Thanks

Going to start with a redesign, just not happy with it at the moment.

Then I'll be adding a new area for the diet I'm about to start. I suspect that area will get the most attention as I'll be blogging my diet as it happens in a style similar to Tyler over at www.344pounds.com.

More to come, and look for the changes on site design to be happening very soon (might have already happened depending on when you read this).

Then an idea hit me, I had been testing out Windows 7 RC for a little bit on an underpowered laptop by Vista standards (runs awesome on that BTW) but really have had the urge to at least dual boot my primary system so I could really kick the tires.

So what if, instead of re-installing Vista...........

Just in the past few months I can recall people going nuts for the Denny’s free breakfast, then problems with a Popeye’s chicken promotion, and now the KFC Grilled Chicken / Oprah fiasco.

I just don’t get why people will wait in line for hours, or drive so far out of their way they use more in gas than the cost of the meal. Do people value their time so little?

It doesn’t even have to be a free situation, it can just be a deal (or perceived deal), like the “Black Friday” ads. People have literally been hospitalized and killed by the massive flock of people that show up to get these bargains.

Am I missing something? Let me know in the comments, which are of course free ;)

What is up with people these days? It’s like someone dumped asshole into the water supply. Everywhere you go people are in general complete dickheads.

The power of the almighty asterisk seems to completely nullify the false advertising regulations.

As long as a company includes that magical asterisk, they can shove some fine print anywhere they want.

This past weekend I finally completed all the major projects, so hopefully the time I've spent working on the house can now be used to add more content here.

More coming soon, stay tuned...

The first (and only at the time) comment on the article? “As long as he doesn't take a leak in public we'll be ok.”

Ahh, to be a sports fan in New Orleans!

We’re nothing if not a cynical bunch.

Now the area where I work has limited selections in driving distance. There’s a number of sit down restaurants, but you’d be hard pressed to get in and out during a normal lunch time and I typically take short lunches anyway (usually consisting of picking something up and eating at my desk while working).  I’ve got no clue what to get, then I stumble onto the following in the Entertainment section of Digg.

Apparently some teens working on a school project movie arranged with one of their dad's to film a scene for the movie at the dad's jewelry store.

So the kids get there, put on the ski masks and grab the weapons they had planned on using and run in, hold the place up, all that good stuff. Problem is someone sees this going on and alerts the cops.
