Which Do You Find More Helpful: GPS or Web Directions?
I spent some time exploring unfamiliar territory over the weekend and charted out my adventures and directions with Google Maps in advance.
I spent some time exploring unfamiliar territory over the weekend and charted out my adventures and directions with Google Maps in advance. Blame it on the Henny the night before, or my inability to chat with my copilot and drive, but I got lost. As we sat at the side of a sketchy road, frustrated and ready for a Garden Burger, I thanked my lucky stars for my iPhone. We were able to triangulate our position with the iPhone's GPS, update our directions, and get back on track, following the moving blue dot on the map until we reached our destination.
More than 75 percent of geeksugar readers claim to use GPS regularly, but about 58 percent admit it has led you astray at one point or another. I recognize using a GPS can be distracting, but I am always glad to have it when my primary plan (Google Map directions and instinct) fail me. Which travel tool do you think is more helpful?

Paris Hilton recently created a saucy scene at Cannes with her fella, but she offered a classic take on 1940's star Veronica Lake's golden curls on the MTV red carpet. She played up her eyes with black liner and light gold shadow, and a hint of purple liner under her eyes. Her post-French Riviera glow stands out with the help of sparkly bronzer and nude lips.

Her natural lip hue draws our attention to her shiny and tousled 'do, long lashes, and sweeping liner. It's all a little bit Tina Turner circa 1986 and oh-so-glam. What do you think?

Tears For Fears was right about one thing: everybody wants to rule the world. I am sorry to report that as awesome as we each think we are, that just ain't gonna happen because we're all pretty, well average. So, next time you are feeling a little mundane, crushed and low (it happens to the best of us!), visit My Life Is Average, a site that celebrates normal, mediocre stories.
Readers submit and vote on how "average" or "meh" the stories are. Tales range from "Today I was using my electric shaver to shave, half way through it ran out of batteries. I plugged it into the charger and finished. MLIA." to "Today I flipped an egg too hard and it slipped off the pan. I had another dozen so I made a new one. MLIA." Chin up. We're all in this together.

Cute Alert! Harry and Sallie Sue Say I Do
There's a scene in When Harry Met Sally where Harry says, "You know how a year to a person is like seven years to a dog?"
There's a scene in When Harry Met Sally where Harry says, "You know how a year to a person is like seven years to a dog?" and Sally gasps and quips back, "Is one of us supposed to be a dog in this scenario?" And goofy banter ensues. Luckily for Harry and Sallie Sue, the bride and groom in this video, being a dog is a-OK. The four-legged couple, who met on the streets of New York City, is just one of the canine duos featured on WeTV's Puppy Weddings web series. I find the episodes hilarious, but more than 80 percent of you think pet weddings are freaky so you may not agree. What's your take on these friends-turned-lovers?
