Chinglish

My son received a flashlight for Christmas and, predictably, it was made in China. The Chinglish instructions written on the box made me laugh. Excerpt:

"The skull is opened before the use..."
I didn't know that flashlight operation involved a frontal lobotomy...

Click on the pic and read the rest of the box.

Christmas Lights

This entry should have been up a few days ago but now that all you have to look forward too are the bills coming in January, here are a few things to make you smile beforehand.

Want to compare how your neighbor with their out of control Christmas decorations compares to others? Well go over to Ugly Christmas Lights and compare.

Two You Tube vids on people who set their lights to music. I've enjoyed both on You Tube, but not sure I would be as happy if a neighbor did it with speakers every 15 minutes.

The song is called Wizards in Winter, and it's performed by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. The Music is taken from "The Lost Christmas Eve" Album. (Hat tip You Tube commentator dimis3507grecan )




The second video has the Peanuts theme song. Very good too.



Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.
