black Friday

31 October, 2006 11:55

Black Friday is almost upon us. Thank the monkeys I am no longer in sales.

The thought of the day irks me in a way I can not describe. Once in a while I will wake up in panic from a black Friday nightmare.

Anyone whom has been in retail sales knows what I am talking about. This day is the evil of all that is evil.

For those whom are shoppers, count your blessings. For you have probably had thought of murder on yourself.

So on this day, notice blunt hard objects around your location, and be extra nice to the cheerful sales rep helping you purchase that ever so important item...

Random Thought : Happy Halloween!

Ted Nugent explodes at the University of Wisconsin Memorial Union

26 October, 2006 09:29

Yesterday a Vietnam veteran confronted Ted for dodging the draft by shitting his shorts shortly before his draft physical.

After stating to Ted that his views were just a tad different than his, he replied "how so?". The veteran continued and said, "Whereas you urinated and defecated your pants to avoid duty to your country, I think you're a tratorous coward".

After several more spoken opinions, Ted Nugent hollered "FUCK YOU!"

The microphone was quickly shut off and he was escorted out of the theatre.

Random Thought : Hmm, RANDOM THOUGHT.

new spewage

23 October, 2006 16:44

The spew is looking a little better, in my humble opinion. I kinda got bored with the tan and grey look, so I added some blue and green spewage along with a new layout...

Random Thought : I got me some lucky charms!

POGO blackjack dealer is a thief!

21 October, 2006 19:21

POGO.com, put it away and give me a break! Really, what are the odds that your blackjack dealer will get a 20 or blackjack 90% of the time?

It not matter if you bet 50 or 250 tokens, the dealer is cheating you out of you hard earned rewards. I quickly lost almost 10,000 tokens in the last couple days.

This could be a sign (the second sign) that I am no good at this game, but probability, luck of the draw, and the so called random shuffling of the cards, leads be to believe I am one hell of a blackjack dealer, and the table is trying to rip me off.

I shit you not, give it a try... don't go crying to the cyber token bank, or whatever the hell you want to call it. Bullshit.

Random Thought : How many other people use a SwissTool to cut their cheese?

here we are, IE7...

19 October, 2006 12:10

I admit, I was a little worried about the final release of IE7. This was mostly because of W3C compliance, and CSS rendering proficiency.

With the browser open for the first time, I had the same feeling as when I shortly tested a couple of the release canidates. The window looks cluttered; rather ugly in my opinion, with menu options and browser functions ill placed for what I am used too. I like it simple however, some like the perplexity of protrusion - again, the ill placed buttons and menu items.

The first web page I went to, was of course myspew.com. I was happy to see that IE7, for the most part, successfuly rendered the CSS code. In all this glory, I moved on too my picture gallery where the browser crashed, asking if I would like to debug with VS. This was within the first five minutes of use.

Starting up IE7 and proceeding to the same page, the browser hung in as a team player.

I am not going to post a total opinion or guide to the newly released (final) Internet Explorer, since my use of it will be surely and purely for testing page renders.

However, I will tell you that my first impression, as described above, was a bit raw.

LED Pillow

18 October, 2006 11:24

My bed sits on a bunk bed above my couch in my bedroom. Like all of us, we sometimes loose position of our pillows in the process of nighttime tossing and turning.

I wake up, halfly, and rather perplexed, trying to find where the hell that ball of head support went off too. Is it to my left, the right, nope. It always tends to fall off the front side of the bed. However, being half awake, I always look in all the other usual spots before I discover the fluff where it normally lands.

Not anymore, check this out:

This LED-laden pillow runs on batteries or AC (wouldn't drool with the latter). You can purchase this nighttime coolness for a price of $499, OUCH!

Wild Things

16 October, 2006 16:04

Here is a poem I came across.. I like it, so here it is:

The Peace of Wild Things

"When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free."

--Wendell Berry

Random Thought : I wish all things were more simple, and without forethought of grief.
