H&M's virtual dressing room is... like Zima?

H&M's Web site has a feature that allows you to dress up a virtual model of yourself by entering your dimensions and other characteristics before scrolling through the virtual closet. It helps shopaholics like myself scratch that itch without actually spending any money (though this is probably not its purpose). The closet only offers a small selection of H&M items, and the virtual model is perhaps more hypothetical than virtual, but it's a fun way to procrastinate. And procrastination is why the Internet was invented in the first place.

This is supposed to be me.

Crab Man just plain rocks

Darnell AKA Crab Man's back story explained on tonight's episode of My Name is Earl is totally the bee's knees. Best secondary character ever. Although I will miss the mystery.

Impeachment can be fun

Fashionably late comment on now former Illinois governor Rod R. Blagojevich:

Did anyone else spend all day watching Blagojevich's impeachment trial? It was the greatest thing I've seen since all the inauguration hoopla (so in a week). The creepo governor spent all week on a publicity tour instead of defending himself under oath at the trial, and then he showed up the very last day and made a big speech about what a great governor for the people he's been and how innocent and honorable he is. The guy's a convincing public speaker, albeit arrogant and delusional. Unfortunately for him, actions speak louder than words. Every single member of the Illinois state senate voted yes both to impeach him and bar him from future public office. One member even switched up the roll call with an "absolutely!"

On a completely unrelated note on what's not the bee's knees, I'm averaging only about one post a month. Don't impeach me.
