New McBlog Features

Post author By McAdmin
Post date February 20, 2006

Today I wanted to point out new features on McBlog. There are some new ways to stay on top of comments, I thought if I made it easier for everyone to see comments, then people would make more. On the right hand side bar there is a new box that captures the five most recent comments. And now under each post, there is a link that says expand comments, this way you can see if there have been any replies to what you said or just catch up on what’s going on without having to load the comment making page. Hope you enjoy the new features and I hope it will help generate comments from people I know read this but don’t ever comment (Dad, my inlaws, grandparents, etc)

Have a cell phone? You’ll want to read this! Cnet just posted this interesting story ranking the radiation levels of cell phones. Is your cell phone on the list of the nations top 10? How bout the lowest 10? Values range from 1.55 as the highest (Motorola), and .12 from the lowest (Audiovox). Very interesting stuff to think about next time you shove that plastic case next to your head. Check it out here

Beyond Balderdash

In an attempt to get you to post more using the comment link below each post, we will be play a twist of Balderdash with everyone who reads the blog. The game will end sometime late this week, so post early and please, only one answer per person.

The WORD this week is: scrog

Balderdash rules (for those who’ve never played): “The main objective is to make up answers that will bluff other players, as well as for choosing the real and often unbelievable answer.

WORDS- What is the definition?
PEOPLE – What is the person known for?
INITIALS- What do they stand for?
MOVIES- What is this movie about?
DATES- What happend on this day?”

Video game party

Post author By McAdmin
Post date February 19, 2006

To whom it may concern: my latest bright idea is to have a pyramid sceme like party that involves me having alot of people over to play video games and whilst this is going on a local representative of the video game industry will try to force all who attend to purchase one or more of his overpriced games untill he meets a preset quota where he will begin to earn some money for his meager exsitence. I feel this sort of atmosphere is conducive to an excellent party if all my friends show up and buy something then I will earn a free game(probably sonic the hedgehog or mario).

Get for V-Day?

Post author By McAdmin
Post date February 15, 2006

What a great V-day! I have to tell everyone I have a great wife. I only gave Joy a spanking clean kitchen, and a full body massage. She gave me, a BLT sandwich, a pedicure, and a full game of me vs. her in TANKS. Wow it was amazing! We had such a fun time playing this stupid game from the 70’s that Yancy had posted on his site. So in honor of V-day, I’m posting on here as well. I told Joy that since we had so much fun yesterday we’ll have to celebrate D-day too.

Joy got a phone call this morning telling her that her glucose levels were normal. Which means she does not have gestational diabetes, you can spell that however you want, I did. So we are happy and you can be too.

Good to know

There is a fascinating site started by the guy who does Americas Most Wanted… it’s called familywatchdog.us. I got an email from Grandpa that talked about it but didn’t click on it, so today in interest I clicked on it and entered our address. To Joy’s shock and terror there is a sex offender within 100 ft of our house; across the street in the ghetto six plex. Somewhat disturbing but very good information to have, I highly reccomend putting your address in and checking it out. Plus the site doesn’t ask for your email or anything so there is no junk attached, just good info on your neighbors. The site gives a picture, name, address for each offender to help educate you on who to be cautious about. I was surprised how many were in southern Provo, and to compare, how few are around my parents house in NC. I found it very interesting, hope you do too.
