesday for English class. Then he added that they have to be age appropriate.

Mike told him, “Darn, then I’m not sending you with Playboy.”

Jason asked, “Huh? What’s that?”

Mike told him that was the right answer. Kids these days – thanks to the Internet, they have no clue what Playboy even is…

Now I’m Curious…

How on earth does Katie Holmes go from looking rather pregnant on January 14th, to having a flat stomach on January 15th? [Via And Knitting.]

Seriously? That just doesn’t make sense at all. (Maybe this post should go under my “Abducted by Aliens” category too? *snark*)
