Yahoo! News is reporting that President Obama might have a spooky twin.
Yahoo News via Reuters is reporting this most-emailed image of an Indonesian man who has a spooky resemblance to President Obama. I just find this completely weird. My non-scientific hypothesis is that maybe there’s only but so many combinations of ways DNA can arrange your face; after a certain point, the combinations must repeat. Their resemblance is so similar I’m almost tempted to say it’s the offspring of PhotoShop, rather than mother nature.
After all remember we got dupped a few months ago with those ”undiscovered tribe” photos, and it turns out it was just some folks with spandex, red paint and some Nikes. Or something like that.
How bout this one?
An Australian Customs handout shows a man caught with two live pigeons stuffed in his pants as he got off a flight from the Middle East - (AFP/HO/Australian Customs) From Yahoo!
Is that a pigeon in your pants or are you just happy to see me?
More from Yahoo!, this fool drove his van of a cliff near Grand Junction in Colorado in an attempt to committ suicide. His van got stuck and he’s alive. *shakes head* Now, suicide is no laughing matter, however, if you’re unsuccessful at the attempt you just leave yourself open for all kinds of jokes.
My question is why would anyone want to ruin a perfectly good 1987 Dodge Van?

Rejuvenate is Eartha Kitt's guide to staying fit. The late Kitt is an inspiration to single women. (Image from Simon & Schuster Inc.)
Single at age 81 looks damn good if you follow the life and times of multi-faceted performer Eartha Kitt.
Kitt, one of the original triple-threats, died on December 25 in Connecticut. Her career spanned six decades on stage, screen, and audio. Catwoman wasn’t Catwoman until Kitt purred her way into the role during the Batman television series in 1967. And nobody’s looked at Santa the same after she dropped the hit “Santa Baby” in 1954.
Her career accomplishments include winning two Emmys and scoring nominations for Tonys and Grammys. She found her niche in performing after auditioning for an international dance troupe as a teen, and she didn’t stop. Ever. Weeks before she died, she concluded taping for a PBS special that will air in February 2009. She penned three autobiographies and, in 2001, a guide to staying physically fit, Rejuvenate.
She stood up and spoke out for what she believed in: being blacklisted in the U.S. for speaking out against the Vietnam War and standing up for an end to racism by performing in South Africa.
Kitt, who was married for five years, remained single for most of her life, having high-profile relationships including renown writer Orson Welles, and Revlon founder Charles Revson. She was abused as a child in South Carolina, shipped off to live with an aunt in New York, then abused some more.
Her life should inspire single women. She triumphed over a troubled past. She had the relationships that she wanted, how she wanted. While it’s nice to think marriage is forever, the reality is that sometimes it doesn’t work out like that and it’s nicer when we are enlightened enough to accept that it doesn’t have to.
Your happiness and legacy should not depend on being Ms. Right.
Like Kitt’s, it should depend on doing what you love, standing up for what you believe in and speaking out for what’s right in your heart.

Uncategorized Coffee and liquor topped the list of can-I-still-haves and I-can’t-give-that-ups that flooded the question and answer period after a presentation on Toxicity in America and its Relation to Health and Disease Issues hosted by Isagenix on Thursday, November 12, 2008 at The Dish in the Black Rock section of Bridgeport, CT.
From left, Dr. Veronica Waks and Isagenix Consultant Donna Keys.
The presentation was given by Dr. Veronica Waks who began her career as a physician nearly two decades ago. Two years ago, she began practicing naturopathic medicine because she “got tired of pushing pills”.
“There are toxic substances always around us,” said Waks. “My goal is to make people healthy.”
“Whatever you apply on your skin will end up in your blood stream,” said Waks holding up a cosmetic cream after rattling off a list of ingredients that maybe no one in the crowd could spell or guess the meaning. Read more…
