STRANGE FINDINGS FROM THE INTERNET XXXXII

Man oh man, where do I start?

Robots are making their murderous return to the silver screen with the release of the new movie I, Robot starring the Fresh Prince, Will Smith. Maybe its because of this possible aspect of robots and mechanical advances that I would have to say a resounding "What the fuck?" to this. I liked it better when humble Japanese technicians were making cute, harmless robots that didn't mangle man-meat...

Its no secret that I travel a lot of times to Corpus Christi. I love the drive. Thankfully I don't need to use restroom facilities all that often on the roadways, but IM kind of surprised that there aren't as many restrooms and rest stops as there are in Australia. From what I gather from their website, either Australians have a huge incontinence problem or the rumors are true of Australia being the gayest country in the world and their restrooms are a nice meeting place for... Pissy little jiggers, they are...

If you read back in my archives to March of this year I updated a Strange Finding for Headvertise, a company that will pay you for wearing advertising on your forehead. I still say you're a sellout if you went for it, but I think plumbers will make a killing with Ass-vertise. You think IM making this stuff up?

Have you returned recently to have your co-workers pull a prank on you? Veg-out using your web browser and speakers to such soothing tunes as the sounds of New York,
a hairdryer, numerous typewriters and a vacuum. Man, nothing washes the sound of work away like the sound of work.

Speaking of work, here are some things to make your day less productive. This flower reacts to your mouse. It's slightly political, but a spectacular time waster. An even bigger time waster is Circles. Its complex in its simplicity.

Now get back to work, slackers!

Call me childish, Ishmael...



I wasn't around in the 1960's to have seen the Thunderbirds when they were brand new, but I remember KCIK Channel 14 (a precursor to KFOX 14) had played the series as reruns in the mid to late 1980's. After a long absence on television, TechTV (now called G4TechTV) brought the series back to run on cable, delighting me to no end.

It took me by surprise when I was watching TV this weekend that I saw the previews for the new live-action Thunderbirds movie. It may be a kids movie, but its the kind of movie that when it comes out on DVD, I will get.

Odd how some things come to you...

Sunday morning I woke up after having an interesting dream. I owned a motorcycle and was driving thru a rainy Corpus Christi, delivering the bike to someone. The interesting thing is I was accompanied by 4 other riders and one of the 4 had an interesting helmet, it was in the shape of and had the visor reminicent of an alien's face and eyes.

Well, I woke up to use the restroom so I couldnt finish that dream to see where I was going, but I had a call from my friend Will asking if it was possible to park his rare bike at my house while he goes on a business trip.

Odd, huh?

BLOGGER UPDATE

I couldn't stand the new dark colors so I updated to a more viewing-friendly set of colors.

Is it really a day off if you can't enjoy it?

I agreed to trade days with my friend Eddie at the station so I could work Saturday for him in return for him working for me Friday. It sounds good until you consider I still have to do a lot of crap EARLY in the morning and IM not looking forward to that. Since refilling my prescription, taking it makes me sleepier than normal and when I go to sleep I usually stay knocked out. Maybe getting more sleep will help out more.

Lets see, tomorrow should shape up like this:
1. Take dog to the groomers
2. Wash clothes
3. Wash bedding
4. Clean out Mustang
5. WASH Mustang
6. Clean room
7. Pay bills

When do I get to enjoy a day off?
