B-L-O-G-G-I-N-G, find out what it means to me
There is no denying that there are a lot fewer blogs than there used to be. I've always preferred the format to other forms of social media because I have much more control over the way I present content. Blogging also allows me to choose whether or not I want to display ads (I don't). I think The Guardian summed it up best in an article published a few months ago.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Looking forward to sharing your VD with the one you love? Start the day off by sending them an ecard from dgreetings.com. I used this site for an apology letter a few years back and got some really positive feedback. Here's a sampling of cards available on their site.
I can’t imagine what would make me fall for someone like you.
Your scent is in my soul.
Who exactly is this card supposed to be for?
My lips are dry and could use a change of taste. Want to strengthen your face muscles?
If I could remember, I would probably leave.
Please lift the restraining order.
This one starts out strong.

Don't get scammed by fake monkey brokers!
If you are in the market for some monkeys (and honestly, who isn't?) make sure you do your homework. While researching monkeys for my Pulitzer Prize worthy Top 5 Monkeys article I came across a very informative video.
Key Points To Consider:
• Do not have monkeys shipped to you. "When you send the money, you never get a monkey."
• There's no such thing as "monkey adoption."
• You will definitely definitely definitely definitely be happy if you buy from a reputable breeder.
• And remember: Pay for all of your monkeys in cash!
Hope this helps!

Everybody's doing it
I've been drunk before, but I've never been "fall asleep in a dumpster and get rescued from a garbage truck while being mistaken for a homeless person" drunk. And what's the deal with people getting stuck in trash trucks lately?
2 sleeping in dumpster get emptied into garbage truck
Associated Press - February 11, 2015
Authorities in Florida say a man and woman who were intoxicated had to be rescued after falling asleep in a dumpster that was later emptied into a garbage truck.
Hillsborough County Sheriff's officials say the couple had been sleeping in a dumpster outside a convenience store near Tampa early Wednesday. When the dumpster was emptied into the back of the garbage truck, they started screaming and banging on the sides of the truck.
Rescue crews were called just after 5 a.m. They removed 37-year-old Donald L. Jordan and 49-year-old Lisa Sirbella from the truck. They were taken to Tampa General Hospital after complaining of back pain.
Deputies originally believed they were homeless, but learned they were highly intoxicated after hanging out at a nearby casino.

Creative marketing
To promote sales in France, Hasbro has started secretly inserting REAL money into some of their Monopoly games. Let's hope this plan goes better than when they tried a similar strategy with the classic game Mouse Trap.

Happy Groundhog Day!
It's that time of year again. The time when Punxsutawney Phil emerges from Gobbler's Knob (real name) to predict the weather for his slack-jawed cult followers. If that little rodent sees his shadow it'll be six more weeks of winter. Fingers crossed everybody!
