Lab POWER

We thought this story was totally funny. Mom really likes the way the reporter notes that "Buddy accepted delivery." Go LABS!

Cookbooks, Smookbooks

We killed another cookbook today while mom was at work. I don't know why we do that. But it is kind of fun. we make a huge old mess, and mom has FUN cleaning it up when she gets home.

This time we killed the Campbells soup cookbook. Yesterday we killed the Biggest Loser cookbook, which actually mom had not yet even opened.

Mom is at a meeting tonight, so she came home, fed us (yum) and left again. BUT she enclosed the bookshelf in an x-pen, so that is a bit of a bummer.

More extreme librarian coolness

Did you know the Library of Congress has a blog? And it's good too. They also have a Flickr account and have posted about 3,000 images. Even better....

Check out the photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/

And their blog (which will not put you to sleep I swear) is at

Library Thing is so web 2.5

We love LibraryThing. Those crazy wacky librarians and the stuff they think up.

We even bought the cool CueCat scanner so we can add our books just by scanning the UPC code on the back of the book.

So far we have gotten three our our friends to join the cult.

Naturally we have a lot of dog books. One we bought back in 1985 or so, used, for $5, is selling for $450 on eBay. Maybe we should sell it and buy dog toys or something.

Track Your Goals!

Hey, no excuses! Here's a great little web app that allows you to set goals, and track your achievement (nothing fancy, just a check). If you have multiple goals, it gives you a total score for the day.

You can track, as an example "Did I walk the dog", "Did I walk the dog again", "Did I take the dog to agility", "Did I give very good dogs extra cookies". Stuff like that.

And it has a cool graph that you can add to your blog.

Sweet!

Check it out: Joe's Goals

We also really really love that it is written in ColdFusion
