Wild Day

I don’t know what’s in the water, but the kids were very cranked up today. I guess Springtime does it.

Simply Wireless

I now have a wireless Internet connection in my humble rental. Granted, it is a wireless connection to a dial-up connection, but I can go anywhere in the house and surf. I’ve taken advantage of it mostly while lounging in my new recliner or kicking back on the couch (also new!). If only I had… Read more »

14 Ounce Pepsi

Cans of my favorite carbonated beverage, Pepsi now comes in 14 oz. cans. THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END! Cans of pop have been 12 oz. for a very, very long time. Our standard pop machines won’t be able to dispense these bastardized cans. We must put a stop to this! If we don’t,… Read more »

Relaxed

I no longer have “miles to go before I sleep” (at least for a little while). I don’t get to feel this way very much. All is well in my little world at the momment. Now all I gotta do is drink a Red Bull to wak e up :)

Best Electronics Duster Ever

I bought some of those Endust wipes for electronics, and I must say, they do a fantastic job. Cleaning an LCD with Windex usually leaves a wierd purplish film which blurs the display. The Endust wipes left my LCD, CRT, and TV screen spotless. If you’re an electronics clean freak, you’ll probably want to get… Read more »
