Word Clouds and a Belated Friday Funny

I recently found a link (thanks to a cool blog that I read sometimes) to a really fun word cloud generator...thingy...(I'm pretty sure that's the technical term for it...)

It is  Tagxedo.com

I made an Alaska themed cloud...using a cool quote by John Muir that says:  "To the lover of wilderness, Alaska is one of the most beautiful countries in the world."

And after I wrote in the text and chose the color scheme and the shape for the cloud, this is what happened:

I still have a lot to learn about word clouds and using that website...but it was fun to try something new!

And the Friday funny (that I forgot to post yesterday...oops!)...goes like this:

Well let me preface a little first...

We got 2 hotel rooms for Time Out for Women this weekend.  My mom, my sister Wendi, and my sister-in-law Cassie shared one room (#105), and my sister-in-law Kara, my friend Laura, and I shared the other room (#227).  After we checked in at the hotel, we went to our rooms.  (Laura was teaching me all sorts of iPhone tips and tricks, and we were having a marvelous time just hanging out.)

And then...(yes the funny is up next)...

We were getting ready to go get something to eat before the conference started, so Laura went to her car to get her suitcase.

When she finally returned to the room with her suitcase, she held up her key and said:  "in case you are wondering, this key DOES NOT work in room #231."

Oh Laura, you sure do make me laugh!  (Pickle?...another joke, and a story for another day...)

I had a wonderful time this weekend.  (And don't worry, I will write more about the conference later.)
