Give me at least 1 reason why I'm going to hell. Then, repost this meme in your own LJ and see what other people say about you.
A weird coincidence, and marmalade
Last night, during a wine reception, they were playing a Sinatra CD (which is a helluva lot better than the Gypsy Kings CD they were playing during the poster section. My Way and Hotel California will never sound the same again…) and one of the songs was “Something Stupid”. It was the same song (and probably the same CD) that was playing during breakfast this morning. Weird.
In other news, I have discovered marmalade. Good stuff!
Some people have too much time and overactive imaginations
I give you two weird sightings:
A 3 pound, 8.5inch wide swiss-army knife that will cost you $1,200 and has 85 gizmos on it, including: 11 varieties of blades (including the essential cigar cutter), 30 screwdrivers and assorted bits, 5 wrenches, 3 pairs of pliers and 36 other tools (including the ever useful laser pointer, 12gauge choke tube, flashlight, glof club face cleaner and tire tread gauge).
The people who brought you the Play-Doh cologne and the bacon bandages now proudly introduce the bacon wallet. Nothing more needs to be said.

“Take a look a your LJ friends list, then list up to ten things you want to say to ten different LJ friends… DO NOT state who these people are. DO NOT confirm nor deny any “comment speculation”. Then tag five people. “
There will be no tagging of others to spread things here.
1. I don't know you enough, but what I've seen so far makes you out to be a very interesting person.
2. You are a selfish person, who looks out for number one. You use the people around you only when it suits you and I've grown to hate how you affect those people who try to care.
3. I admire you for the strength of your character in overcoming so many odds and just jumping blindly in life always knowing you'll land on your feet.
4. I know family is important, but you need to live your life for you, not how you think they want you to live it according to their morals and standards.
5. You have more potential that you think, you just need to stop caring about what others think about you. Go out and see the world outside your doorstep, it'll change your life forever.
6. You have strong opinions and you live by them, so congratulations. Sometimes though, you come seem moralistic and preachy, so you might want to tone it down a notch.
7. Sometimes you come across as cute and quirky, sometimes you just come across as weird.
8. I sometimes regret not taking you up on your offer.
9. I don't understand your lifestyle and I sometimes think you're vain and superficial.
10. You are my rock, and I don't know what I'd do without you.

You scored as XIII: Death. Death is probably the most well known Tarot card – and also the most misunderstood. Most Tarot novices would consider Death to be a bad card, especially given its connection with the number thirteen. In fact this card rarely indicates literal death.Without “death” there can be no change, only eventual stagnation. The “death” of the child allows for the “birth” of the adult. This change is not always easy. The appearance of Death in a Tarot reading can indicate pain and short term loss, however it also represents hope for a new future.

Walking in a Walt Disney landscape
Sometimes I feel like I'm in a classic Disney film when I walk to work. This morning, between the birds chirping, the duckies waddling merrily along the footpath, the huge blackbirds walking in the gravel beds and the wild rabbit warren in the topiary, the amount of wildlife I ran across was quite impressive.
Almost made me break out in song.
Almost.
