Why are all apartment trash chutes designed with an opening the size of a pack of cigarettes and a 40# return spring, forcing you to wedge your body between the filth covered sharp metal door and the filth covered cigarette pack-sized opening while you cram your bag down the tiny hole?
I noticed how cheap laptop ram has gotten and decided to order an upgrade. I picked up 2GB from NewEgg.com for $45 shipped, stuck it in and fired it back up. Much faster load time for sure. Definately a worthy upgrade.
Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.
I can’t think of a better eternal (irony intended) representative than Einstein.

Local man nearly drowns while chasing baseballUpdated: May 12, 2008 09:36 PM
A Mid-South man’s love for baseball recently nearly cost him his life.? Anthony Cardona stopped breathing for more than two minutes after running into trouble while trying to retreive a special ball.
Cardona got into trouble on May 4th, when his nephew walked up to the plat and hit a home run.? The ball went into a nearby pond.? Cardona wanted to fish the ball out and keep it as a souvenier.
There’s was just one problem: Cardona can’t swim.? He quickly went under, in serious danger of drowing.
“He was solid gray, with no life in him, period,” coach Michael Sharp said.? “In my opinion, he was dead.”
Sharpt and Robert Necaise were coaching the team Cardona’s newphew was playing on, but left the dugout to help administer CPR on him.? Meanwhile, the players looked on.
“It shook them up a bit,” Necaise said.? “We’re trying to teach them life.? Be prepared for everything that comes your way.”
Medics quickly arrived to stabalize Cardona, who is currently recovering at a hospital in Southaven.
“He’s a very strong person,” Heather Cardona said. “I know he’s a fighter.”
Beyond the hits and runs, wins and losses, the coaches said the incident seemed to teach their players another lesson- help your fellow man in need.? It was a lesson the players witnessed first-hand.
Are you kidding? This retard, presumably aware of his inability to swim, jumped into a pond…for a baseball? For a baseball from a Church League game? I mean, I understand the sentiment, it would have been cool for his nephew, but is it really worth risking your life over? Seriously? And why did they revive him? Do we need people like this procreating?
I deserve a beer for writing this.I hope to jebus I can find a link to this vid, looking now…
I deserve a beer for writing this.The sign said they were open until 9pm, but I got there at 8:50 to see a locked door, all the signs out, and the “cage” closed across the front of the business. I think it’s gay that there’s not a 24 hour store downtown, but at least stay open until your posted hours of operation have passed.
I deserve a beer for writing this.The weather sucked ass and I pulled a muscle in my neck or something so I stayed in and caught up on sleep. I also slept most of today thanks to a percocet for afore-mentioned pulled muscle. I did nerd stuff tonight (Sunday night for people on a normal schedule), installing software and tweaking settings on my computer, also ordered 2GB of ram for my lappy, so it should run a lot faster now.
Tomorrow I plan on going to Hoop’s for a few beers after work, mainly to harrass Tony, and making it home (relatively) early. I’m going to try to take it easy this week in preperation for BBQ fest next weekend.
I deserve a beer for writing this.I’m going to drown a puppy. I don’t care who is endorsed by Obama. I don’t care who had an SUV that was paid for by the office. I particularely don’t care about anything that happens in Mississippi. Stop it. It’s enough.
I deserve a beer for writing this.
