LEarned a new word today: HABOOB!

And what does Haboob mean?

Dust/sand storm.

It's like the Mother of all sandstorms. Usually seen in middle-east deserts, but recently noticed in Phoenix.

If Haboob means sandstorm they should just rename Lubbock Haboob

I bet that video footage of the Sandstorm in Phoenix ends up in some disaster movie some day.
I don't think Oatmeal has a movie theater, but Bertram near Oatmeal does.

Planking. The new craze that's sweeping the nation.



– Planking is a popular game that involves lying face down stiff as a board in unusual, and sometimes dangerous, locations and uploading the pictures to the internet.

I was unhappy with my wife's mood swings, so I bought her a mood ring the other day so I could better monitor what mood she's in. I've discovered that when she's in a good mood, the ring turns green.............and when she's in a bad mood, it leaves a big red mark on my forehead. Apparently, I was supposed to buy a diamond...........

Looks to me like the "frat boys" have WAY too much time on their hands.
