Let’s face it – some countries are just better at some things than others. For example, the French and the Italians are known for their food. This doesn’t mean that other countries aren’t good at their own food, but what’s the first thing you ask someone when they say they’re heading off for a vacation in Italy?
That’s right. Web Watch can’t explain it, it just is.
So when the Organisation of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) decided to do a survey on which country spends the most time doing household chores, Web Watch thought we’d use this as an opportunity to take a look at countries around the world from a different perspective.

Recently, Orlando and the surrounding area played host to the annual GAY DAYS at Walt Disney World, Universal, SeaWorld, and elsewhere.
And aside from some lame attempts to grab sensational headlines by some organizations that always look for things to complain about – this year’s Gay Days, like others before, came and went without much ado.
In other words, all those people trying to make a big deal about Gay Days? Not so effective anymore.

Not everybody’s parents are as cool as Dale Price.
Even if his son, Rain, may have been slightly embarassed about his father’s occasional antics today – what Dale has done for the past year is something that will definitely make for some awesome family stories 10 or 20 years from now.
And Dale didn’t really do anything too complicated.
All he did was the same thing any other modern-day parent does – they send their children off to school on the schoolbus every day. Of course, Rain is also a teenager, with all the typical teenage angst. So Dale thought he’d try something a little different this past school year.

If you have a body piercing (ears, belly button, nose, lip, elsewhere), a decorative tattoo or scar — yes, scars can be decorative — or have had some type of non-medical-related surgery purposefully intended to change the way your body looks away from what it considered a traditional appearance, then you’ve participated in body modification.
There are all sorts of body mod websites out there, some of which – like BME.COM – we’ve talked about previously on Web Watch.
Here’s a new one for you: where do you turn when body modifications are a religious experience?
You know you want one. Everybody does.
And you know the best way to get a dog is to adopt an unwanted or abandoned puppy from an animal shelter rather than to go to a breeder and pay more money than necessary. Of course, if purebreds are your thing – then go for it, but if you listen to Bob Barker’s (and now Drew Carey’s) spiel at the end of every episode of THE PRICE IS RIGHT, you know that going to a shelter will give you the warm fuzzies – both literally and figuratively.

Password security is an oft-discussed topic here on Web Watch – we’ve covered it with a list of the most common passwords, how kids select passwords, and how “TIGGER” is not a good password, among other topics.
So when some more password analysis became available due to the recent security breach at Sony, Web Watch felt it was important to share again how bad people can be with picking passwords — which should help reiterate how important it is for our Web Watch readers to have a good password policy of their own.
