Sacha Baron Cohen is a genius

T-3 days till Borat hits the theaters, yipee!!! One of the things that makes SBC great is how on the spot funny he is, check out this appearance on Letterman last night.

Interesting thoughts

Here is an interesting column on the Steelers recent disappointing season and how if a couple of plays had gone the other way last season, we could have been in the same spot we're in now or vice versa . . .

Happy Halloween!!!

Have a great Halloween at work today! Thanksgiving is only 3 weeks away!

Dachshunds in Banana Suits!

Ok, so Pepper may be a moose for Halloween, but how cute are these dachshunds? How did I ever live before Cute Overload?

If only this was in NC

I wish I could visit the Girls' Costume Warehouse.

More Borat

The new Borat movie is almost a week away and to satisfied my obsession, EW has posted a hilarious interview with him.

Guns don't kill people. Chuck Norris kills people.

Apparently I've been living underneath an Internet rock or something, because I'm just now finding out about "Chuck Norris Facts," a list of facts about how awesome Chuck Norris is, because he is awesome, watching one episode of Walker Texas Ranger tells you that.

Listen to Flavor Flav

Flavor of Love may almost be a thing of the past, but Flav apparently has a new album out and VH1 is being kind enough to stream it. Unfortunately, I'm busy in the usability lab and so can't listen to it, but I'm sure it's profound.

The Leader of Our Country

Glad to see he's up to date with "The Google"

Worst Halloween Costumes of All Time

Check out this site that lists the worst Halloween costumes of all time. My $2.50 Target cat ears and tail is so going to rock this year.

Deleted Scenes from Borat

As I anxiously await the funniest movie of the year, Borat's Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, I'm happy to tide myself over with these deleted scenes. If the deleted scenes are this funny, just imagine how good the stuff that made it into the movie is.

Hotlanta roadtrip?

Justin Timberlake isn't coming to NC, but he is hitting up Atlanta in February. Pink is also touring with him. Roadtrip anyone?

Best email address ever

I was just in a conference call and saw this email address. How lucky is this guy? hfrantz@us.ibm.com pales in comparison . . .

In my father's dreams

Does walking into Harris Teeter give you chills? Ever think to yourself that getting married next to toilet paper is romantic? If so, then you should get married in a grocery store too. Thanks again CNN for such hard-hitting journalism!

Speed dating: Part Quattro

So Jen and I went speed dating again Friday night. We're sitting at the bar waiting for the event to start and Jen is talking to this guy and tells him how I'm a speed dating regular. Funny enough until the speed dating guy comes up to ask our names and recognizes me. Like he knows my name and hands me my name tag without having to ask. My fear of ending up alone has paid his electric bill for the month since I've been there so many times.

Overall, the event was kind of disappointing. Only 10 guys out of 15 showed up, so there were a lot more girls than guys. Jen and I weren't really excited about anyone we talked to, but we did talk to some unique individuals again.

The most unique was a German Computer Science teacher at NC State (Matt totally had him for class). At first you'd think he could be good - he's foreign, smart, and has the potential to make good money. Of course this is not taking into account that he had a unibrow, very high pants, and spoke about 1,000 accented words a minute. I'm pretty sure there were multiple times I answered questions wrong, but I don't think he minded too much since most of his focus was on my boobs.

There was also a lovely gentleman who talked about how he had met some people from IBM that morning as he was waiting in line for the new Nintendo. Unfortunately, he didn't get one and has to wait till the 19th. His willingness to wait in line instead of going to work shows that while he may not have the best work ethic, he would be a valuable asset if I ever needed tickets to a Duke basketball game.

In pure six degrees of separation style, I did meet someone who works with the father of my neighbors growing up. Small world. He was kind of slimy, although this didn't stop me from putting him down as a match (I said the selection wasn't that great) and of course we matched. I don't know if I'll go out with him or not.

At the end of the day, I put down four people and matched with 2 of them which is about par for the course. The one guy has already emailed me. His name is Greg and he is a lawyer which is freaky because my father's name is Greg and he is a lawyer.

The good news is that there is another event in November as the speed dating guy kindly reminded me in his email before he even gave me my matches. My name is Heather and I'm a speed dating addict.

Happy Friday the 13th

How do you make Friday the 13th even scarier? By having it in October! Good thing I'm going speed dating tonight, I'm sure the freaks will be out . . .
