Thanks to everyone for your encouragement while I struggle with quitting cigarettes! It means a lot to have so many people rooting for me, especially those who have gone through this. Joel mentioned that it was probably illegal to quit in Kentucky. He’s got a point, there are so many smokers here that anywhere else should be less tempting, but don’t fret about the tobacco farmers; they are starting to raise goats and shrimp instead. They won’t make any money, but hey, its Kentucky! Nobody makes any money here!
Today’s post title was suggested by Carl. I’m always happy to get suggestions or submissions! Please direct your attention to a couple of new additions to my sidebar. Near the top is a custom search engine from Rollyo. Pull down the menu, and you can search this site, my blogroll sites, or the web. Nifty, huh? Farther down I have a counter to display how long I’ve gone without a smoke. (Thanks, FTS!) The long decimal represents Kentucky’s extremely minimal cigarette tax (High income tax on low-income citizens, but hands off the smokers). Still not sure how many days I have to go to claim my reward, but each day is another milestone.
The number of visitors to this site really took a tumble after I lost the ability to load blogspot.com, but its looking up now. Hugs to Prydwen, Carl, and CC for sending so many my way. The real hero is still Cy the Cyclops Kitten. That little one-eyed dead cat landed me a cherry spot on Yahoo Search and brought me tons of visitors from all over the world. And he’s still around! The Seven Deadly Sinners have resurrected Cy in comic-boook form.
You’ve heard about taking life’s lemons and making lemonade... Gizmodo had a contest for songs made from computer sounds, specificly the sound of a dying harddrive. The winners are are worth a listen!

I have posted the Anagram Genius before, but its worth posting again because of this article by Doug Yurchey about celebrity’s anagrams and how eerily descriptive they are. I remember anagramming Clueless in Carolina to Alleluia! Nice Scorns, and The Mechanical Philosopher to Oh Hell! Cheapish Importance, so I went back and anagrammed some more of my favorite blogs.
It Occurred To Me..... Mediocre to curt
Old Horsetail Snake..... Tornado-like hassle
Follow That Star..... Total farts howl
Wulfweard the White..... Wrathful, white weed
The Happy Catholic..... Hypothetical chap
The Naked Ovary..... Over hated Yank
Lazy Blogger..... Lazy boggler (See, even the program got lazy on that one!)

A TRIP TO MT. SINAI (Thanks, Wendy!)
Smith climbs to the top of Mt. Sinai to get close enough to talk to God.
Looking up, he asks the Lord, " God, what does a million years mean to you?"
The Lord replies, "A minute."
Smith asks, "And what does a million dollars mean to you?"
The Lord replies, "A penny."
Smith asks, "Can I have a penny?"
The Lord replies, "In a minute."

Thought for today: Give me ambiguity or give me something else.

This place is an education, lol, and I haven't even clicked on the links yet! Love the Star Wars quotes - I'll never watch it and know innocence again!

I'm constantly amazed at how much work you seem to put into your blog. Great blog.
