Rantings, mostly…

I am amazed that when given the opportunity to tell the truth, a fib permeates the innocence of my children’s vocal chords.

What dastardly evil could control my children in such a manner?

For the last couple of months I have been partaking in a voluntary study (one which I am conducting) along with my children.

The whole purpose of this is to have them prove to me that getting their “ass fired up” works less than not doing anything about their lies, whatever misbehaving they might do, and doing poorly in school and their studies.

So far Project “Ass Cool Down” (the opposite of “ass fired up”) has been a mix of wondrous highs yet at the same time has yielded a multitude of horrific lows.

Again I ponder, knowing that you have a “get out of jail free” card, what would make you purposely push the limit?  The entire reason for this is not to see how many whippings you can avoid, but to see if you can understand the importance of truth over fiction.

Hrmm… for the time being the “Project” shall stay afloat.

I cannot guarantee however when the government will pull funding.

Today is my mother’s birthday.  August 10th was my wife’s birthday.

Can anyone explain to me how on my wife’s birthday I was scheduled to get a tooth removed (tooth behind my upper-left canine is no more)?

Can anyone explain to me how on my mother’s birthday I had the roots of my left big toe’s nail seared with phenol acid?  (No more ingrown toenails, yeah!)

My oldest daughter’s birthday is November 9th…

…I am thinking about getting castrated.

What in the hell is going on?

Microsoft has upgraded their site as well!?

It appears as though they have littered it with WebTrends gobbledygook and done a small redesign to the multiple scripted menus.

Again… I am not impressed.

In fact, to be perfectly honest, what in the hell does Microsoft need a web analysis and marketing company for?

Is it because of all these years of horrible markup, code, database inconsistencies, malfunctioning interrelated sites hosted on numerous servers which inevitably falter bringing several hundred pages down at once and almost *always* resulting in data loss?

Just goes to show that something can be big and bad (rich and famous) and still be dumber than a retarded chimpanzee.

It looks like Dictionary.com finally made the upgrade to a new layout and added even more premium content for subscribers.

I must say I am impressed.

Now if only they would change it back.

Well, looks like I screwed up the whole blog at least three times a week thing again.

Let us be honest… who the hell really cares?

I have been busy marking up pages that would make any web developer worth have a grain of salt, cry. When I say cry, I mean weep with such sorrow as to possibly incite them to shoot me in the face.

Yet another atrocity that Kaplan has bestowed on me. Not for my benefit and surely not for my perusal, but forcefully shoved down my throat. What am I to do except conform and try to make the best of it?

Yeah, I have no clue either.

I know one thing though… Kaplan is *not* getting my money for a Bachelor’s degree.

Um… wow.

That does not even do it justice.

Epson it seems is toying with a… well, *toy* helicopter.

Check it out here and here.

I also found two videos at Google Video.

Epson helicopter I and here: Epson’s tiny helicopter II.

To think, I almost bought the Micro R/C Helicopter from ThinkGeek.

Ah, who am I kidding? I am still going to buy the helicopter from ThinkGeek!
