Weird emails and Spozdog reminders / Cremation, suicide notes, and morbid songs

Jen emailed us a link to this video about climate change. Interesting... perhaps I'll look at it later and maybe sign the petition too, but I need to shower before 24. I know there's still time before the show starts at 9, but considering I multi-task / get distracted easily, it's good to shower NOW! To give you an example, I got an email at about 10:15 last night, and didn't answer it till almost 2 AM since I was distracted by Corey / sentence structure in blog posts / editing / tagging. Ah well, it's all good!

Speaking of email, I got a response from Andrea saying that it was her bad that she spelled my name wrong. Hey, I had to bug her about it even though I know she didn't mean it! She'd just finished talking to Lesley, and she makes mistakes in late-night email. Although she DID put "that's probably way" instead of "that's probably why" in her explanation at 6:35, so I'm sure it's not just confined to late nights. ;)

Also got an email from Eric, who says he wants to make pita and hummus instead for Friday. As long as it's not a spozdog, I can deal with that! (hot dog, melted cheese, BBQ sauce, and hummus... "flavor country when you're drunk," according to Spoz!)

Morbid Link Du Jour!

Bernard sends a link to the perfect site for the morbid voyeur in all of us: a page of allegedly real suicide notes. As Bernard says, Lord knows we've all written a few in our time.

Morbid Song Du Jour!

Cathy sends The Morbid Song - which the Comtesse can especially relate to!

If you're "MONSTROUS" and you know it, CLAP YOUR HANDS!
If you're a "SICKO" and you know it, CLAP YOUR HANDS!
If you're "HORRID" and you know it, then your face will surely show it.
If you're "MORBID" and you know it, CLAP YOUR HANDS!

If you're "DISMAL" and you know it, STOMP YOUR FEET!
If you're "LOATHSOME" and you know it, STOMP YOUR FEET!
If you're "HIDEOUS" and you know it, then your face will surely show it.
If you're "MORBID" and you know it, STOMP YOUR FEET!

If you're "MACABRE" and you know it, SHOUT HURRAY!
If you're "ODIOUS" and you know it, SHOUT HURRAY!
If you're "DISGRACEFUL" and you know it, then your face will surely show it.

Hahahaha. This is definitely NOT one I'll be teaching the kids at Sunday School since I'd probably get kicked out of there for doing so! o_O
