this guy is a genious. He doesn’t update his site nearly as often any more, but I think if you read some of the posts on his site, and dont laugh hysterically. then I probably don’t want to talk to you.

start off with this: One thing PC users can do that mac users can’t

an interesting list of drink related myths and whether they are true or not. Like this one:

1. Bottled water is more pure than tap water.

   False: Tap
   water is guaranteed safe for consumption. It is controlled regularly to
   see whether it is free from any harmful chemical and bacteriological
   presence. It is often labeled as unsafe because of the unpleasant taste
   of the chlorine in the water. This bad taste disappears after leaving a
   pitcher of tap water in the fridge or adding a slice of lemon into the
   pitcher of tap water. But in regions where the tap water is high in
   nitrates, it is better to drink bottled water.

speaking of top 10 lists. Look at this: Top 10 worst company url’s.

I am not sure which is better, whorepresents.com or therapistfinder.com..

Desktop Tower Defense is the best game ever created. I can’t stop playing it.

I gained some respect for the young fella that is Leonardo DiCaprio after watching The Departed, but this article really amuses me. 

Haha, Titanic made him want to quit acting. That is…until he looked at the balance of his bank account again 

Check this article out… It made me laugh (then cry) when I noticed how many of these apply to where I work.

Many many moons ago I started working on a event calendar type site where people could go to find open mic nights that were going on in their area.

Thanks to Alicia (for the web design work) and Jason (For the spiffy graphics) the site is finally up and running.

I encourage however few there are of you that look at my blog to check it out and tell me what you think.

So go check out http://openmicnight.net

Also, despite what this guy thinks. I refuse to accept calling a microphone a “mike”. My plan for the site is to eventually get picture up of many of the different venues and also add in reviews/comments and such, but I figured this was a good start. The other day,  a visitor even submitted an actual event

this is what you get for willingly going into that stupid apple store in New York City:

Dumb glass elevator gets stuck

I use spurl.net to save and organize all the sites and pages I come across. The problem is that usually I don’t really have the time to organize them properly or even read whatever article is on the page. So, as a result, among the 30 or so folders I have everything organized in, i have one folder called “Look At”. It has a whopping 450 saved bookmarks in it right now..all stuff that at one point or another I decided was either interesting or useful, and that someday I would actually want to read it, so, over the weekend, I have been trying to clean up that folder. Among other things, I came across this gem of a story:

Monkey cops keep the peace among groups

A society of monkey cops….ahhhh the possibilities. This just brings up tons of images from that episode of the simpsons where Homer gets a bunch of monkeys to re-enact the civil war. Damn monkeys are always getting drunk…..

This site has to be the best thing ever: Snubster

Its a Anti-Social networking site….

These lists can contain items or people. If you choose people, supply an email address to identify the person. The email address will remain private, but we’ll send them an email letting them know that they’re either on notice or that they are now dead to you.

1. Drakojan Skies 2 – its a flash based game, but pretty fun, both a first person and a side scrolling shooter in one.
2. G.I Joe PSA’s: Redone – Kim sent this link to me today, and at first glance I thought it was the original fun PSA’s that were at the end of every G.I. Joe cartoon. Instead, some guys overdubbed them all with differant voices and such. Most of them suck, but there were a few gems like:

• Gi Joe PSA 6
• GI Joe PSA 20
• Porkchop Sandwiches
• Nose Bleed
• Raggae Singer
• Beltch

Who’s Kim you ask? you may never know…

1. Dish Network drops Lifetime – everyone knows that channel sucks
2. High Speed Photography Flickr Group – a collection of high speed photos of various things, like a bullet (or some metal object) flying through a jello mold)
3. favorville.com – its another social networking website, but its geared towards helping people, or asking other people for help (in many ways)
4. Elmo tells little kids they are going to die – that says enough
5. Make your own macro lens out of a pringles can – The howto is with a Canon EOS 20D, but it should apply to any 35mm SLR camera…including the one that I want that I don’t own
6. Make your own Ecosphere – I was in brookstone right before christmas and they were selling these things for like $40 or so, now you can make your own. Only when you touch it, the mall fire alarm won’t go off…like what happened to me

Since I waste far too much time online, I figured I am going to try to start something new. kind of like an “Interesting links of the day” post every day.

You can subscribe to just the links RSS feed if you don’t want to be subjected to any of my other random posts.

So, here are the ones I stumbled across today:

1. 1000′s of archived schematics. If you are looking for electronic stuff to try building. This is the place to go. All for free
2. AllPeers.com – an extension for firefox that effectively turns it into a bittorrent client. Its “not released” yet though. Bastards
3. Which gun suck, which guns rock….in Iraq – not sure how accurate this is, but still kind of interesting
4. The History of Microsoft – I have mixed feelings about this one. Its a 9 minute video basically giving the history oof how microsoft sucks…but its produced by “MacTV” and is all maccentric. Which is bad in my book, but sometimes youo have to make friends with the enemy….
5. The stabilizied Zabruder film – don’t know if it is really just digitally stabilized, or if it is a hoax, but still interesting. I never really got to watch the whole film anyway. Maybe I should have at least rented JFK at some point (from wfmu.org)
6. How to grow tomacco – if you are in any way a simpsons fan, you know what this is.
