A Christmas Story.

December 30th, 2006 · No Comments

Gather round children and hear of tale about how Uncle Jason spent a Christmas trying to figure out why his new car wouldn’t start.
Twas the day of Christmas and all through the house all the creatures were stirring even that lazy old dog was chasing a mouse. When what do my ears do hear but a small [...]

Christmas ‘06? Screw that I’m planning for Christmas ‘07.

December 28th, 2006 · No Comments

In case anyone is fishing for next year’s presents (hint, hint). I’d like to official state that I would like one of the new Denon’s that will be doing HDMI 1.3/1080p. This will go well with a new 1080p projector and PS3.

Wii Updates.

December 22nd, 2006 · No Comments

Woke up this morning and my Nintendo Wii was glowing blue. I turned it on to find out that the Weather Channel is now availible. I spent several minutes playing with the globe and checking out the various places around the world.

Then I checked out the Wii shop and a beta version of the Internet [...]

I concede..

December 14th, 2006 · 2 Comments

So what started as trying to win Hoover some gadget 3 years ago has turned into a sort of holiday tradition. I’m talking about teh American Express My Wishlist contest that happens twice a year. Basically if you have an AMEX you can get in on limited items that have been reduced drastically in price. [...]

Carbon Fiber(re) Mac Book.

December 13th, 2006 · 1 Comment

Wow! I wonder if the Vinyl Sticker will work on the Aluminum of the MacBook Pro case. Hmm..
This is so very hot! It doesn’t void the warranty like a ColorWare mod would and being that it’s durable should help prevent scratches and discoloration of the MacBook. Though, I wonder if removing the stuff will leave [...]

OMG! P0N!3s!

December 12th, 2006 · No Comments

Been to Target/TRU lately? If so then you’ve probably seen one of these new creepy toys, The Furreal Friends Butterscotch Pony from Hasbro.

Every girl dreams (Including Hoover’s) of having her very own pony! With realistic animation, movement and sounds, this incredibly lifelike pony is a very special, once-in-a-lifetime friend. This adorable pony stands over three feet [...]

Help Wanted

December 12th, 2006 · No Comments

Had a discussion at work yesterday about some people looking for jobs. We thought it would be rather high-larry-us if we setup some fake websites to send to people when they would say they where looking for jobs. Of course the companies quickly came from such popular shows as MacGuyver, Knight Rider and Mission Impossible.

Workout Mix

December 8th, 2006 · No Comments

So every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for the past 5 months I’ve been working out on our BowFlex. I’m very pleased to say that this morning I flirted with 25lbs lighter then I was 5 months ago. That would mean that I have almost made my goal weight. I’m rather quite pleased with myself at [...]

smack > w00t.

December 7th, 2006 · No Comments

Don’t get me wrong, w00t was the one that started this crazy train of “one deal a day” but as of late it’s been a bit of a bore. You see, I’ve been keeping a secret from my fellow w00t’rs and that secret is Jellyfish and the Smack Deals.
You see, unlike w00t, the price [...]

Getting into the Christmas Spirit.

December 7th, 2006 · 1 Comment

My dad sent me this email with a lot of classic Calvin and Hobbes Christmas related comic strips. I’ve included them here, basically because I have nothing of interest to talk about. My personal favorite(s) is the one with the one marked with a star.
