We lived!

It was dark (no lights), cold (no heater) and loud (from SDG&E making noise all night), but we made it through the night. Pheeeew! heh

I’m Nervous

SDG&E are working on something to do with the electricity under the streets tonight where I live. Which means they are shutting off all the power to my neighborhood between 10:00 pm and 8:00 am tonight. If I don’t go to bed right away, it’s going to be strange. Sit around and […]

Bluetooth Phone Control In A Car

You know what I wish someone would do? Come out with a way to control a Bluetooth phone hands free while in your car. The 2004 Acura TL can do it right out the factory. Seems strange that after-market manufacturers like Alpine wouldn’t jump on the opportunity. Not only would it […]

Internet Webcams? How About Remote Hunting?

Leave it to someone in Texas to come up with something like this. Someone spent $10,000 to rig up a webcam and a rifle so people visiting the site can actually aim and shoot live animals as they wander around. Bizarre…

Call 911 - Van Halen Might Show Up

I’m not sure if it’s strange or cool, but David Lee Roth is training to be an EMT in New York…

Virgin Mary Sandwich

Someone tried to sell a 10 year old grilled cheese sandwich on eBay that had bore the image of the Virgin Mary. eBay pulled the auction right before it closed, but the bidding was up to $22,000 and the auction itself was viewed over 100,000 times.
You know it’s a true miracle because after 10 […]

Quizno’s Retarded Gerbils

Quizno’s (which BTW is the best sandwich shop around) just opened a location close (finally). And it reminded me of the retarded gerbil commercials they ran earlier this year. If you never saw it, click here to watch one of them.
Apparently those mutant crack-babies like the moon too. Check it out over […]

Publish To Blogger Via Email

Did you know that you can publish to your blog simply by sending an email? I didn’t until I noticed it under the Email tab under Preferences.
This is my first post ever that I published without logging into Blogger. Let’s hope it works.

How To Hide Deleted Comments In Blogger

It’s really annoying when someone spams your comments in Blogger (or accidentally posts twice). You can delete the comment, but it’s not “really” deleted… instead it has a message saying the comment was deleted by an administrator. In the case of a spammer, it’s really ugly to have 20 or so of those […]

iTunes Music Store

Dude, let me just say how happy I am that the iTunes Music Store is around now. Before the music store, I would order a CD online, but get tired of waiting for it to come, so I would use Napster to download the album so I didn’t have to wait. Anyway, long […]

How Will You Remember President Bush?

Election day is finally here. I’m a registered voter in California, but I’m not going to vote because the electoral voting system is stupid. California is a lock for Kerry, so he gets all 55 electoral votes regardless of what percentage of California actually votes for him. If I lived in a […]
