me: hey who do I ask this question of? Is it this guy?
other guy: yeah probably, but good luck getting anything useful out of that guy, he’s about as sharp as a sack of wet mice.

Now that’s comedy folks. Other guy eventually admitted that it was a foghorn leghorn line, but not until I’d stopped laughing.

Beer magnified 10,000x under a microscope looks like something I’ve seen after about 14 beers or a microdot. I know this because I’ve scoped out the Molecular Expressions site, particularly their beer section.

The landlords, after three years of prodding, finally agreed to do some work on the house. We got a host of improvements – new windows, they fixed the garage door and roof, replaced the house’s doors, fixed a number of things in the bathroom including the floor, and more. They also installed a smoke C02 emission detector. Almost every room now has a smoke detector in it and it’s a centralized system so that if one detector gets a whiff of smoke, they all start beeping. And this is no petite beeping either, this is make your ear hurt beeping, this is make the dog howl beeping, this is beeping that your deaf grandmother would hold her ears to hide from beeping. How do I know this?…….

I’m cruising through memepool and burst into laughter when I see:

It’s time to brush up on your knowledge of ass meats of the world.

If you’re one of those people that thinks they need to know everything, well, I bet you don’t.(though now maybe you can)

Ran across glutinous in something I was reading today and I realized that for no particular reason I can discern, the word amuses me. Immensely. Sigh….my siblings are going to end up having to have me comitted 😉

….and I cheer. So sayeth a wit on metafilter:

I don’t give a rat’s ass whether people choose to believe that the earth is 20 minutes old and *GOD* created everything pretty much as is/was, but to deny observable phenomena simply because the only book you can read hasn’t been updated in a thousand years is silly.

Here here! I got such an earful about god and the good book while I was in colorado, it was enough to turn my stomach. Or make me more appreciative of posts like the one above anyway.

So, like over a month ago (look for the google heading, halfway down the page) I observed that you could use google as a sort of backup system for your site by inserting a bizarre combination of words into your content. Someone else has noticed the same thing, only they’ve taken a slightly different angle. And managed to get linked all over hell and high water as a result. Just goes to show, it’s all in the interpretation and presentation, observation alone isn’t worth the pixels it’s recorded on 😉

Turn a jpg into asci art, automagically!. It’s very cool and an excellent hack.

It started snowing midafternoon today. One of my coworkers who has a 2 hour commute mentioned how much he disliked having to drive in the snow. I told him I didn’t mind it that much. So of course on the car ride home I almost splat myself broadsides into a Taurus.

It was snowing pretty hard when I left the office so I decided to take Route 1 instead of the highway because the roads were so bad and the highway turns into a turtle race in those conditions. As I came over the crest of a hill I noticed a car coming towards me flashing his lights. At first I thought….

Today’s laugh, courtesy of the usually amusing metafilter:

thou chickenfucker!
Luckily, that chicken hath
teat, not testicle.

If twas the reverse?
Punishment would be meted
severely, farmboy.
