Too funny

Just when you'd wish you brought a hammer with you, someone comes up with a generic solution. Scott Adams, what haven't you taught us?

A bit sad...

I was in staples yesterday and had a bit of a sad moment. I was checking out the games in the bargin bin and my computer can't even run those. *sigh* Ah well. I'll have to wait for the Wii.

Update: checking out what titles are launching with the Wii, Rayman Raving Rabbids (with screen shots 1, 2, 3) looks sooo funny and Red Steel looks like fun for a shooter. Either way they all look really pretty and a huge upgrade from my current game console.

Google Map Pedometer

A friend pointed me to the gmap pedometer which is a tool that uses google maps. It's not actually made by google, but it's pretty cool. You can save your routes, like our running route. Some of the lines are a bit rough in that map because I was having troubles with the app (it wouldn't make another way point) and I got frustrated. Ah well. It's pretty cool over all. Later I'll figure out how long our biking route is. ;-)

Cube Farm was never meant to be

Something was pointed out to me: the guy who invented cubicles never meant for them to used as they are. No matter how good the intentions are, an invention can always be changed to fit someone else's needs. Usually bean counters, monopolies or governments. Ah well. ;-)

Ahh, comics

Gotta love comics about "work".

QotD - I love work

I really like this one:
I love work. It fascinates me. I could watch it all day.

Agents of hate and terror

Does anyone else think that Harper is sounding more and more like Bush every day espically when he says sound bites like "agents of hate and terror"?

*sigh* Let's just hope that we don't go that way too. :-(
