What my Wife does on the Internet

Long sabbatical. Work has been crazy first it was the very public and stressful reorganization and layoffs-never before has drinking at work not only been so widely accepted, but encouraged, the people who would usually disapprove were just as likely to get let go as you were so we were all in the same boat. In the new world I find that instead of one new job, I have one new job, one old job, and a brand new fill in job. The last two are only temporary, so it goes.

Wanted to share this little dandy experience with you, because quite frankly I need to turn my mind off work in other ways besides summer reruns, although I am being reminded that "Arrested Developement" is the funniest television show ever made.

I was browsing the internet the other day, seeing if anything was on when I noticed something jump off the screen at me. I want to share those screen shots with you to see if you see it too.
You may have to click on the image to see it larger/clearer
It took me some time at first to find what it was that struck me. At first all I knew is that there was something very alarming on the page, that freightened me. If you are playing at home and trying to find what is wrong with this screen I will give you hint number one. It isn't that I'm logged in to ESPN as Marcus.
I'm not Marcus. He is a buddy of mine and he had access to ESPN Insider, but his subscription that he scammed from some promotional game online ran out so I'm thinking of ending the friendship with him, he's really just dead weight at this point.
This is Marcus...with a drunk guy who passed out on a bench in a Vegas casino. Not crucial to the story but a good picture nonetheless.

Back to the reason for the post. Here is a tighter snapshot on what caught my attention. Lets see if you can find it now.And one more just to be sure we are all reading this correctly.
Yes in the Google Search Bar it says "Skull Crush." What is most freightening is that I know I didn't search for this, so it only leaves one other person with access to the computer who could have searched for it; my lovely innocent wife. It appears that during her free time my Wife enjoyes doing google searches for some really weird stuff. If you've met her I know that this may be difficult for you to believe but I think my wife may be planning something terrible! I just wanted to make sure that I shared this with everybody so that if I die from head trauma, it might be worth taking a look at my wife as a suspect. I love her and she says she would never do anything to hurt me, but Google is telling me something completely different.

Ok I talked to my wife about this and she claims it was about getting tips on better technique for doing the exercise called "skull crushers" but until I see her actually doing them I remain suspicious.

Seriously though this is just a big joke; at least the part where I fear my Wife might kill me part. Everything else is true. I did see the search "Skull Crush" and it did freak me out that my wife was looking that kind of stuff up. Drunk passed out guy; he's real too.

When is Creepy not Creepy

I have an important question to pose to the readership. I must establish a few givens in this equation first. So if you're a 25 year old and you spot a 16 year old and you stare you're creepy. Also if you're a 25 year old and you see a 16 year old and say she's "hot" that is also creepy.

Now what if that 16 year old is a picture of your wife when she was 16 and you stare and say she's "hot" Is that still creepy?

Quick Update

Important news flash! My niece has a 11 toes. That isn't the big news; I noticed this the first time I held her, I thought it was freaking awesome then, and I find it even more awesome now. The news is that apparently it is genetic and since she is my brother's daughter that makes my brother a carrier, and since I am my brother's...brother...I'm a carrier. Slowly it is sinking in that I GOT ROBBED! I got an 11th toe in me somewhere and I plan on doing my best to grow it.

Live Long and Prosper!

I'm not a Trekkie but I had to put that there in the hopes that my Manager, a Star Wars fanatic would see it and become agitated because once I made the assumption that since she liked Star Wars that she would at least tolerate Star Trek. I was very wrong and she became very upset that I would even consider them to be on the same level.

Geena, Are we still on for the Vulcan Mind Melding during lunch tomorrow?
