Just something funny that I saw in our local Weis Supermarket this afternoon. I was not aware that yams, collard greens, fish frys and sweet potato pie was so European. Despite how European Sylvia looks, I’m think there was a mistake here.

Heaven, Hell and the Funerals in between
I am a huge StumbleUpon user and I am generally amazed about how this little add on to Firefox can pick out some of the most poignant sites to present to me. Understandably, I have fed it several thousands of thumbs up and thumbs down so it probably knows me better than I know myself. [...]

Now I don’t mind some scents of candles. I can tolerate Pumpkin Spice or Cinnamon scented ones but when you break out the fruity crap I go crazy.

Exactly what is wrong with this country…
… oh wait. This didn’t happen in the US. Amazingly enough, British parents are just as dumb as American ones. Below are a few snippets but you can read the whole article here.
