Gone to the dogs

Every once in a very great while you run into something that rings so incredibly true that you must pass it along to others. Today I stumbled on this little bit of truth - just sitting around waiting for someone to tell others about it:
“This may be the first time you’ve ever heard this, […]

To typo or not to typo

I have admitted it before and will admit it again: my posts are full of grammatical errors and typos. My budget does not allow for me to hire a good editor, so everyone that reads this seems to have been kind enough to let me have a pass with all my run on sentences and […]

Who gives a tweet?

I have been using Twitter for a while now (more here or on the sidebar). Twitter is just a quick way to say whatever the heck you are doing via the web or text message. Most of the time I twitter via SMS because it is faster for me. When I started using it, I […]

Tornadoes up my alley

Having spent most of my life in Oklahoma, I don’t spend too much time worrying about tornadoes. I know they are going to come here, so my house is not located in Moore (which has a 6 or 7 mile stretch that has been regularly wiped out by tornadoes). Right now Oklahoma is in the […]

Interesting Camera Phone Stats

I was wandering around on flickr this afternoon and somehow ended up on one of their available stats pages. It lists which camera types are most popular for taking pictures to upload. Granted it does not list all camera types as some cameras do not provide the information, but it is pretty interesting nevertheless. I […]

A lifetime of video games

I was watching this YouTube video of the history of video games (1972-2007) and it is 4 minutes and 57 seconds of video game clips. As I was watching this little gem of a video and reminiscing about Adenture, Castlevania, Donkey Kong, Frogger, Pac Man, Leisure Suit Larry, Tetris, Lemmings, and many many many more. […]

One Mundane Meme

Favorite laundry detergent: I use Ulta Tide because it cleans my clothes and that is all you can really ask of your laundry detergent.
Favorite item used for an unintended purpose: I use toothpaste to polish the silver and it really works. I can’t stand the smell of the silver polish stuff, so I have a […]
