This is just SO WRONG!!!

You have to see it to believe it, but this is what showed up on Amazon.com when I logged in:
MANGROOMER Do-It-Yourself Electric Back Hair Shaver The product description has to be one of the FUNNIEST things I've read in a while. Here's a snippet:

"How the Mangroomer Can Improve Your Life

Look and Feel Clean and Manicured -- Eliminating unsightly back hair presents a more refined, clean image to others.

Confidence -- Increase your confidence knowing that you are 'back hair free' and no one will be staring or snickering at you, or get turned off by unsightly back hair.

Romance -- Start up that spark in your relationship or marriage by surprising your partner with a smooth, sexy back.

Muscle Definition -- Shaving the hair off your back shows your muscle definition in much greater detail. You'll simply look in better shape after using the Mangroomer.

Sweat -- Keep your back shaved clean and help keep your back dry with less sweat and less chance for body odor.

First Impressions -- As the saying goes, you only get one chance to make a first impression. Don't let back hair ruin the image you are trying to project.

Summer Essentials -- When your shirt is off this summer, no back hair is a big plus. Whether you're at the beach or a pool party, use the Mangroomer to avoid embarrassing, hairy-back jokes.

Avoid Embarrassing Public Treatment Options -- With the Mangroomer you can shave your back privately, easily, quickly, painlessly, and inexpensively by yourself, in the comfort of your own home.

How to prank a Telemarketer

How to prank a Telemarketer

This is a recording of a prank pulled on a telemarketer. It has to be one of the funniest things I've heard.

Free Directory Assistance

1-800-FREE411

I found this while surfing this morning, and it really is free. Here's some info from their website:

"1-800-FREE411 is free nationwide directory assistance. And it’s free from any phone. Cell. Home. Work. Wherever. Of course, you may get charged minutes on your cell phone (like most calls), but we won’t charge you a penny.

Here’s how we do it. Our sponsors cover the service cost by playing short advertising messages (about 15 seconds) – ads usually based on your search request. Say you’re looking for a local pizza place. We might play you a special offer from Dominos. And we’ll even connect you for free. Of course, you can always just get the original number you requested. Best part is, a typical call to us lasts about the same amount of time as a paid 411 call."

You don't need to sign up for anything, either. All you do is dial 1-800-FREE411 (1-800-373-3411) from any phone instead of your normal directory assistance number.

Ice, Ice, Baby!

Okay, I'll admit it - I just downloaded Vanilla Ice's "Ice, Ice, Baby" to my iPod. I'm not entirely sure why, to be honest. But for the life of me, whenever I listen to it, I can't get this image of Jim Carrey out of my head:
