I don't care how flat you are. I don't care how hot it is outside. Always, always, always wear a bra. Period!

E-Town Boyz Lipsink the Hits
This is one of my new favorite videos. Perhaps it is because I know these guys and think they are wonderful. But despite that little fact, I think this video stands alone as one of the most amazing things ever created. I think it is so hilarious and wish they would make more of these. Totally makes me laugh. Yay Jeff and Darren!

kidnapping is NOT a joke
Another random cab experience: The other night I was late getting to a friend’s house so I jumped in a cab. My cabbie was friendly…a little too friendly if you ask me, but I was already in and it wasn’t too far. We talked fluff—the weather, his job, my job—then things got a little personal. He went on and on about how he wanted to take me out and how beautiful he thought I was. Talk about uncomfortable. After a few minutes of that I decided to make up a boyfriend.
“Yeah, I have a boyfriend and I don’t think that he would appreciate me going out with other men.”
Do you think that deterred him though? Not in the least. “Are you engaged?” “No.” “Do you live together?” “No.” “Do you have kids with him?” “No.” (I should have been a better liar but I think I was thinking it could turn into a missionary opportunity.)
“Well then, we can still go out.” “No, we can’t.”
Silence. I felt a little bad that I was so firm with him until he broke that silence with the following:
“I think I’m going to kidnap you.”
“I’m sorry, what?”
“I think I want to kidnap you and make you go out with me.”
“heh...heh...heh. You’re funny.”
“No, I’m serious. I want to kidnap you.”
At this point I started to get a little nervous and wondered if I should just jump out the next time he pulled up to a light. I grabbed my packages and put them on my lap—just in case—and just tried to downplay his little comment. No such luck though. We kept hitting greens. Finally we came to a light and I told him he could just let me out on the corner.
“No, no! I will take you to the door. And you can’t leave until you give me your number.”
I pulled out my normal excuses and finally got him to just give me his number instead. I entered it into my phone so he would leave me alone and deleted it as soon as I got out of the cab. I’m sure the kidnapping thing was totally a joke, but just for the record, you don’t joke about stuff like that! There are too many crazies out there that really do stuff like that.
