I'm not in the habit of staring intently at deposits my cats leave in their litter boxes. But this find stopped me dead in my tracks. I know the picture might gross people out, but if you imagine it was made with water, it's not so bad.

My husband thinks I should send it to the Playboy Corporation, but I sense they won't

My sister Ann and I are huge fans of the CBS reality show, The Amazing Race. We always thought we'd make a great team, mostly because we crack ourselves up traveling together.

Have you ever received pictures via email that you have to scroll all over the screen to view because they're too large to fit in one window??
