I don’t know, do you 010

Twitter / John Pozadzides:
Why is abbreviation such a long word?”

When Windows is abbreviated, the e-mail ‘Win 7 Drivers for HP 2600’ becomes much less fun than it sounds. I had assumed that I now had a prize to claim, so that internal message was indeed peculiar.
Study: Your intellect is what you eat
“Maybe if Michelle Obama’s healthy eating intitative—now celebrating its first anniversary—is really to catch on with the American public, it should rebrand ‘junk food’ as ‘dumb food.’ A new study from a research team at Britain’s University of Bristol correlates IQ performance to the quality of ...”
At Denton’s house last night, I created a new mix CD using iTunes on my Dell while we were watching Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. In the following review, an observation may be altered to reveal a personal truth, “Christopher’s priority seems to center on doing Ottawa University like things rather than writing the paper.”
No Case Too Small: Heroman « Reverse Thieves
Heroman wasn’t exactly a great show, but when Holly’s love of being a detective comes to the surface in a later episode, I had to laugh. When livestock and eventually people start disappearing the case has everyone baffled. Then when Professor Denton goes off to look for something he winds up missing...”
To my dismay, as well as the dismay of my sister Kimberly, I left my new mix CD at home this morning. This is not quite as promotional as 98.1 KUDL for Taylor Swift, whose song from the advertisement still rattles in my mind.
How to decide whether to go to work | ITworld
“IT job satisfaction is low, stress is high, but nothing good is on TV.”
Fortunately, someone commented ‘going to Wichita’ in response to John’s posting a link to the Roving Imp Tiny Group Festival; this reminded me of a song by The White Stripes.
The Best Of Hipster Little Mermaid
“The Best Of Hipster Little Mermaid: The Hipster Ariel Meme has been floating around Tumblr recently. It’s like if Disney traded singing animals and magic for ‘underground music’ and PBR. You have The Little Mermaid remastered on DVD? I still have it on VHS...Meme Generator”
Matthew Moore is the best hipster that I personally know. The description causes me to wonder; how does PBR Bull Riding relate to Disney?
The Largest Organisms Ever - Road Tickle
“The world is full of creatures, both big and small, and when we think of the largest creatures on the planet, we typically think of elephants, whales and huge...”
Hey, Jimmy John’s is located next to the H&R Block in the City of Mission, KS!
Carbon tax on carnivores - Holy Kaw!
“Many people think with either their wallets or their stomachs. Taking advantage of that can be used to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A tax on meat and milk would likely mean we’d buy less of the foods that contribute to climate change.”
Ooh, déjà vu feels present; that will work, yeah right.
BBC - Richard Black’s Earth Watch: UN sticks with climate agenda - but what prospects?
“Reports suggesting that UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is retiring from the climate change agenda have had commentators wondering a) what it means for prospects of a new global climate agreement...”
Of course, the Democratic Party also lives in fantasy.
Incredible Fantasy Images - Dumage
“These fantastic images were done by Andy Park - concept artist / illustrator. Enjoy his incredible artwork.”
Whitney Beiler is correct; this is a lame waste of tax dollars.
Obama Calls for $53 Million for High Speed Rail - US News and World Report
“The president plans to include the funding in his 2012 budget.”
The sly Hannah Mott once mentioned something like this:
Err, Call Me: Vumber Gives You Throw-Away Phone Numbers For Dating, Work
“By now you’ve probably heard of Google Voice, a service that lets you take one phone number and configure it to ring all of your phones — work, mobile, home, whatever — with plenty of settings to manage your inbound and outbound calls. But what if you wanted the opposite: a service that lets you spa...”
At QuikTrip I bought ice, and my Chevy Cavalier posted 24.737 miles per gallon or 9.474 liters per 100 kilometers.
