My Wii-jayjay...

Is totally glowing! It's prolly something stupid like results from
some contest I ignored. Hopefully it's a message challenging me to
super smash brothers or something. Tosha- I'm talking to u!

iPhone's Evil Twin

So I've been trying to find out the coolest things that I can now do on the go with my iPhone. I really should quit talking about it as I already feel spoiled for having it and I'm sure my friends are getting sick of it. Whatev- if I'm still finding new things, then I feel the need to share with others. So in this search, I found this:
iPhone

That's not the real iPhone. The site clearly says that
"iPhone and Linksys are registered trademarks of Cisco Systems, Inc."

wow, right? I wonder how many technologically challenged parents got their kids that mess for Christmas. Istead of getting the world's most functional mobile device, they'd get a phone that works only at home- over VOiP- that isn't even able to use 911 lol.

On another note- Tim always calls those dudes on their bluetooth headsets "BlueTools." Pretty clever, but I know what's worse- the "are you talking to me?" faces when I'm on the phone with my headphones. The headphones have a mic- you'd think they were designed to confuse passersby. At least the bluetooth headsets have flashing blue lights and are sometimes visible. The iPhone headphones w/ mic is cleverly disguised as REGULAR HEADPHONES.

& This

First it was a librarian at work, then it was HaHa.nu. Then I saw it on omgblog. They all point to this (and others like it):

from garfield minus garfield
it's pretty funny, but it's not the new black.

some of them are pretty good tho.

We Need To Talk

There's something about those words that just make me cringe. To me it sounds more like "something probably bad is in your near future." So in anticipation of whatever is coming, I've been distracting myself with this:

how obnoxious and awesome. i can't wait until this game comes out and I get to complain about not having it.

Some guy named Dan Liebert wrote this on McSweeney's.
oh wait- he's got his own site

umm and I just saw this on omgblog

and i want 2 hula chairs, please. That Ellen is one damn good salesperson lol

First One--- YAY

here's the first message, no singing i'm affraid tho.

Boulevard

I just saw this story about a robot this dude made to clear away drug dealers in Atlanta. (via Boingboing.net)
(BoingBoing post)

and it got me thinking that I knew where it was. The story mentions O'Terrill's owner, Mr. Terrill made it. O'Terrill's is here:

And that area is rough at night. just a few blocks over on this street simply named "Boulevard" is the worst lol. One time when riding with my friend Carol, we saw 2 drug deals and a prostitution. yeah- like we saw the whole hook go down when we were stopped at a light. you know- the two parties started going direct, met, then walked off together to find a secluded place. gross. and all this happened in a single pass. yeah man.

If we'd have had a water cannon, we could have done our own crime fighting. I'm putting it on my wish list.

Sarah



So this girl is so beautiful. Her name is Sarah and she's stunning. I went to high school with her and then, we looked like this:

Photobucket

see- now we live lots of hours away. I'm a library student and she in that magazine with the Golden Girls or something idk i can't really read. i love us lol.

Dial-And-Sing-Me-A-Song-Just-Without-Dialing-It's-More-Like-A-Click-But-For-Real-Sing-Me-A-Song

They Might Be Giants used to have a number that you could call and it would play a song for you. It was called "Dial-A-Song".

I just got that "call me" thing in the upper right corner and it's like internet voicemail. What i would like is to do that agin, but the other way. I'd like to officially institute the "Dial-And-Sing-Me-A-Song-Just-Without-Dialing-It's-More-Like-A-Click-But-For-Real-Sing-Me-A-Song."

So just click that thing, put in your phone number and the internet calls you and connects you either to my internet voicemail or (drum roll... ) ME!

I'll totally let you sing me a song too tho.

Fraud

I noticed that toriamos.com announced the winner for the Tori Halloween Costume Contest. Here is the winner:
Photobucket
The contest page boasts that Tori would pick the winner her own damn self. Well someone needs to tell her that that pic is of Project Runway star, Chris March
Photobucket
I guess I'm just a little pissed for two reasons:
1. the photo is clearly a fraud (unless it was submitted by Chris March)
2. it doesn't really even look like Tori
3. it's old anyway- that's not from last halloween.

I know that's more than 2, but I feel cheated by this situation. I'm gonna get my sister to dress up as Tori next Halloween and blow the socks off Tori AND her website.

This is not what you think

I am not really posting this to show off my sexxxy legs, but rather to
oen the floor to discussion about where I might have gotten this
bruise. I've gotten mystery bruises like this for as long as I can
remember which means I'm either a clumsy sleepwalker or have repressed the memories of being beaten. In any case, I like to think of stories that might explain the various causes of said bruises.

Maybe I was assaulted by a calf-hight caveman. Possibly hit my leg while... idk.

Anyway- it doesn't hurt much, but damned if I know where it came from

Guess what else

As long as I'm taking stuff off my camera, I have some other things I'm rather proud of. On the 25 February, 2008. I completed a Rubik's cube for the first time in my life.

I took this picture to mark such a momentous occasion. Lame, right?


I'm starting to find much more utilitarian purposes for my digital camera (entitled Picular). For instance I can take a picture of some brownies I made and make my sister jealous. It wouldn've worked if she ever checked her facebook, right?

Glenn Gould

Aside from being my favorite pianist, Glenn Gould is (I guess) an accomplished character actor. lol who knew?

ok

So one of the things I love about my job is that at any given time, someone will hand me a book, score, CD, DVD, or anything else. Just really at any time. The other day, an organist handed me this tiny little book. he said it had the earliest printed "Ein Feste Burg"-- you know Holy Fortress hymn thing. Whatev- after he showed me that page, I found this:


and whole lot of other cool engravings, but when I got to this one I almost lost my lunch:




If you can't make it out, it's a bunch of old dudes castrating a prepubescent boy. yelch. gross.
