I’m Tired and It’s Your Fault

Well, probably not, but now you’re paying attention. First, for the Lost fans out there, I present to you, by way of Sue, Barenaked Hurley which is hysterical. All but one of the video links are removed for DMCA violations but the lyrics are still posted. And the audio for the current entry works fine. […]

NASA Confirms Life On Mars

Well, almost. Bacteria is life of a sort. NASA is expected to confirm that there was life on Mars sixteen million years ago. They have reportedly found evidence of bacteria that does not have terrestrial origins. This advance report in the UK’s Telegraph is astounding. Dr Emily Baldwin sums it up best herself, “If the […]

Happy Thanksgiving…

Thanks to FSJ for this article: Microsoft, the largest bastion of evil outside of Yormark’s office, hosted a conference on Windows Mobile technology called Mobius 2009. There were 25 people in attendance. Picture one [Link] shows the presentation being done. On a Mac. Maybe it’s because of the 25 people they invited — see picture […]

A long post with lots of stuff in it

I don’t even know where to begin because it’s been a very eventful two days since my last post. I guess I’ll start with the fact I went outside and notice there is a big screw in my tire, and I’ll have to deal with it tomorrow somehow. Of course it’s tomorrow: the same day […]

Headache

I’ve had one all day. So there. I woke up and went with Karen to Lincoln Road. We had breakfast, walked around, looked at some stores, and then went to Epicure. Epicure sells Smarties! And real English clotted Devonshire cream. I bought the Smarties and a Doctor Brown’s Black Cherry soda. Came home and did […]

A Pair of Chuckletrousers and 2038 Random Boogers

This post has nothing to do with that. In fact, I refuse to explain it. Those of you who know, get it. The rest of you don’t. — CMOT TMPV    (That was fun.) Right. Let’s start with an e-bay item which is a true rare piece of history. Yes, that’s an original Apple I computer. […]

End Of NIFS and the Flight Home

The purple bit is excerpted from our corporate Facebook page (full note here): We’ve always had warehouse cats, for over 30 years in fact. We’re on train tracks – now abandoned — and if you’re on train tracks, you have a mouse problem. After trying two-legged professionals, we found the four-legged professionals worked better, are […]

Another Day At NIFS

Today was the big day. The first meeting was at 730am at the buffet. Yay buffet and that in turn was followed by the show from 9am to 4pm. I did a quick lap (about 5 hours) and near the end though it odd nobody called me. I opened my phone and I had 5 […]

One Day Down

Today was a busy, busy day. Sleep? I do not understand this word and wish someone would explain it to me. The day started with our first meeting at 830 am and we moved it to another venue due to crowds but were done in by service. I got a really, really, really awesome gift […]
