Dear Tina - My mom wants to friend me on Facebook

Dear Tina,
My mom wants to friend me on facebook and stuff just so she can spy on me and that’s like so not fair. OMG, why can't she like leave me alone to have my own friends and like not get all up in my business and stuff. Dude, facebook is for young people anyway. It's so not fair. She said if I don't accept her request she will like ground me and stuff and take my cell phone away.

What can I do?

WTF? - Roundabouts

Have you ever tried to negotiate a roundabout at the same time as someone who has no concept of driving etiquette, highway rules or geometry?

The roundabout is an incredibly simple concept to understand: Take geometry's simplest shape, the circle, and place it in the center of an intersection as a means of allowing an almost continuous flow of traffic to circumnavigate the island and to pass through said intersection from any direction with minimal interruption to the journey.

Wow, now that I write it down, it starts to sound complicated. Interceding the continental flow of circumcision???
The roundabout - simplicity in it's purest form

NFL Mascot eats cheerleader

The Tennessee Titans cheer squad are having a tough time of it since last season's mascot quit and ran off with the costume only hours before the big opening game against the Oakland Raiders. They had to find both a replacement person and replacement costume. Sorry, but it is just a person in a costume and so is Santa, kids!
