Submitted by mark on Tue, 01/05/2010 - 20:24I had never heard of this before until one of the other guys at work told me about it, but apparently it happens every year.
My cousin's kid has brain cancer, so I signed up.
No pressure:

Help! I need to make a list of definitive 80's songs.
Submitted by mark on Wed, 12/23/2009 - 13:11I am making a CD for a friend at work for x-mas (born in 1981) who _loves_ 80's music.
Ready?
Go!
Got puppies?
Submitted by mark on Mon, 11/16/2009 - 19:06As you might know, my wife and I foster dogs for the local humane society.
Well, someone decided to dump a litter of 10 puppies off this week, and no one volunteered to take any of them, so you get one guess where all 10 of them are!
Anyway, while dinking around today, I snapped some pictures and entered one in an online "cute puppy photo contest."

Submitted by mark on Mon, 08/31/2009 - 21:54Stine and I have had Thunder for 13 years now. He is the first dog we got as a couple.
He was a great frisbee dog and could catch one mid-air on the bounce with all four feet off the ground. Of course, he is a Border Collie.
A few months ago he was diagnosed with some aggressive form of cancer.
He's had some good times since then, being pampered and getting to eat all the human food he wanted.
But time is drawing near.
We're waiting for the vet to come over and administer his shot, and then we'll take him out to the desert and bury him next to Indy.
I'll miss my friend.
