Accident Prone

Oh my gosh, this is really good and really funny!  I watched this before I watched what she was making a parody of and she did an amazing job of re-making, parody style, Lady Gaga's "Telephone". 
Now here's my confession.  I have NEVER listened to Lady Gaga (Stephanie I can hear you gasp right now - send me your fave by her and I'll put in in song of the day! :) )  and the only song I know of hers is "Paparazzi" and that is only because two kids danced to it on the last season of America's Got Talent!  I know, go ahead and say it.  I'm a bit sheltered...
Interesting and true fact about Lady Gaga - she went to Sacred Heart School in NYC which is an all girls school and my sister-in-law now teaches there in the lower elementary.  :) Caroline Kennedy also went to that school.  Thought I'd throw another fact in there! 
So back to the parody.  All I can say, as I have been all week, is AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  This girl, who calls herself the Venetian Princess, does a great job at Lady Gaga.  Really really funny! 

Happy finally Friday!

Bonus parody because it's too funny to not feature as well!  The Snooki Song

The Feast of Firstfruits & Easter Go for Broke Day If it scares you this is the day to go for it no matter what. One Day Without Shoes Day Today is to raise global awareness for children’s health and education.  Why shoes? Because shoes help protect from bacteria in the dirt, rusty nails, dirty needles and shoes enable feet to withstand the long distances most children in developing countries need to walk to get to school. Join TOMS One for One There is plenty of criticism out there for TOMS and its short term solutions. Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by ...

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment. 

A dime a dozen

"It's said that in the year 1796, the first U.S. dimes were produced for circulation. Hence, it would make sense for this phrase to originate sometime after." Read more here .  Today the phrase carries the meaning that something is cheap or without value if it can be lumped in with other similar or exactly-like things. It's more of an insult than anything.
