I Hope PETA Doesn't Freak Out

Ok, I'm a cat lover. I have two extremely spoiled felines staring at me as I write this. And while a little piece of me finds this sick, the rest of me can't stop laughing. My dad sent me this Cat Bowling game earlier this week in celebration of Halloween and it's soooo much fun! And don't worry; no cartoon cats were hurt in the making of this game.

Making the World a Better (More Grammatically Correct) Place

It looks like someone got pretty upset by the all-too-common incorrect usage of "its" and "it's" and decided to dedicate a webpage to the topic. If you ever find yourself confused, check out this simple info page and all your questions will be answered. Man, I love grammar geeks.

Useless and Oh So Cliché

Admittedly, I'm not sure when one might need this but Cliché Finder is an interesting site nonetheless. With over 3,300 clichés indexed, you'll find one to suit your needs, whatever they may be. Search any word or phrase and you'll be presented with a list of cliché sayings that use your search term. 

Desktop Fun

My friends who have Mac computers always have a really fun toolbar across the bottom or side of their desktops. The icons all blow up and animate a little bit when you scroll over them. This is the one feature I actually really like about Macs (Mac lovers: please don't email me to explain all of the wonderful features I'm missing out on with my PC...I'm just not that interested). Now that I've found ObjectDock, I don't have to envy my Mac friends' fun, animated desktops. This application enables PC users to organize their shortcuts, programs and running tasks into a similar style toolbar. It's customizable (you can choose the "docklets" you want to appear) and you can even use your own photos for the icons.
