The most optimistic award goes to the dog in our neighborhood who barks at airplanes. I know the little critter is convinced that he’s keeping those big metal birds from stealing his kibble.

The unexpected tv moment award goes to Heroes for finally explaining the stolen socks from the first episode. Until then, I thought they were making it up as they go.

The least understood award goes to the four-way stop. Apparently, they are still a mystery to most drivers.

The most annoying social media trend award is tweeting, facebooking and blogging the exact same thing. If you’re going to do that, please specify one outlet as the original so we can unfollow all your copies.

The quickest fall from awesome to not again award goes to boiled eggs. We have eaten them every day this week and there are STILL half a dozen in our fridge.
