This is so sweet. In that twisted way I think in.

Eternal embrace? Couple still hugging 5,000 years on



ROME (Reuters) - Call it the eternal embrace.

Archaeologists in Italy have discovered a couple buried 5,000 to 6,000 years ago, hugging each other.

"It's an extraordinary case," said Elena Menotti, who led the team on their dig near the northern city of Mantova.

"There has not been a double burial found in the Neolithic period, much less two people hugging -- and they really are hugging."

Menotti said she believed the two, almost certainly a man and a woman although that needs to be confirmed, died young because their teeth were mostly intact and not worn down.

"I must say that when we discovered it, we all became very excited. I've been doing this job for 25 years. I've done digs at Pompeii, all the famous sites," she told Reuters.

"But I've never been so moved because this is the discovery of something special."

A laboratory will now try to determine the couple's age at the time of death and how long they had been buried.

Okies.

So yesterday I was bored.

Lots of you helped allievate that boredom. And there's a special place in puppie heaven for those of you who played along.

Today, is no exception.

So, I say go BACK to that thread and compliment someone. Or add your picture. Or ask someone a question about something.

:)

Ready?

Set?

GO!

I'M HIT!

10 Weird Things Meme

Rules.

Each player of this game must write a blog with 10 weird things/habits/little-known facts about him/herself. Afterward you must tag another 10 people to do the same. GO!

1. I daydream while driving. Like, bigtime. My mind rarely wanders except the two hours I'm in the car daily. The music will often influence my daydreams, or my actual dreams. I'm listening to Corvus Corax right now, and it makes me space on if I could be a bellydancer.

2. I break things down to monetary values I understand. You know that commercial where he's like "*gasp* That's 4 million Big Macs!" Yeah. I do that. Only it's more like "It would take me 2 hours to work to earn that". It helps curb the spending. Also I think of like "That's my car payment!" or something.

3. If I eat something too much I can't eat it for a year or two again. I don't know why. I get physically ill if I do. I do this a lot with salads. I think I couldn't eat them more than once a week for like, a year, because I went a year just eating salads at lunch. Go me.

4. I never really thought I was straight. Like, ever. I knew I liked women too much. I like guys too, obviously, but I think I appreciate the female form way more.

5. I adore sleep. ADORE it. I love my bed, I love sleeping, I love my dreams, I love being cozy and nested.

6. I had a very different background than most of my friends, and I don't know what they are referring to a lot. So I kind of smile and nod along until I pick up on it, or can research it later. I think that skill is what helps me blend into different scenarios well.

7. I am like, head over heels in love with Wikipedia.org. Seriously. I love it. I love all the random facts. I don't take it as gospel, obviously, but it is rather accurate and informative. I love information of all kinds.

8. Celebrities fascinate me. Because I know they're just normal people we place on pedastals. I'd like to get to know some of them, to see what they're really like as opposed to our preconceived notions of them.

9. I see 2 and a half sides to every story. If presented with one side that is clear enough, I can usually figure out why the other person acted a certain way, and I can usually figure out what *really* happened, for the most part. I think this is why people come to me for advice.

10. 9 times out of 10 I can tell when someones pregnant. I get a feeling in the middle of my abdomen like bubbles and I suddently get sillie smiley. I never say it outloud though, because I'm afraid I'd be wrong, and usually it's with people who are trying to get pregnant. And that's an awful disappointment if I am wrong. I say 9 times out of 10, but honestly, I can't think of when I've been wrong. I *can*, however, remember when I've ignored it.

I taaaaaaaaaaag. NO ONE!

Heh.

One of those things about living in Northern Jersey is like what just happened.

Some young guy walks into the office. He says he's a location scout.

Wants to take pictures of our office.

Well, Mister ain't here. We can't just okay that, even if the realty company did.

So he gives us his card.

He's from the Sopranos.

Hehe.

Next time Tia & Dave come out, I'll be like "some guy from the Sopranos came here to check it out" and drag them to my office.
