Interesting story about what happened to a guy who used to rank for "MySpace Layouts" before he redesigned his website and was plummeted into despair.

Yeah, I heard about this a long time ago. Seems like it's old news but none the less, good thing to remember when you're ranking high on a website.

The disaster to rankings happened in 2007, so I'm not sure how he managed to get on Daily Mail today. He's probably plotting a comeback

One day, while I was still a little girl, I was over at my grandparent's house. My grandmother commented that she wanted a new toilet seat. My grandfather, a cranky but lovable Archie Bunker type, asked her what was wrong with the current toilet seat. Grandma said, "Nothing, but it's avocado colored. I'd like a light blue one." Grandpa went crazy, running around the house and yelling profanities. It was apparent that there wasn't going to be a new toilet seat purchased. My sister and I looked at him in shock and he said to us, "If it's not broken, don't fix it!"

Grandpa died in 1986 of a stroke (I guess he always got too excited about everything and stroked out!). When I visited my Grandmother a few days ago, I noticed that the same avocado colored toilet seat is still on her toilet.
