  • Last Night’s Dream

    I remember two dreams. Both involved Tommy. One was about camping. But this post is about the other one.

    We are in a car. I am in the back seat against the door on the passenger side. Cathy is sharing the seat with me just to my left. Some girl is in the middle but it is kind of like an opening to another row of seats so perhaps she is in the back-back and leaning forward to the middle row of seats; she is holding an unlit joint between her thumb and index finger but mostly concealing it in her hand. Then a shadow of a person is in the other middle seat on the driver’s side. Tommy is driving. A police officer pulls him over. We all sit there stunned. We make no attempt to get the girl to conceal her illegal substance as the officer approaches the car and makes eye contact with her. He comes to my side of the car and takes the joint from her, makes a comment and hands it to me. As he walks away Cathy points out that the police officer is going to arrest me so I eat it.

    Now I ask you, what the hell was Tommy doing driving?!

    I tried to find a source for attribution but this picture is pretty much in the public domain now. It’s everywhere!

  • Pornstar Service Announcement

    Why yes! It is safe for work! Barry says its not safe for work. She never reveals anything! And her one wordy dird is bleeped.

    I love the last thing she says.

  • What’s the right way to attribute a source?

    I am loving this discussion. Bloggers, programmers, and geeks need to jump over and join in the fun!

    Update: I wonder how many people are linking to Michael’s post. Jail Lail has linked to it. He even twittered it. Music City Bloggers have it covered. Has the NYT actually linked to it yet? If so, how did they attribute their story?

  • Hit from behind

    We were on Lyons View Rd, where the wealthy houses are, and a garden truck backs into the road with the aid of a home owner motioning to stop traffic. I’m not going to drive through that large truck nor race around the back of it so I slow to a stop only to heard the dreaded squeal of tires. Some college girl decides she wants to park in the back of our van instead of the parking garage at the mall where she was heading. So much for the joyously good mood I was in. When I heard the tires I released the brake and accelerated a little so the impact was minor. I’m sure we will be sore and I am worried about the children but we turned down the ambulance and have decided not to see the doctors. The bumper hangs a little lower on the back right corner but it is almost unnoticeable. I heard the squeal. I just couldn’t find her in the rear view mirror. Something was wrong. I should have been able to see this coming and move out of the way!

    She couldn't stopDamage not really noticableHe backs into her doorThe Benz made this dent in her car

    We pulled into the Cherokee Bigotry Club because state law says if no one is hurt we clear the scene. Their big parking lot made sense. I point at some damage on her car and she says, "that’s from a different one." While waiting for the police to show up, a Mercedes Benz backs into the driver’s door of the college girl. That’s when I started looking for the cameras because surely this was a joke! After waiting a bit, the old guy in the Benz who owns a construction company doing work at the country club lectured us about being on private property and drove off. I took a moment to give him a few lecturing words of my own before he drove away.

    Dammit. Now I have to spend the next 5 years berating myself and trying to figure out what I could have done differently to prevent this!

    Update: I should add that when I called non-emergency I got no answer so I had to use 911 which the automated system put me on hold.

    Update: Body shop said the bumper did its job and there is no damage to repair.

  • Moan your IP address

    Yesterday I mentioned a service that geographically tries to put your location on a map based on your IP address. An IP address uniquely identifies you (in some cases your network) on the Internet. If you are using a cable company or phone company for your Internet service, your IP address may periodically change. For privacy purposes or other reason you may want to know what the current address representing you.

    As a side note, often the public IP address is simply that of the modem at your house. If you have a network behind that modem (which would be connected to the modem by a router), then the world will see all computers in your house as having the same IP address. Technically, the world thinks you have only one computer.

    When I wanted to know my ip, I used to jump over to http://www.whatismyip.com/. But never again! From now on, I want a sexy girl to moan my ip! When you go to http://www.moanmyip.com/ your speakers need to be on. Although the voice might get you some looks, the site should be considered worksafe. If you are concerned, http://www.hearmyip.com/ is absolutely worksafe.

    Make sure your toolkit of bookmarks includes http://www.dnsstuff.com/ and http://dnsreport.com/.

    Gimme Joe!

    Coffee cup choices are important. The cup has to match the mood or the productivity mode. The wrong cup can put you out of sync and make programming or creative thought more difficult. Cups inspire. Cups bring memories. Sidebar: Why "Cup of Joe&quot? (Powell) Today this cup is helping me. Thanks to Ozone Ferd.


  • Procrastinate and Pay

    I knew the forecast. Odds were rain would come last night and I still had the driveway covered with stuff from the garage. Mother Nature had been kind to me and gave sunshine so I could get caught up on work. Throughout the day I would go to the driveway and pull in an item or two. I should have taken 20 minutes and gotten it all in. Last night, Mother Nature watered the remaining stuff. Doesn’t look like anything is damaged terribly. Will let the sun dry things today and throw away anything that took significant damage.
