For those of you who are counting, this is post #96

Wow. Jurassic Park is SUCH a good movie.

How do I know this? Because I usually just can't really enjoy movies a second time, because I already know the storyline, and what's most important to me about movies is the story.

But I'm sitting here watching it, mostly because there's nothing else to do, and...lo and behold, I find myself actually INTERESTED. As in, eyes glued to the television. I know what's going to happen, but it's still just that good.

And for the record....Die Hard is the same way, only even better. And even better with a good beer in hand.

Also for the record....almost ANY movie is a good movie with a Chimay Bleue in hand.

Rubber-band minigun

For those of you who like guns, big guns, huge wooden guns with 24 rotating, rubber-band-firing barrels, or any and all of the above, check out this post on Engadget.com, with a video of something that you're definitely going to like.

I found my first Googlewhack!

If you don't know what a Googlewhack is, you should look it up on Wikipedia. Basically, it's a Google search query consisting of two words which only turns up one result. It's harder than it sounds.

After changing my away message this evening, I decided to look up the definition of one of the words I was using. Somehow, the idea of a Googlewhack came to mind, and I put in one other word, and whammo! I had myself a Googlewhack.

Now, the funny thing about Googlewhacks is that they cease to exist as soon as you post the two words on your blog, because then Google indexes your page and you become result #2. Since this royally sucks, I'm not gonna do that. However, I'm going to take a screenshot of the occasion and post it here, so I have permanent proof of the accomplishment. If you want to verify the results for yourself, just look at the image. However, I do request that you not forget the nature of Googlewhacks in your moments of virginal Googlewhack delirium. Please do not post these two words in plain text on your own blog/website/internet dumping ground. I thank you in advance.

Spears

Not the dill kind, though I don't like those much either. No, this is the first and last post I will ever make about Britney Spears.

I just wanted to extend an invitation to any of you who feel like experiencing a stomach-turning like no other. At least, when I had read three of the 'get well soon' messages from Britney's fans on her website, my stomach was definitely doing flips (no, this is not a joke). And all I had for supper was chicken and salad...you be the judge.

I don't hate Britney Spears. But I was physically nauseated by the content of the 'cute' and 'supportive' messages that have apparently been sent to her by her 'fans'. So I thought I'd pass along this pleasant sensation to you, my loyal readers.




Last EVER. I promise. I mean...NEVER again. Oh, and for those of you who are wondering why I even ended up at britneyspears.com ......see: bored. Also, see: I remembered that her website from a month ago had some bizarre picture of a tiger or something on it, and I was curious whether that monstrosity was still around (see further: very bored).

EDIT: I went back to the Firefox tab with the site open, to close it, and I literally (again, this is not a joke) almost threw up when my eyes chanced to hit upon some sort of drivel about how so-and-so was 'literally your BIGGEST fan'. Whew. Now heading out to play some futebol. Must...think....different....thoughts.

i can't concentrate...

From the I-hate-writing-papers department: PETA truly is the salvation of the world. This link may not be good for long, so if something bizarrely unrelated to PETA comes up, don't blame me. Blame meat-eating planet haters.

Like Al Gore. Apparently.

?

Heh heh.

OK, I realize that I'm bored today. But someone else is going to find this funny as well....

Homophonous phrases.
