I do not see any damn dolphins...

Please take a look at this picture first...So what do you see? Now proceed and read below to find an explanation of what you really saw. You'll find this very interesting.




Research has shown that young children cannot identify the intimate couple because they do not have prior memory associated with such a scenario.
What they will see are the nine dolphins.
If it takes you longer than three seconds to see the dolphins, your mind is heavily biased in favor of perceiving the intimate couple (the email from which I harvested this picture says "your mind is corrupt"...) .

Some changes at YJKOBT

We just wanted to give everyone a heads up that there are a few things changing here at YJKOBT. No we aren't leaving or stopping blogging. (or having a kidney removed as Mt. Cat suggested I tell you) We are just both too busy to keep up a strict schedule of posting that we have tried to do for the past 9 months. Things like word game, Weird Al Wednesday, Random Thoughts, and Top 10 lists will continue but may be posted randomly on any day. We love our readers and consider you all friends but due to both work and home life stuff we have not been able to keep up with our own blog much less reading yours. Sorry about that. We will try to do better in the future....So please stick with us and we will post stuff as we are able.

Goodbye

Today is the final game at Yankee Stadium. I will be there and will be sad to see it go. I am going with my dad who took me to my first Yankees game 23 years ago. I have so many great memories of this stadium. Today's game may top them all.

Or how about these two??

Video: The Long And The Short Of It

The world's smallest man hooked up with the lady with the longest legs.
He Pingping, who is just 74.61cm tall (2ft 5.37in), posed on steps in London's Trafalgar Square with Russian Svetlana Pankratova, whose legs have been measured at 132cm (4ft 3.9in).
That is almost twice his height.
Pingping admitted he was head over heels in love - but not with the lady towering above him.
Pingping, who was born with primordial dwarfism, was thinking as ever of his girlfriend back in Inner Mongolia.

My 20 Essential Albums

I was thinking the other day that I needed to compile a list that Vin asked me about years ago. To really sit down and come up with my Top 20 essential albums. The 20 albums I would take with me to that fictional "desert island." So I sat down and thought about it and I have to admit it was tough. I have so many. Probably enough to do 100 but at least 50 essential "must have" albums. My criteria was that the album had to be produced and purchased from the artist not a compilation (or playlist - cause I don't do the I-pod thing) burned from other sources. This includes double albums, live recordings, and greatest hits too of course. I would love to hear your comments as well as your top 20 list as well. So here goes the 20 albums I cannot live without In order:

20. Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon

19. Men at Work - Contraband

18. The Commodores - The Best of the Commodores The Millennium Collection

17. AC/DC - Live

16. The Essential Lynyrd Skynyrd

15. The Rolling Stones - Some Girls

14. Prince - The Hits / The B Sides

13. Harry Chapin - Gold Medal Collection

12. Jimmy Buffett - Meet Me in Margaritaville

11. Eagles - Hell Freezes Over

10. The Best of the Doors

9. Boston - Greatest Hits

8. Bon Jovi - One Wild Night

7. Billy Joel - Greatest Hits Volume I and II

6. REM - Automatic for the People

5. Led Zeppelin IV

4. Barenaked Ladies - Play Everywhere for Everyone - Live in Charlotte 3/7/2004

3. The Who - The Ultimate Collection

2. Jimmy Buffett - Feeding Frenzy

And the most essential album for me of all time is

1. Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet

I would love to hear what do you think...

Any other songs about sneezing or just plain sickness?

Happy Wednesday.

Word Game winner

Thanks to everyone who participated in Tuesday Word Game. I read back over the entries and decided that Karen wins this weeks Peach for the following topical political championship:

Pole dancing however is not the oddest championship held in Europe. The oddest has to be American Political impersonation championship. Coincidentally Palin impersonators were entered in both contests.

Congrats Karen.... Here is your peach !! I bet Sarah did well in both contests....

Tuesday Word Game 9/16/2008

It's Tuesday again and time to play Word Game. Lets go the world of pole dancing for this week's edition shall we? It seems this past weekend they had the European pole dance championships in Amsterdam. That's right pole dancing championships. After reading this article I got to thinking that if I never knew there were pole dancing championships there must be other championships I haven't heard of before. I say we should make some up.

Complete the following news article with an odd or funny championship event and the funniest or oddest wins a peach tomorrow morning:

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - It was a busy time for pole dancers in Amsterdam at the weekend.
While the red light district's troupe were gyrating as usual on Friday night, a host of girls from Albania to Spain flew in to compete for the European pole dance championship title.
"Everything which we do requires so much strength. You train your legs and your muscles. It has nothing to do with eroticism. You have no time to think of that!" said Jeannine Wikering, the 26-year-old competitor for Germany who came third.
"I think one day it should be an Olympic sport -- but that will take time. You would have to agree which moves on which to judge competitors, at the moment we all have such different routines," she added.

Pole dancing however is not the oddest championship held in Europe. The oddest has to be ________________.
