And now, here is the final set of random comments, from the archives of The Celebok Report:


Is it normal to fall asleep in the middle of typing an e-mail to someone you're interested in?

You know you spend too much time chatting on-line when you're scribbling hand-written notes to yourself, and you write a sideways smiley face without even thinking.

You know, I think it's rather amazing that for a guy who's as clueless about babies as I am, I can shop for a baby gift in under ten minutes! I had to buy a gift for a co-worker's baby shower, and I was inside Babies-R-Us for only 7 minutes, 12 seconds! Of course, having a sales person there to direct me to a desired item helped a lot. But other than that, my efficiency is due to the fact that I've had to purchase so many baby gifts in the past that I've become familiar with the drill. As soon as I walk in, I immediately head over to the gift registry terminal on my left, enter the person's name, print out the registry, then look for items in the "baby care" section, since that's the section that's closest to the registry terminal. As soon as I find something that matches up with the desired price, I grab it and pay for it, and I'm out of there!

Has being turned down by someone you're interested in while eating vegetable pasta ever been known to cause lots of gas later on?

I wonder how hard it is to pirate a handicapped parking pass. Do cops actually look at them closely to make sure they're authentic? And how can they do that if the pass is inside the car and the doors are locked? Or is there some secret to those things that I'm unaware of? Then again, the process of creating a fake handicapped parking pass that looks real is probably a lot more effort than walking the extra distance to your car.

I think they should make air fresheners that smell like coffee.

I think I've discovered that when an egg is stuck in the carton, there's really no use in trying to get it out intact.

I need to get into the habit of taking a bite out of every food that's on my plate within the first three minutes that I'm served it in a restaurant. There have been many times when the waiter or waitress would come by just a few minutes after serving my meal and say, "How is everything?" and the only thing I've tried so far are the french fries or the vegetables. So I just say, "Okay, so far." Luckily there hasn't been a case where tasting the rest of my meal has actually produced new information as to how "everything" is.

Is it just me, or does chow mein actually taste better reheated than fresh?

I never used to listen to swing music before I started getting into swing dancing. It was learning how to swing dance that was prompting me to download some swing music off the internet for a while. For this reason, I still don't think of swing music as something I want to listen to just for the sake of listening to music. To me, swing music exists for the purpose of dancing. In fact, listening to good swing music while I'm driving is dangerous. I tend to start doing swing dance moves in my head and lose focus on my driving!
