One thing that I like to do on my blogs, not just here at Jeoberpta, but on all of my blogs…is include images in my posts — I think visuals always help and they add a certain style to a blog post.

What I usually do is write a post, then think about what picture would look nice and fit in with it, then I start searching free photo sites and google image search and the like — once I find one I like I have to check I am allowed to use it, save it, resize it, upload it and insert it. It’s a bit of a hassle.

So, was I ever glad to come across AcoBox.com a few days ago! They offer free blog pictures, but what makes it so great is that I don’t have to worry about checking if I am allowed to use the image or not — if it’s on the site it’s OK to use. I also don’t have to save it and upload it before use as they host it for me and should it need resizing, I don’t even have to do that manually as it can all be done on site.

They just took all of the hassle of adding blog pictures to posts. Hurrah.

Team Vile 1 - Team Nice 1

The latest episode of The Biggest Loser USA ended in a draw, with Ed returning (or The husband of ‘The world revolves around me’ Heba, as he’s better known in this household) scoring a point for Team Vile…and Amy deciding to vote off Brady scoring a point for Team Nice.

I didn’t think it’d happen to be honest, I have seen enough reality tv show vote offs to know that when it seems like it’s a forgone conclusion, they will edit the heck out of everything to make it seem like there’s a chance it’ll go the other way, but it never does.

Kudos to the editors.

I have disliked Heba from the start, she’s so up her own backside it’s unbelievable — there’s nothing worse than a bitchy little girl who loves to point out and pick at others flaws, but cannot see her own. As for Vicky, she seemed nice enough and then all of a sudden *bam* out comes Vile Vicky, one of the most unpleasant TBL contestants ever — now don’t get me wrong, I don’t care that she’s trying to play the game, I don’t care that she’s in it for the money more than the weight loss — but she’s a genuinely unpleasant woman.

Doing a little dance and happy clap in front of a team who just had to vote someone out? Who does that? No class. at all.

I think the best word to describe that little alliance, is simply Highschool — it really says every thing that needs to be said doesn’t it.

I hope that the black team do a similar little dance that they voted off Brady, let’s see how they like that. *

Roll on next week. The fallout should be spectacular. I only hope that Bob doesn’t freak out on Amy, her game, her life, her choice Bob!

* actually I hope they don’t, and I know they won’t…but it’d be well deserved if they did.
