MY brother is a level 19 Blood Elf on World of Warcraft. If you have any questions for him, like how to melt rubber or get your ears to be perky, please email him.

PS there are two more new videos on McVideos

What’s a bump key you ask? Some would call it a skeleton key… check out this news video of how easily someone could bump into your house!!!

Think about that next time you hear the office theme song. (or other favorite ringtone) A study done by some people somewhere said that a cell phone is the dirtiest thing in your house, even the bottom of your shoe!

Petry Dish Proof!

Why can’t I own Ebay? Then I wouldn’t be so mad when they increase the insertion fee by five cents, and the final value fee by .5%!!! Oh Pace, what’s five cents? Well, .05 x 500,000 users is $25,000. Which is probably how many listing are posted each day, so I would say a five cent increase would be about $750,000 big ones a month… just in increases… does that make anyone else angry!? In an email to Ebay members, Bill Cobb (ebay owner) says:

“These adjustments are the result of careful analysis and we believe they’re the right thing to do to keep the marketplace strong for our eBay.com and eBay Motors sellers.”

Well duh! Any increase multiplied by the millions of users you have is the right thing to make your financial power stronger!!

Well… you have until Jan 30th to list without the extra fees, as for me… I’m well beyond starting to not like Ebay. Anyone got any Ebay alternatives out there?

I saw this commercial and loved it, showed it to Joy and she wanted me to post it; So here it is. What do you think?

I sent my ATI Radeon X800 XL back last week to get fixed, they overnighted it to me knowing how important these things are, but the stupid FedeX guy only knocked softly, so I come home waiting for the FedEx guy and there on the door is one of those things that says sorry I missed you, I just wanted to tick you off and make you wait another day. If you would like to pick up your package it is available at 6:15pm at this location which closes at 6pm so please call ahead to find that out. ARG So tom, hopefully the new/fixed graphics card will be placed back into this wonderful computer. Not a moment too soon.

Why were homes ever created with gas appliances? I hate gas. Last night our heater’s pilot light went out at 2am after Chase had been up and down. I had to go downstairs in the freezing cold and re-light the stupid thing that keeps going out. It’s SO stupid why not have an electric thing that lights everytime it needs to like a spark plug. Sheesh STUPID!

I found GreenMyApple.com today and I thought it was awesome; Mainly the Apple spoof ad with “my brother from another mother”. After chuckling and then clicking on a few links including the “Tell Steve” link, I got to thinking, hey they are right! Computer makers should take responsibility for the materials used to make their product. I also found the campaign history very interesting, larger companies such as Dell, Sony, LG, and Samsung have all committed to getting rid of hazardous waste materials, while Apple only takes the Greenpeace guys out to dinner.

Hey Jobs, I’m not buying a mac till they are more green!

I just had a thought as I was washing my face before “retiring” for the night (well, at least until Chase wakes up again, anyway). But my thought was about facewash and other soaps. Pace and I just use hand soap to wash our faces. We use dish soap to wash our hands when in the kitchen. I use hair conditioner to shave my legs. Are these foreign concepts, I wonder? I mean, if nothing else, I’ll just have softer, shinier leg hairs as they grow back, right? 😉 I think that Pace and I partly do all this to save money, but also because I despise having too much stuff all over the place and just choose to simplify. So back to the facewash thing, is facewash really necessary for a semi-clean face, or is it just another money-sucking scheme? I had some acne as a teenager, and none of the facewashes seemed to do a thing. Now, even though I just use plain old hand soap to clean my face, I rarely get zits (probably more due my current hormones, but that’s another story for another day). Besides, facewash containers always claim to be miracle-workers, saying that they clean “deep down to the pores” and I don’t know about everyone else, but my pores are just right there on my facial surface, not deep down anywhere. When I was in Costa Rica, I wanted to buy some facewash, and went to two different stores just to see many store clerks’ confused faces as I asked about it and proceeded to explain what it was exactly. They would always just eventually direct me to the body wash… I felt somewhat panicked at the time, and I think I later found some kind of cleansing face lotion or something weird like that… But it made me think, why do we use facewash? And why don’t we just use one soap for everything, or at least one kitchen soap and one bathroom soap, rather than having dish soap, hand soap, facewash, body wash, body soap, shampoo, leg shaving gel….. etc etc etc?

I wanted to let ya’ll know what the deal was with the champion belt in the right column at the bottom. It’s the official ‘Fight Night 3 ‘ on Xbox360 champion belt. It will stay on display on this blog until I am dethroned as the Champ. If someone beats me I will give them the belt. My current record is an amazing 2-1 against Darin. This earned me braggin rights (which I WILL use Darin) and the Championship belt. THANK YOU.

PS check out this fun game. Is it fun enough to be added to the Other stuff links?
