Researchers at the University of Nottingham say men who want to boost their sex appeal should try imitating the voices of stars like Roger Moore and Barry White.

They found that women think that men with deep, booming voices are more muscular and attractive, and have hairier chests than their higher voiced counterparts.

The research at the University of Nottingham was designed to explore the links between sexual attraction and vocal pitch.

These girls at the University of Nottingham would prefer Roger Moore to Alan Ball any day.
Dr Sarah Collins of the Behavioural Ecology Research Group recorded the voices of thirty four men aged between eighteen and thirty.

She then asked women to rate their attractiveness, age, weight and height.

The women almost universally agreed that they thought the deepest voices belonged to the sexiest men.

However, there is hope for those who can't get quite as low as Barry White. The women's idea of what the men looked like was always wrong!

I found this last night when I was on the phone with Alice. :P

Well, I got my Practice ACT results today.

Apparently I should be an editor. That seems pretty easy. Actually, VERY easy. Maybe I really should be an editor. I mean, I catch errors in books all the time. How bad could it be? (Although... I would have to work on the punctuation inside the quotation marks thing... one of the things I just can't seem to get.)

Mmm in other news... No Alice at school today. :(

'Twas quite lonely without her, even though she's not in any of my classes on Even Block days... I had to resort to popping into the Amnesty meeting at lunch because I had nothing else to do. :/

I think I shall make the lemon bars today. (So Alice, if you read this, and if you're not horribly sick, you should come to school tomorrow for that :D)

Oh no! -> Oh noes! -> Oh noses!

:D

I made the lemon bars. I have yet to try them though.

Baby doll is on her trapeze
Wearing the smile that she never sees

So Alice wants me to make her (vegan) lemon bars.

She's definitely not vegan, but she's lactose-intolerant. So I'm supposed to find her a vegan lemon bar recipe and then make some lemon bars. Fun stuff. :P

I'm pretty sure she's not allergic to eggs, so I guess I'll include those... see how it turns out...

Man. I need The Art of Falling Apart by Soft Cell. I wonder when they'll have it in the store... stupid not-having-it-in-stock...

I dreamt I was in a labyrinth of entrails.

The walls were red and gleamed a little. I don't know where the light was coming from... But it was like being on the inside of empty organs. And there were others. I don't know who they were... but it was like we were all there to be entertained. As if it were some sort of odd museum.

Every room stretched on for eternity, it seemed. You could see all the walls and the ceiling, which was very high, but it felt like there was infinite space between you and them, no matter how close you were.

I ended up having to cut Alice out of some sort of disgusting fat sac like thing. I'm not sure where I got a knife but I sawed through one of the sacs and then the other, with her coming out of the second.

It was like a play gym someone had fashioned out of living parts.

I've got pictures from the weekend. About sixty... and a video. I won't upload all of them, just a few highlights.

The disembodied head floating above the 'V' at Bubba Gump's.


Birdies at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.


Freaky rare otter.


Double fish. :P


Maggie's brother Matt... posing.


We got candy after the aquarium.

"What's that thing sticking out of his mouth?"
"Part of the last kid he ate, I'll bet"

Tea party.


The bakery/café place was... interesting. Very down to earth, homemade, hippie-like.

Very liberal.

Somebody was putting dirty phrases together. :0


"Yesterday one longed for your pie"

Today one longs for some Pepto-Bismol.

We went hiking.


There were sea lions.


And strange rock formations.


Black and white makes everything seem more intense.


Doe, a deer, a female deer.


Tree stuff.


Place where I wasn't supposed to go but went to anyway.


I got bored so I put a board in the water and tried to throw rocks on it.

Most of them bounced off. This is the first one that stayed on.

I accidentally knocked the first one off but I got a few more on.


You can see the rays of sunlight.

Ray, a drop of golden sun.

Me, a name, I call myself.

Just kidding. There was a heron hanging out on the rocks.

Enjoy my terrible camera work as I hike down an off trail.
