Mike's curious overhang photos are hilarious. Brad has educated me on the origins of the Quiznos' rat-things:

Subject: Quizno's commercials
I'm sure you know by now that the Quizno's commercials are based on the ever-popular "We Like the Moon" animations from rathergood.com. These have been around for a while but I'm surprised Quizno's is using them in their ads. Anyway, you can view "We Like the Moon" at the first link. A newer one that I also like is at the second link. Other material on their page is quite questionable, although some is somewhat funny.

Misti, Becky, and Jared have had colds over the past couple of days. My cold set in last night. I'll probably sound like a duck tomorrow. Becky is funny - we reward her with M&M's every time she successfully goes 'potty' in the toilet (either in her training toilet or in the 'big' toilet, as opposed to in her diapers/Pull-Up's/panties). She gets 1 M&M for every peepee in the toilet, and 3 M&M's for every poopoo. She's getting very good at it, and sure looks forward to it! =)
Bagle.K, Bagle.L and MyDoom.H were discovered this morning. Here's the real question at hand: what happens when we run out of letters in the alphabet?
SCO is a big loser for suing AutoZone and Daimler Chrysler, just for using Linux (which has always heretofore been a free computer operating system - not anymore).
First California, then New York, and now gay marriages in Oregon. Bet you won't see them in Utah!   =)
So I finally break down and install the customizable Google Toolbar to block pop-ups (I'm very 'anti-popup blocking', in principle, because I've seen so many bad implementations of it [most other freeware popup blockers are proven to actually cause *more* popups!]) and put Google searching one click closer that it has been (it's my homepage, so a click on the home button or an alt+home key combination gets me directly to Google), only to find out that WinXP SP2 is going to upgrade Internet Explorer with built-in pop-up blocking. Interesting. I also read that MSN is now offering their own version of a pop-up blocking toolbar, which is hilarious because wouldn't the SP2 update negate the need for most people to install the MSN Toolbar?
I read this article on XML news feeds a few days ago, but forgot to mention it. Basically, just a plug for XML news feeds (RSS, RDF, etc.).
My new favorite Josh Groban song is "You Raise Me Up" (song number 12 on one of the versions of his "Closer" album - there are apparently two different versions of the same album, one with 13 songs, one with 14).
