Scams on the Internet

People have found the most ridiculous ways to make money now. I stumbled into a certain site today, that I was to check out for my friend. They had a lot of absolutely ridiculous talk on their home page. Keep in mind that the formatting is entirely the company’s and that this [...]

Buying Things

Man do I hate buying things. So I’m sitting here in my dad’s office at the new house, and we’re trying to decide if it’s time I join the digital world with one of these smartphones. I’m really interested in the Blackberry Pearl. This little fella appears to be all the I could [...]

Nerds

At this time of appreciation, I thought I would give thanks to nerdiness. The movie pretty much speaks for itself, but I like to keep you all updated. The best are the girls.

Firefox Savviness

Fantasy Sports

I’m getting absolutely railed in my Yahoo! fantasy football league. It was an auto-draft, and I got whoever I got. I think I updated in week two and then again today (Week 11). I have almost no interest in changing my team every week, paying attention to scouting reports or really caring [...]

Macs in ads: the newest fad

Every ad I see on TV has a mac user. If there are two users, and one is dumb, the dumb one has a pc, usually an HP by my trained eye. Now mocking HP is absolutely fine. They have the coolest ads and the crappiest computers. But where did this [...]

Chuck Norris puts the "laughter" in "manslaughter".

Well aren’t I in a funny mood. I know these are soooo yesterday but ah hahahaha
Chuck probably takes the cake.
Chuck Norris was originally cast as the main character in 24, but was replaced by the producers when he managed to kill every terrorist and save the day in 12 minutes and 37 seconds.
More funniness [...]

Computer Says No:

This is only mildly funny, unless you know me, in which case you’ve already learned my newest expression. I have to nail down my british accent though.
