Are you one of those people who have trouble making a toast or otherwise speaking in public? For some folks, singing in the shower is easy, but singing in front of an audience is scary.

Women may find this hard to believe, but single men do think about Valentine’s Day.

Especially since there’s a good chance that they can run into depressed single women who are just looking for a quick hook-up ensure that they didn’t spend Valentine’s Day home alone again this year, with just a bowl fool of cookie dough and a bag full of M&M’s to keep them company as they sit and cry in front of the TV.

Nope, men want everything on Valentine’s Day that women want: just a little action.

Picking a good password is important. “Tigger” is not a good password.

A recent study has been released that took a look at over 32 million passwords that were published onto the Internet after a hacker broke into the ROCKYOU.COM website.

This is the first time that a password study of this magnitude was able to be performed, but it did confirm a few things about users and the passwords they choose: PEOPLE ARE NOT PICKING SECURE PASSWORDS FOR THEIR ONLINE ACCOUNTS.

The most common password found online is typically 12345, although the ROCKYOU data had the most common password being 123456, with nearly 1 percent of the ROCKYOU users being that uncreative. Go figure – that extra digit made it that much harder to hack into the critical ROCKYOU website.

Today’s lesson: Writing jokes isn’t easy. Computers that write jokes aren’t funny.

A friend of ours is a comedy writer.

He always says that writing jokes isn’t easy. We keep telling him that he would have more free time if scientists would invent a robot that could write jokes.

He insisted that there was no way a machine could write something that was as funny as what a person could write. Web Watch tried not to point out how horrible some so-called sitcoms are, or how repetitive certain late-night talk show host monologues have become.

And then along comes the JOKE WRITING COMPUTER.

Boosting your metabolism helps you lose weight. Sadly, Twinkies are not the answer

Post author By web gangsta
Post date January 17, 2010

One thing Web Watch knows how to do is tell others what they are supposed to do to lose weight.
It’s quite simple – “eat less and exercise more.”

See how easy it is to say that? The hard part, as we all know, is actually following through with the advice that we freely give to others. Web Watch may not practice what we preach, but we’re really not the kind of people we would preach to anyway.

So let’s pretend that you’re already trying to eat a sensible breakfast, healthy lunch, and small portions at dinner. You’re exercising a little bit every day as best you can, but you haven’t really noticed any real differences yet.

Maybe all you need to do, since you’re doing everything else right, is to kickstart your metabolism a little. Here are a few suggestions that you can try:
