Monday.

Memorial Day. I have today off and actually don't have to go back until Thursday. Whoot.
I was mowing the yard the other day and looked up and saw an Infinity pulling up in front of our house. It was Stove and Kim. Good to see them.
I am working on the shop over the vacation. Got some cabinets done and that helped get some crap off of the floor.
Mary and I are going out for dinner tonight. 19 years ago today we were married. Sheez. That is hard to believe. She is one lucky gal!

Oops.

If you are going to drive a city bus, and you can't help but side-swipe a car, make sure it is not one of the most expensive cars ever put on the road. These poor cars have a sad history. Eddy Griffin crushed one into a wall and I never really did figure out what the hell happened with the other one. But it is weird and interesting story none the less.

-PCWORLD had a list of the top products on 2007. PCWORLD rated OSX 10.4 in the top ten. I love the short quote about it.
9. Apple Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger"
(operating system; $129) Quick: Name a good Vista feature that goes beyond what's in Tiger. Yeah, we can't either.

monday

Bummer. 24 is over now. Kind of a slow ending, but another great season overall.

Here is the video that ended one career. Hopefully it ended the career of the guy that came up with the idea too. Mary and I always joke about the dance, but for some reason I looked it up today and found out it was even worse then I remember. My fav. is after he rolls on the floor and runs away from the camera like a little girl.


No matter what you think of Al Gore, you gotta like 3 Apple 30" cinema displays.

-Here is a Woz update.

Sunday.

Here Leo. Have fun with this one. If you are a state senator that voted to impose a fine on drivers talking on phones, don't slam your state issued vehicle into the back of another car while you are talking on your phone. That just looks bad. At least after she crashed that nasty hybrid suv, they punished her by making her drive a Caddy STS. Ouch. And the fine has not gone into effect yet, so she's cool.
-Looks like Guitar Hero is hitting the bar scene now. Hehe.

Sat.

Had to work today. *ack*

-Why can't these damn people just play a guitar like they are supposed to? Pretty good stuff.

-13 year old boy was blinded for life. Sad story.

historic garage


This garage was just declared a national land mark. Here is why.

-Here is a kind of freaky video. It is a helicopter flying overhead. The rotors sync up with the frame rate of the camera and give a cool looking effect.

back to work!


We had a nice Mother's Day. Yesterday we went up to C.R. to visit "big" Tim and on the way we picked up a paddle boat. We had a nice visit up there and on the way home we stashed the boat at a friend's house. This morning we went out to breakfast and when we got home, Tim and I went over and got the boat for mom.
We spent the day floating around and paddling up a storm. That is really relaxing and fun. Sounds silly but between that and playing Wii tennins I am worn out.

Or a can of spam?

"As unnerving as the Fort Dix terrorism plot was, it could have been all the more worse if the weapons of choice for alleged assailants had been .50 caliber assault guns instead of AK-47s," said Assemblyman Reed Gusciora, D-Mercer"
So based on that logic, NJ Legislators think they should outlaw .50 cal guns? Like a terrorist is going to come into this country and plot to kill people with a .50 but then stop and say, "No, Ikmaj, we better not do that. If we buy that gun we will be breaking the law. Lets go home."
WTF are these people thinking. I am not a NRA type, nor am I an anti-gun person. I am, however, an Anti-lets-over-react to everything and use far-fetched scare tactics to promote my agenda-type person. I heard this arguement a few years back and the anti-gun person went on and on about how much damage this gun can do and we should ban them. The NRA guy responded by simply saying that these guns weigh XX lbs. and are XX feet long. More importantly they have NEVER been used in a crime in the united states. 'NUFF SAID!

So the guy who bid 10 million..

The guy that bid 10 million bucks for the general lee has failed to deliver the goods and Bo is going to court.

Wow, the French economy got a HUGE boost today. Bill O'Reilly lifted his boycott of French goods! The funny thing is that our import of French goods is up quite a bit from the time he imposed it. What a dork. He did not lift it because it is silly to spread hatred for a country just because they did not back us on a war that pretty much everyone knows was bullshit. He did it because he likes the new president. Otherwise I guess we would still hate them for not being as dumb as us.

Okay, this is kind of hard to watch, but you gotta promise me that if you do watch it, you will stay for the finish. I promise it is worth it.

FUKE YO!


Mary and I went to the old house to check out the sidewalks. Part of selling the house was that we had to have 2 squares replaced (per the city). We have money in escrow for it and have been waiting for the guy to get it done. We got there and the first thing I noticed was that the Habi-crap for Humanity house had a mowed lawn and our old house did not. Kind of a switch.
When we got to one of the sidewalk squares we saw that the kids from the 'hood had written in it. I expected to see a date, or perhaps some kid's name. But not "TINA ASS BITCH" and FUKE YO"
"fuke yo"? I guess that just confirmed why we moved out of there. Not only are they distructive assholes, but they can't even spell. Thank you, Iowa City for importing all of the trash from Chicago. Great plan.
In the paper, somebody from the school was saying how 1/4th of all kids eat free now. That means they get free breakfast also, even though mom gets food stamps to pay for food at home. He mentioned that there are special needs for these kids and that they must be taken care of. But he assured us that they were not taking away from the other (tax paying) kids.
BULLSHIT. You mean to tell me there is an endless supply of money and they just buy whatever they need? No. It came from somewhere.

Say it with me....

FRIDAY! WHOOT!
-This is just wrong. WTF is coming of our country? Every damn time we have a tragedy in our country anymore, we start by over-reacting. In this case they arrested a kid for making a map for his video game? WTF? I know that every time some kid goes wack0 we all say that there were warning signs. But for every one that goes wacko there were 1.75 million kids that gave off a few of the signs too, but went on to become musicians, lawers, and even our current president. It is good that Tim Burton is not in school today or he would be somebody's prision bitch by now.

-It looks like the (almost) 10 million dollar bid on the General Lee was real. OMG. WTF?

-In case you have not read about the ass-hat judge that is suing the dry cleaner for losing his pants here is the story. Oh, did I mention he wants $65 million dollars.

Jessee to the rescue!

Thank God! Jesse friggin' Jackson is going to take on big oil companies. As you may know, Exxon's outgoing president got a FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR parachute. Yea. I know.. oil speculation dictates the price .. blaah blaah blaah. But I am sorry if you can do that then your margin is too high. If your profits last year were 36 billion bucks (the most of any company in history), then you can NOT justify what you are doing as though it is dictated by the increased price of oil. Bullshit.
But it is okay. Jessee is going to make it right. He is going to take on oil companies because they are getting fat at the expense of our nation's economy. Wait... What?
Oh, I am sorry. I guess all of that stuff I just said does not matter. It seems that Jesse is going to take on big oil because there are not enough minorities involved.
They are going to buy stock so they can attend meeting and have a say in what happens.
NOTE TO JESSEE: If people wanted to buy stock and have a say they could have. But they don't. Why? Because nobody gives a shit and more importantly, you are the only one with enough money to buy enough stock in companies to make a difference. But the fact that you can tells me that you are just like big oil.
You are getting rich and fat, and while you can kid yourself all you want, you are hurting this country.
Dumb ass.

-I am just guessing that the doctor that is working on this pill is a guy.

-This guy is playing the Mario soundtrack on an 11 string bass. I could do that too, but I don't have an 11 string bass. Show off.
