Another Use of Duct Tape [Photo]

Ladies and Gentlemen- there is another use of duct tape...as seen ONLY in Shreveport.

I Got Moved

So, I've been complaining for the last year to everyone except people at work about my desk being right at the door. So, my back is to the door. This means if anyone went postal and ran for the first person- that person would be me. This has kept me from putting makeup on at my desk (because you know, it's unsafe to do while driving)...

Best. Prank. Ever

My bff has an irrational disdain for one of my ex's. He wasn't even the worst of all the ex's...he was just a big idiot that made her conceive evil plots against him. Her first idea was to get one of those big fish you get in the grocery store...

Fabio’s Search Engine [VIDEO]

Stop Searching- we have found him. Fabio's Search Engine! Life would be so much funnier with a little more Fabio in it. Fabios - watch more funny videos

Bald Isn’t For Everybody…

I was very happy when the men of the world realized a bald head is a better alternative to a comb over. Mr. Clean is better than THAT ANY day, but it's not been a rule everyone should follow. It's almost like a confidence booster...it's kinda like wearing makeup that enhances your eyes...

Instant Message Fail. I Got Hacked, Son!

I have been messaging a friend from high school a lot lately because he and his wife have been helping out so much on the Pray for Emma window sticker movement. They have been making window stickers for us and are just overall amazing people, so I love getting the chance to see or talk to them...

Failure to Communicate

One of my favorite games to play as a kid (besides 7 Up, which I can't remember how to play anymore) was that game you played where you whispered something around the room. It was always interesting to find out if the person at the end of the line heard what you heard...

Pray For Emma

Last week, I asked for prayers as Emma went to St. Jude for her regular checkup. For the first time in 2 years, she didn’t come home with good news. In fact, she and her dad are heading back up there in a few days to confirm that the doctors believe her tumor has gone from a Stage 1 to a Stage 4 in 3 months...

My Take on the Bachelor Suit

So, two Nashville guys are suing ABC for discrimination. One an ex football player and the other, a multi-business owner, say they auditioned for The Bachelor, but believe they were purposely snubbed. One says he made it to the 2nd round of auditions, but his interview only lasted 20 minutes, while others lasted 45...

Useless Info: How to Turn Milk to Stone [VIDEO]

This is the most bizarre thing I have ever seen. How does one even think of this? I guess this is what happens when you leave stuff in the fridge too long. Or, when you live in the STONE ages...HA!

Kids and Cell Phones

I never understood why parents give kids cellphones at a younger and younger age. One day, we were walking into church, and Emma asks when she can get a cellphone. Her daddy says something about being only 8 years old and the explanation was interrupted by a little girl that was sitting on the curb as we walked by...

The Funniest Things I Saw This Week [PHOTO]

There are so many things that we see that are funny. Some are innocent, some are horrible, but the one thing in common is, they all make us laugh. Enjoy.
