What an increadible time-waster. Love it. 🙂
Just what I needed to help get through the day.
If I could just get some of my coworkers in there, it would be even better!
Peter, thank you for that, and Christine, as long as you leave room for some of MINE, okay.
Sean, it’s a deal!
Thanks Peter; I needed that. Which just goes to show how crappy my day has been thus far.
A friend of mine e-mailed me that snow globe a few years ago, but I believe the introductory text, if any, was different. The globe itself, the people in it, and the sound effects are the same, however.

Yep. Nothing like terrorizing a bunch of defenseless tiny people to get me in the holiday mood.
Now where’s that dámņëd Bottle City of Kandor? I have a birthday coming up soon, and I wanna get into that spirit too……..

Mr. President? Is that you? 🙂

A safe and harmless outlet for megalomaniacal urges, without which I would still wish to subjugate the world, shrink it, and put it into a real snow globe for my shaking pleasure. Until you’ve done that you haven’t really lived, or so the fuschia 15-foot dodo that lives in my garage tells me…
glad you liked our globe.
And speaking of something different…
HAM FOR HANUKKAH!!
Grocery store apologizes for promotional displayFriday, December 7, 2007 5:06 AM
Associated Press NEW YORK—This was REALLY not kosher.
A grocery store in Manhattan made a food faux pas, advertising hams as “Delicious for Chanukah.”
Chanukah, an alternate spelling for Hanukkah, is the eight-day Jewish holiday that began Tuesday evening, and hams as well as pork and other products from pigs can’t be eaten under Jewish dietary laws.
A woman who saw the mistake over the weekend at the Balducci’s store on 14th Street took pictures of the signs and posted them on her blog.
Jennifer Barton, director of marketing, told The Associated Press yesterday that the signs were changed as soon as the error was noted.
She issued an apology on the company Web site, saying the company would be reviewing its employee training.
Ah.. the war on Christmas continues…. :p
Frikkin’ hilarious!
Thanks!
