PAYPAL SHOCK and POOT.

A while back I was looking at laptops for the sake of possibly getting a new one at some point in the future. So as a goof, I posted a donation link near the bottom of the blog page (under links). I figure with all of the jokesters that read this blog on a daily basis, I'd raise about 2 bucks for the project and get a good laugh out of it in the process.

After today's post I started looking at the blog to see what changes I could make to it (eliminate some links, possibly change backgrounds, etc.). I noticed the donation link and was all set to delete it when I decided to check it. I figure, one more good laugh before I hit "DELETE". While expecting to see something like "0.00" in the account, imagine my surprise when I saw:

"$32.74".


Wow. While $32.74 won't get me keyboard button, let alone a laptop, I still found it rather humorous that someone actually donated to the "Laptop Fund" in the first place. Giddy-up!


Only in America.

P.S.- I was asked by ENERGIZER BUNNY to use the word "POOTED" in my blog post for today. Why? I'm not quite sure- she's infatuated with the word for some reason. Maybe it's a cute way of saying "fart or shit", without looking crass.

I took the time to google the word "POOT" and came up with the following (from Urban Dictionary.com):

I think you get the gist of what it is.

I'm not sure how I could incorporate such a word into a blog posting; unless I talk about how my Cleveland Indians "POOT" the bed last night against Boston (which they did). I could possibly use the word to describe how one of my regulars pulled a "POOTY" move by "skipping out on his bill" last night (which I paid for and will hunt you down btw)....; Or I can simply recall how I had to make a quick emergency exit to the executive washroom to take a POOT after eating some spicy chicken that someone made for me.

Now that I think about it, I guess it isn't all that difficult to figure out ways to incorporate that word into a blog post after all. Giddy-up.
