Random Links #15, #16, and #17

I have three May links for you today to catch up. I have been thinking about May ever since Cinco de Mayo.

This web site was shown to me from my sister Jillian's blog. It has some fascinating stuff on there.

The only athlete I've ever known to have a first and last name both named after foods.

I still don't really understand what this is all about, but I hope I learn someday.

Random link #14

My wife Jessica thinks that I don't label my posts correctly because my links aren't always random. That may be the case; I don't know. But today is really improperly named because there isn't even a link. Just a thought.

I was thinking about something today during Cinco de Mayo. I think each country should start basing their time on the day of their independence. For example, the Mexican New Year would be on May 5 of every year. The United States of America (where I am a citizen) would celebrate their New Year on July 4. Each country would be on a different year.

Don't get me wrong...the months and stuff would be the same. I mean, I don't want the whole system to get too complicated. But I think it would be cool if today in America it were May 5 in the year 231.

Random Link #13

Creative ways to announce a pregnancy. Seriously, sticking the pregnancy test in a hot dog bun? Unbelievable. Whatever happened to the good old days when an announcement was simply posted on a blog?

Random Link #12

When we hear about the Great Salt Lake as a recreation spot, we usually laugh and mention the smell of the lake. Apparently, though, it used to be a rockin' place.
