Taser, meet iPod. iPod, meet Taser. Isn’t that a natural combination? The concept appears to be that when someone tries to nick your MP3 player, you can shock the idea out of their crack-addled noggin with 50,000 volts. Presumably this particular piece of convergent genius emerged from the same school of thought that maintains America…
Anyone played with Google Analytics? We’re considering using it at work, so I’ve justed the reference to the JavaScript file in the footer. (Took all of 2-3 minutes… Gotta love server-side includes!) Here is a test pdf file to see if Analytics will track PDF files. If you want to grab it, open it, that…

There is a full Eclipse tonight. I’m taking pictures when we go out and uploading them. If the cloud cover stays minimal, we’re supposed to have a great view. Very mild outside too. First picture at approximate 9:10 PM. Taken with a Fujifilm FinePix S9100, shutter speed 1/13, F4.9 (Yup, auto mode.) The entire family…

So any of that stuff…
So… I have a hair appointment tonight. I’m actually getting my hair dyed (matching my current color) to cover some of the grey. Maybe it’s because I have more grey hair than my Mom does? Right now, when I pull my hair back from my face, most of it is grey at the temples. Two…
Ever add new things to your office or cube just to see if people would notice? Or might be brave enough to say something? I do that some times—especially when I’m trying to get to know people. It’s a great way to meet people. And if they think I’m a little weird, well I am….
The house is being shown this Saturday at noon. Which I is good news. The house has never had this much interest. Pretty amazing. I wonder if my real estate agent ran an ad? It’s kinda frustrating when you don’t know what work you should do and what you should not. I know what I…
Here is the feedback my real estate agent just gave me for the people who viewed the house: The people who saw the house last night didn’t understand the floor plan. (Yeah she was kinda scratching her head over that one too.) The people who saw the house on the 5th said that every room…
I got another email from my real estate agent. The house is being shown again today. Cool beans! This is amazing. I don’t think there has ever been this much traffic on the house. Back to work. Had to share. 🙂 Related Images:

From the article: The Scottish government has tackled the thorny issue of cat welfare by issuing a Draft Cat Welfare Code of Practice aimed at providing “basic information and…
And yet another house showing today! Woohoo! My real estate agent also said that the house was shown over the weekend, so that is three showings this weekend. Awesome! Bouncy bouncy! Now if it will just sell… Related Images:
I got an email from my real estate agent. The house is being shown right now. Woohoo! Here’s hoping that the people like it and make an offer… The market has been so slow right now, but that’s okay. I am blessed with family close to where I work so I don’t have to pay…
How is it possible that the biggest software company wants to gobble up one of the larges Internet companies? Last week on Friday, Microsoft made a hostile takeover bid for Yahoo.
