a dingo ate my baby..

Gotta work late this weekend, so the whole deal is shot.. but hey what can you do?

-here is some justice. I love stories like this.

-Talk about putting a happy spin on things: This is amazing. There is a parade. Float loses brakes. Citizen struck by float. Serious head injuries. Except for a tragic accident, the 35th annual Bath Heritage Days parade went off without a hitch.
Then the article spews a bunch of fluff and paints a picture of a parade that was perfect in every way. They never actually said what the incident was. One of the FARK readers found that in another article WTF? Is this FOX news reporting about the war or something?

Some contractors were at the hospital today. They had a Toro Dingo. I have seen those before and thought they were cool little front loaders. But these guys had attachments for it filling up a trailer. What a great little machine. They used a forklift to bring in palets of stuff, a tiller to cultivate the bed, a front loader to bring in mulch and I also saw an auger on the trailer as well as a back hoe. So I looked up the attachments that are available for it. Sheez, there are over 30 of them. You can even get a cement mixer on it. I think I need one of them. That and another job.

-OUCH "we're not doin' that anymore!"

-HOLY CRAP!



-Better then this I guess.

-DAMN! This guy knows how to use Illustrator. Amazing stuff.

Will the iPhone blend?

Instead of blending it, use it to control your PC.

Speaking of Apple, looks like their market cap passed Dell and Oracle. Suck it, Micheal Dell. Remember this quote?

In 1997, shortly after Mr. Jobs returned to Apple, the company he helped start in 1976, Dell's founder and chairman, Michael S. Dell, was asked at a technology conference what might be done to fix Apple, then deeply troubled financially.

"What would I do?" Mr. Dell said to an audience of several thousand information technology managers. "I'd shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders."

Friday!

-I will be curious to see how much these guitars go for. TOM JONES! WOOO

Happy 4th.

Hope everyone enjoys the day. It is really nice here although a little hot. Hey, it's July in Iowa. Dwight (big D) and family are coming over to go boating and grill out. Then it is off to the fieworks in Coralville.
This is a great test. I counted 16 white shirts, but the end was a total surprise.

some things..

some things you did not know the iPhone could do :-)

JUSTICE!!!

Thought this was kind of funny:






-I hate tech-scalpers. You know the guys that buy up the latest gadget and put it on ebay. We waited months to get a Wii because none of the stores had them. But yet, there were a million of them on eBay. So this video made my day.

Sunday.

You know.. Leo's post of Heart's video back in the glory days reminded me of something. Last week they were pimping a comp. cd of metal bands on TV. Vixen was on there. Don't know much about them, but I remember people saying, "they are hot". As far as "they are a great band"... not so much. So I wondered what happened to them and consulted Google. The good news is they are still at it. Playing live. The bad news is there are photos.
