Damn!

Good Luck and do have a click over to Lancome’s site and show ‘em the love! The Muse would appreciate it greatly!
How’s your day going so far? Mine is complete stress! One of the seven fans in my gaming box went boom last night so I’ve been going NUTS trying to locate a new one! Anyone know where I can find a 92MM M35105-58 with ball bearings and frames? I figure it’s worth a shot asking! The worst part is it’s one of the three fans that are cooling the CPU and I’m NOT in the mood to reconfigure the box fans to blow onto the CPU so I’m aimlessly wandering gaming forums and IRC asking around for a swap! At this point I’ll take anything new or used! My CPU is overclocked so it’s either find a new fan or sit down and rip the fans out and rearrange them! Nooooooooooo!
On top of that my work load is triple today since it’s Monday so I’m quite nuts! Plus I’m behind on comments and my email box is about to burst!
Can anything else go wrong today?
Grumpy Muse am I!
But hey some good news comes out of all this! The Winners to the Benefit B Spot contest!
Yay!
I got some interesting answers to the following question: where does the name and the “concept” Babel Fish originate from? Hint: Look to my profile and you’ll notice a hint and a clue that may help you solve this little puzzle!
Watch the clip below for the correct answer:
The hint in my profile would be the fact that my location reads: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe which is the 2nd Book in the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy Series.
So now you know that the babel fish I was referring to was from a series of brilliant books by the author Douglas Adams.
And the winners are………
Asta Abby and Marta
Congrats guys!
Just send me over an email with your address and I’ll send your prize over!
Thanks to everyone who participated and if you didn’t win this round you always have next time to look forward too!
In order to collect your prize please e-mail your complete home address to musings.of.a.muse@gmail.com! If I don’t hear from the winners within 7 days I will select new winners!
Sadly, a problem with Blogger caused all the comments to appear ahead of time but most people put their hardest googling techniques to work in order to get the correct answers to my question!
If you somehow missed it here were the questions:
Who is the girl below?
Hint: Mr. Saxon aka The *blank* once mentioned how her “father” (I use the term father loosely!) supposedly single handedly sealed the rift in The *blank* Cascade!
The girl is Jenny, the good Doctor’s Daughter! I used the term “father” very loosely as Jenny was created using some of the Doctor’s DNA. Sorry Who fans sadly Jenny was not created in the traditional sense and there was no hanky panky involved! The Muse arranged it so no sexual hijinks will occur unless I’m present within the Tardis. House rules and all that!
A little fun fact for the Who fans: Georgia Moffett is actually Paul Davison’s real daughter! Pretty awesome right?
If you filled in the blanks correctly and said the Master you’d be right! Mr. Saxon was an alias for the Doctor’s arch enemy, the Master (RSVP Roger Delgado! The one true Master in the Muse’s eyes!).
Although it hasn’t happened yet, the Master does indeed mention that the Doctor single handedly sealed the rift in the Medusa Cascade.
Yay if you got all the answers correct! I wish I had a SpinLash to give to each and everyone of you but sadly I only had three to give away but we always have next time right?
I got a ton of comments in regards to the SpinLash but I won’t be posting the comments until the contest ends. I forgot to mention that the contest ends on Friday!
I’m having an absolute blast (and a laugh) with the answers! You cheeky little monkees! How many of you googled? Go on admit it!
Whether you knew the facts or you googled I wanted to say thanks for participating! I’m really enjoying reading the guesses and replies!

Here’s an affordable tool you might want to add to your beauty arsenal:
The SpinLash!
SpinLash is a revolving brush that coats each of your lashes (both lower and upper) with mascara while avoiding clumping! If you have a problem with clumping this be the tool for you!
I don’t really have much of a problem with clumping but I must admit that this definately does a mighty fine job of grabbing each lash and coating it in mascara plus not only separating my lashes but adding nice volume at the same time.
I was a bit scared of placing a spinning brush anywhere near my eye area however it works basically the same way your regular wand would aside from the fact it rotates. The bristles revolve all the way around in a gentle, slow motion not only coating your lashes with your mascara but also curling them up and out plus separating them and adding volume.
The SpinLash is only $14.95 USD and comes with it’s own mascara however, in my humble opinion, the best part of this product is you’re able to use it with your own mascara! For me that’s a total plus!
The mascara this comes with isn’t too bad and hey it’s free so no rants from me about that however I prefer using the unit with my own mascara. I tried it with it’s own mascara plus my Majorca Majolica mascara. I was astounded with the results I got when using it with the MJ Mascara. MJ adds super volume to my lashes anyway but when used it in conjunction with the SpinLash I was impressed with the glamorous look of my lashes!
The brush on the SpinLash is soft rubber which makes for easy clean up. I used it and proceeded to dunk it in alcohol and wipe clean after use. The mascara came off fairly easy plus it prepped the brush for my next use.
The positive experience of having one product to not only curl my lashes but also apply product with the added benefits of separating my lashes and adding extra volume is definately a likey for the Muse! Whether this will completely do away with my beloved lash curler remains to be seen but it’s definately worth checking out for yourself plus you can’t really go wrong for the price!
The SpinLash in Action!
If you’re Asian and you’re plagued with short, stubby lashes this might be the tool for you as the unit does a good job of grabbing the lashes and pulling them up and out!
All in all it’s an interesting tool and worth trying out for yourself!
They have some upcoming products that caught my eye on the website so do visit! One of which was entitled SpinBlush! Whoa…the Muse likes the sound of that!

Hint: Mr. Saxon aka The *blank* once mentioned how her “father” (I use the term father loosely!) supposedly single handedly sealed the rift in The *blank* Cascade!

That’s one person you need to identify in order to be entered to win a free SpinLash and two blanks you need to fill out in order to win a second surprise!
There is one other catch to winning! Should you win you’ll have to review the SpinLash at Musings! The Muse wants to know what you think of the SpinLash!
First of all I’d like to say excuse my rudeness for not replying individually to each one of you! I normally reply to all comments but during this contest I didn’t because I didn’t want to confuse myself too much while writing on the names for everyone that participated
Secondly, THANKS! I appreciate each and everyone that commented and joined in the fun!
And finally the winner will be announced tomorrow morning! Which means you still have a little more time to join in if you haven’t already!
