Vuvuzela Gets Banned again!

Vuvuzela Update!!!


Pamplona, Spain has banned the blowing of Vuvuzela horns during today's Running of the Bulls because of the annoying sound they produce.

For those of you looking forward to the world cup coming to an end, you'll be happy to know that Shakira will be performing at the World Cup closing ceremony.  Something gets me to thinking thats when thousands of soccer fans will then go home - after shaking the drool out of their vuvuzelas.

Tired of that damn vuvuzela horn???  Maybe this will make you feel better...

Gotta love the emotion that soccer incites!

Alternate ending for LOST fans!

Forgive me if I sounded even more spaced out as usual this morning, it's just that I'm still recovering form that LOST finale.  In fact I'm begining to think that's the other reason they called the show that.  Now that it's done I truly have a lost, empty sort of feeling.  If you didn't like the ending, here is an alternate ending you might like....
