A creepy, freaking out sofa

Posted on April 29th, 2008 in Fun Stuff by Laura

I really don’t think this is a funny photo but it really is so odd, unrealistic, creepy that I thought about posting it. I received this picture by e-mail together with other photos (two of them I already posted before) and this one was the one that really freaked me out.

The animals/reptiles that really scares me the most are snakes. Just the thought of being near one makes me shiver. If I ever had to seat in a sofa, not with really snakes, even fake ones, I’m sure I couldn’t, even if I had special clothes, I’m not taking about bridal lingerie as you might imagine, I mean, a strong sealed suit, I would still be scared.

If you like snakes and you would like to have one of this in your living room, I’m sure there are none for sale. :)

Facebook

Posted on April 22nd, 2008 in Blogging by Laura

I really like the way Facebook works and makes “friends” interact with each other, but I have to face it, I don’t have time to check Facebook everyday.

Facebook is great to meet new friends, to know what they like, what kind of music they listen to, what movies they watch, I would like to send gifts to my friends, write in their fun walls, grow gardens, meet other members with the same movie taste, update my mood, but the truth is I don’t have the time to do so.

What I did was a clean up, I had more then 100 invitations, requests, gifts, etc., etc. and I must confess I delete them all. I also removed some applications I had and never used, so my page is now reduced to only a few applications. I know some people are addicted to Facebook, well I don’t need a drug rehab because I’m not addicted to it, at least for now.

Free program or plugin to hide affiliate

Posted on April 19th, 2008 in Blogging,Programs by Laura

I’m looking for a free program to hide affiliate links. I’ve done a little search and the ones I found although easy to use, it takes a little time to incorporate the link in the post because we have to use FTP. I need a program or plugin I can use directly when I’m writing the post. Nothing so complicated as bpm or a paid program like WP Affiliate Pro.

So, if someone reading this posts knows a plugin to hide affiliate links I will appreciate your comments.

A strange house I must say

Posted on April 15th, 2008 in Curiosities,Fun Stuff by Laura

I found this photo while I was surfing the net. Although it’s not the house of my dreams, I must say, it’s a curious one. For sure it will be difficult to find one available in real estate. It has an humanized figure but doesn’t look very nice.

This next picture is from North Padre Island rentals photos, much more attractive, don’t you think?
