Since when is it possible to have two screename online at the once? I’ve always remembered it saying “you have signed on at a different location”. Not sure why AOL made this change, but I’m not complaining. Makes working with bots so much easier, because you can have multiple instances without having them sign each [...]

In an act to postpone finishing a draft of my paper, I began to change the font on the parts I had already written. Since the past 2-3 years, for the most part I’ve been writing my papers in Times or Georgia pt 12 depending on how long I need to make it. But today, [...]

Reality television has taught us how little some celebrities know. Yes, there is someone out there who has never heard of Wal-Mart. “What is Wal-Mart [...] It’s, like, they sell wall stuff?”. Paris Hilton is talking about the same world’s leading retailer that is down the street. I can only fathom the other morsels of [...]

In the process of doing my 20 page research paper/final for English (grr), I’ve stumbled upon a fantastic resource for research. No its not Google. Several different search engines act as an easy way to search multiple search engines (meaning that when you search on them, they actually search other search engines and return data). [...]

A county official has asked computer and video equipment vendors to consider eliminating the terms “master” and “slave” from equipment because they may be considered offensive. It’s nice to know that our tax paid officials are spending their time trying to accomplish noble deeds such as the abolition of the inequality present on my CD-ROM [...]

I recently bought a gizmo for my car called the “VWCDPIC”. It’s a small little chip which allows me to connect any RCA input directly into my car’s audio system without the use of a tape adapter. Before I bought this, I was using one of those tape adapters and none of my music sounded [...]

I’ve been thinking about selling my Nikon 5700 and buying something more advanced. I’m definitely very satisfied with the camera and would recommend it to a “prosumer”; plus it’s also become relatively cheaper from when I bought mine exactly a year ago. Even though the Nikon 5700 has a bunch of manual aperture and shutter [...]

Come on, dude, I know you. There is no way you sat through “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” on an airplane. Between the hissing headphones, the small screen and that tall guy in front of you there are far too many obstacles for you to have struggled through for a movie so [...]

“Howdy mate, I’m going to be around town for a while. I’ll see you around”, says Mick as he shakes the hand of a bewildered passenger who is waiting for a light in New York downtown. Mick, in the 1986 motion picture, “Crocodile Dundee” comes from a small Australian town which has a small well [...]

I haven’t played Counter-Strike in a while, but it came highly recommended from one of my more critical friends so I decided to check it out and all I can say is that it pretty impressive. Other then the game, Valve has efficiently created a content delivery system that doesn’t impede with the game. One [...]

I was hesitant to go see it, but after being “forced” to see it I have to write about it. Pirates of the Caribbean is an excellent 2.5 hours of pure escapism. Great sets, fun characters, and a pretty entertaining story. And of course, Kiera Knightly adds a lot visually to the movie. Another great [...]

I went this evening down to Tustin to drop of one of my mom’s friends at their business there. In the parking lot I saw a GTI 1.8T which looked different from outside so I stopped to look inside to see if the owner had made any changes to the interior. Less then a minute [...]

I was helping my brother with math yesterday and while looking his book, I found that I had trouble understanding the wording of their explanations even after passing multi-var calc. I clearly remember when I was actually taking the same class and every single one of my other math classes that I had trouble understanding [...]

This is pretty low quality and easy to make set of scripts, but nevertheless http://remind.askthefool.com is online and working. Basically its just a reminder system that sends you emails the day before something is happening. Try it out.

I finally got it. I’m loving it and I’ve already got 300 miles put on it. Six speed manual, 18″ rims, recardo seats, monsoon 8-speaker stereo, 180 HP, 173-torque and does 0-60 in 5.8 I’m driving up to Berkeley for the weekend to spend time with Shay, Neil, some of my other friends and also [...]
