The Taronga Zoo in Austrailia just welcomed a baby pygmy hippo into their family.
It is unbelievably adorable! Who knew?

Guess Who
Congratulations to Liz who correctly identified this week's Guess Who? as Dawn Lewis, aka Jaleesa from 80s sitcom Different World.
Though Lisa Bonet went on to marry Lenny Kravitz and walk around in skirts of wheat, and Marisa Tomei won an Oscar, well, Dawn's taken the quieter path doing mostly voice-overs, with the exception of a brief cameo in Dreamgirls.
Little known fact: Dawn composed the Different World theme song with Bill Cosby.
Thank you, Mayor Tyson
As I tried to take advantage of my children's simultaneous nap, I said a quick prayer that no one was disturbed. There was the punding of the excavator, the drilling of the thingamajig, and the everpresent beep, beep, beeping of the trucks.
Of course, that was immediately followed by yet another familiar sound coming from upstairs:
"Trac-tor. Trac-tor."
Mother and son are now blogging together.

I Love Technology (please sing aloud a la Napolean Dynamite)
To those of you who had the pleasure of attending my wedding (minus the car fire on the Bronx River Expressway), our best man was none other than professional wrestlining sensation Stevie Richards of the WWE of the Right to Censor era. Seven years and seventy-plus injuries later, he has now combined his comprehensive knowledge of technology with his mastery of performance and presentation.
If you have yet to check it out, click on the T4 Show listed on my blogroll and learn everything you never knew your technology could do. In a series of podcasts, Michael (yes, his real name), presents a number of great explanations, elaborations, and simply cool tricks about the most popular tech devices on the market.
My own favorite podcast shows how you can use your iPhone to literally name that tune. In other words, if you've ever heard a piece of a song but just can't put your finger on what the song is, you can simply hold your phone up to even the smallest clip of the music and your iPod will deliver both song title and performer within minutes.
Clearly, there are many more significant features discussed on the blog, but that one just happens to be a favorite.
BTW: I cannot live without my iTouch!
