Winter blues got you down? Just order this CD of eight tracks of encouragement from someone you don’t know and continuous cheers JUST FOR YOU from an “audience of 30,000!” With tracks like “We Believe in You,” “Thank You My Friend,” and “Great Job” (”praising you for being a hard worker,” the site says), you’ll be feeling great about yourself in no time. This CD is even endorsed by Ellen DeGeneres (?!). If you don’t want to buy the album, you can download an mp3 of 5:45 of applause for only $4.95. The CD is $16.95, but who can put a price on happiness?
I feel like it’s too easy to make a snarky comment about this, so I’ll just let you all judge for yourselves. Or you can watch their TV advert, which is as convincing as Stacker 2.

He apparently had a great time, was at the mall by 4am, stayed up for 20 hours straight, jogged in place a lot, went to a ball, was inspired, etc.
Sounds good to me, I was stuck with CBS’ HD feed, CNN, and ABC online…
Check out his whole experience here.

So the Cute Things Falling Asleep site is a nice salve for the absence of the puppy-cam. Basically it’s a site full of puppies, parrots, and polar bears all fighting the zzz’s. I found this bear/puppy creature to be one of the cutest of the bunch in a cute I-don’t-know-what-you-are kind of way, and apparently his name is Spudgy which is the icing. If that doesn’t put you over the edge, you should visit his personal website.

Since I just got back from London (more pictures to come) and shot most everything with a $180 camera, and was mostly pleased with the results, it’s fitting that I come across this article from Ken Rockwell, who is a pro photographer.
The results might surpise you… Or maybe they won’t.
Basically, if you have a decent camera and can use it well, you can get some amazing shots.
