It’s Handy Being A Guy

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

I give the guy in this article a lot of credit. He took the concept of buckling down to reduce his debt to the max and somehow made it work. I especially liked his statement about the male advantage. Read the article and you will know what he is talking about.

Seven Steps

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

Having worked in tech support and customer service positions for many years, I see articles like this one all the time. There are a few things that set this one apart though.  First is that this is being written by someone who runs a small software company.  When was the last time you called a [...]

Those Lucky Numbers

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

You would think that with all the paranoia surrounding identity theft that the issues with Social Security Numbers would not be an issue at all.  This article illustrates that the issue is still at the forefront.  Interesting to note the statement from the Social Security administration about the use of SSN’s and their purpose.  As [...]

Robomower

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

Here is a great weekend project for creating your own remote controlled lawnmower.  If you want to see it in action, here is a link to the YouTube video for it.  If you have a really large lawn, I could see this being worth some effort.  It would be great to sit on the porch [...]

Have Dollar, Will Power

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

Well I knew something like this would come about eventually.  It appears that despite all the frustrations that air travelers have to deal with, they now have to pay to use electricity while waiting so they can use laptops and such.  Apparently someone else didn’t like that either since they created something called the Air [...]

I would be leery of anyone offering to play this game on the street.  Someone actually guessed correctly too!

Three Way Chinese Take Out

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

See if you can keep a straight face the next time you call in a Chinese take out order after listening to this prank.  I think someone could create and maintain a site that specializes in this type of prank and apply it to other stuff like pizza orders, taxi cabs, collection agencies, etc.  Sounds [...]

Clutter No More

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

When we setup computer desks or anything with tech items, we don’t usually take the time to route wiring and such.  I found a page called Declutter Your Desk that tackles this issue head on.  It may not be the most elegant solution, but he sure did a nice job with it.  Most importantly, he [...]

Gooey Bathtime Fun!

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

Check this page out for a product that is sure to be a blast when taking a bath!   For those who are old enough to remember, it kind of reminds me of this classic horror movie.  I wonder if people come out of the tub with the color of it all over them or [...]

No Green Card? No Problem!

Published by N/A under Random Thoughts

I always knew corporate America would find a way to undermine my citizenship status in this country. Apparently they have decided in their wonderful wisdom (or lack thereof) to grant illegal immigrants in this country the right to have a charge card even without having social security numbers. Read about it here. I wasn’t aware [...]
