Couple of Bad Beats

June 29th, 2010

Went to the grocery store yesterday and they were sold out of Ora Ida tater tots.  Dagger. Took my dog for a walk today and he ended up rolling around in some poo.  And I’m pretty sure it wasn’t dog poo.  Bum poo.  Absolutely disgusting, considering that I had to bathe him afterwards.  A dung [...]

Virus Infected Computer Modified Hosts File

June 28th, 2010

Had a trojan/virus infect my laptop over the weekend.  Every time I did a search via Bing/Yahoo/Google, it would redirect my results to some weird website.  I used all different browsers (safari, chrome, opera, firefox, IE) and the problem was the same.  I was thinking that there was a proxy or something, but if there [...]

Flexi Leash – Almost a Bad Accident

June 24th, 2010

Damn, had a scare with my dog this afternoon.  After getting done with a walk, I went back into my condo and onto the elevator.  I normally just push my floor and then the “door close” button.  My dog normally follows me into the elevator, but this time he got distracted and stayed outside.  Since [...]

Was driving home the other day and saw this on someone’s car: Here’s a closer look: Dude had some Spy Hunter rims.  I’m not even sure if these things are legal, but they were definitely sticking out a bunch of inches from his car.  What a show.

Stock Market Update

June 14th, 2010

$140 Flash Light

June 9th, 2010

I was at Home Depot the other day buying some tools.  I went over to the flash light section to look for one of those cheap LED flash lights and I came across this Fenix flash light.  The stupid thing was selling for over $60.  I was like WTF?  A flash light that cost $60?  [...]

Sick WSOP Bracelet Bets

June 9th, 2010
