Hey!  Just wanted to let everyone know I truly appreciate the donut input.  I had the raspberry jelly, boston creme and a powered something or other.  We bought two dozen donuts and I am done for another three years.

I really don't know what is about donuts.  I get my fill and I am done.

If you or someone you know purchased any of Skechers’ footwear called Shape-ups, Resistance Runner, Shape-ups Toners/Trainers, and Tone-ups since August 1, 2008, you could get a refund!  The FTC has determined that Skecher's claims about these "toning shoes" were unfounded and false.

For more information and to apply for a refund, see the following site:

If you have the ability to add new tags, I'd appreciate it if you'd consider adding some or all of these.

( Requested new tags with example posts )

If you are a tagger and you have tags you'd like to see, this might be a good opportunity to speak up.

This is a long shot, but do any of our AMAers live in the Washington, DC area? I'll be living there this summer and I'm looking for a part-time job from June-August.

I have entered my first Woot.com shirt derby! If you have purchased something from woot.com before you are allowed to vote. Please take a look at my design, if you like it, please vote and pass it along to your friends. I appreciate any support AMA!

Pinecone Research gave me a registration link to pimp out to people!  I get nothing in return for doing this--I'm simply trying to pass on a way to earn a few extra bucks each month~ :)  Registration links are really hard to come by, so please consider signing up--you can always just abandon the site if it's not for you.

I've been a member of Pinecone Research since September and have received anywhere from 1-3 surveys per month in that time.  For each of those surveys, I got a $3 check.  Not a ton, I know, but every dollar helps in this economy!  I've also been given products from big-name brands to test out before they're released to the public!

LJ is currently acting like it can't find its own ass with both hands and a map. I'm getting errors all over the place and its slower than molasses in an igloo in December the rest of the time. Is it acting up for anyone else?

I just got an e-mail from Simon Bale.
It was spam in the end, but definitely a wtf moment.

My brother-from-another-mother has made a hilarious short film. After more than a year of submitting it to film festivals and being rejected over and over again, it has finally made it into one.

Please take about 7 minutes of your time to watch this very tongue-in-cheek promo he has made. And then, if you're feeling generous, click on the link to purchase a button, poster, DVD of the film or more! I recommend the DVD. You can even watch the trailer for it here.

And if you're anywhere near LA, I highly suggest heading to the LA Comedy Fest on April 23 to watch this movie. It'll be 13 minutes of your life that you won't mind spending in a theater :D

I really believe in this tiny little film. I still haven't seen the final version. I only saw a rough cut of it and was busting a gut laughing. It's a LOT of poop humor (I mean, obviously, it's about IBS), but it's hilarious.

Please support it if you can. Even just a little bit.

HAPPY O HOLIEST OF BUNNDAYS. FOR ON THIS DAY, THE BUNN HATH DESCENDED UPON US WITH OFFERINGS OF CHOCOLATE AND FLUFFY AFFECTION. MAY THE BUN SHINE HIS WHISKERS UPON YOU AND BE GRACIOUS UNTO YOU. ABUN.
