you will laugh out loud
  Hallmark has hit a home run in with these two goofy characters.  I just got an e-card featuring these guys from a friend and it gave me a grand giggle.  So I visited their website and laughed out loud at their dialog for the day.  It's a must visit if you need to add a little happy to your busy schedule.

christmas memory
    I received this sweet e-game  created by Jacquie Lawson in my inbox and thought I'd share the fun.  To be honest with you, I forgot how enjoyable a little game of memory was – plus you get a delightful animated picture of a winter scene at the end. The talented artist behind these has many other delightful ecards available to view.  They are wonderful works of charming animation and worth the load time.       Christmas .

monkey business
I always thought career builder’s monkey ads were very creative and funny (I love the shot of the CEO monkey burning the $100 bill) So when I stumbled across their clever Monk-e-mail I couldn’t resist creating my very own office monkey. So if a few of your office mates are away for spring break, shoot them a friendly monk-e-mail and let them know you’re having a grand time while they’re gone. Thanks Lynn for .

Well, I found another entertaining website that’ll be sure to give your football lovin’ man a hearty laugh. My husband, Steve joined a fantasy football league for the first time this year and has become quite a fanatic and rather competitive to say the least. He cracked up when I put together this victory dance .
