A juggling technophile shares personal stories, challenges, humor and perhaps some political commentary.
Ramblings, often stream of conscious, journaling the events of my life.
On a side note, I’m having awfully good memories of visiting Great-grandmother’s house.
Update: About 5 hours later the house doesn’t stink any longer.
Good information on Bellsouth’s Privacy Director I love the service but for about 2 months now I’ve had a recorded message trying to get me to talk to someone. Their poor system thinks someone is answering the phone but Privacy Director cuts them off before the recording identifies itself. No human ever calls. It’s laughable but they call everyday.
Privacy Director gives a recorded messages to callers that are anonymous asking that the caller identify themselves (much like you would with a collect call). The phone rings at the house and after listening to the brief recording I have 3 options: take the call, reject sales call (gives the caller a no solicitation message), or reject the call. It drastically cut down on phone solicitations!

Of course, this post messed that up. Numbers are so cool.
Kim at Bacon and Eh’s points out The Prejudice Map summing up how people of the world are viewed. For example, this one is either for the United States or perhaps only New Mexico:
strength
dislike of walking
geniality and hospitality
guarding their rights
anti-Muslim politics
Amy toots her own horn 3.56MB avi – if I knew how to compress movies I would (I recommend you have your sound on for this one)
My wife enjoyed my Habits Meme so much that she’s asked for more.
Pocket Rules:
horizontally on the edge of the nickle; and finally the remaining quarter horizontally on the dime. (click picture to enlarge)There. Ammunition for my wife to decry OCD.
I wish I could have had a video camera! Molly was resting on the floor and the Roomba whirs over and bounces off her nose. She doesn’t flinch! Since her long nose is obviously new territory for the Roomba, it immediately kicks into “outline the perimeter mode” where it moves a little bit then rotates back into the barrier and repeats over and over. So here’s poor Molly trying to get a nap and this robot is noisily tracing her snout!
After about the 5th bump she nonchalantly raised her head and let it pass. If you have pets and are concerned your pet and Roomba won’t be friends, I’d put your fears to rest.
Guess I haven’t cleaned up my act as much as I thought had. Lessons from Amy.
Amy (3): “I went to Texas this morning.” (note: It’s 7:42am and she is sitting in our house in Knoxville, TN)
I got a screw! And now the front of the dishwasher is back on.
My first post ever was January 5, 2004 so after Blogger deleted my account I took a month off and find it ironic that on January 5, 2006 I started the process of relaunching a new blog. I’ve been very impressed with the variety of things Kristy has done with her blog which made the decision to go with WordPress. I’m further impressed with the simplicity of the WordPress installation and on top of that it has an import function to get your posts and drafts from Blogger into WordPress! It’s a shame I didn’t discover that long before losing all my drafts to Blogger’s indiscretions.
Happy New Year! I expect greatness for 2006!
Looks like Mayte Michelle Rodriguez will have something more to draw on for her character’s anger. She and Cynthia Watros (“Libby”), both of "Lost" fame, were each pulled over for DUI‘s 15 minutes apart from one another.
Both failed field sobriety tests and were released Thursday on $500 bail each…
Motorists arrested for operating a vehicle under the influence of an intoxicant automatically have their driver’s licenses revoked. They are given a temporary license that allows them to drive, but under several restrictions.
Congratulations ladies! Sex is obsolete.
University of Pennsylvania managed to grow mouse "spermatagonial stem cells" in a dish
That’s the stuff that becomes sperm. And the neat thing is they’ve learned how to alter the genes such that the alterations are passed from generation to generation. In other words now that men aren’t necessary (and they really haven’t been since the invention of the massager), you can guarantee that all offspring are female!
On a side note, treatment for hysteria was first recommended in 1653.

Which of course could be a good complement to your Hizamakura lap pillow. 
Unless you are a woman, then you have your boyfriend pillow.
