I'm blind now! Left my glasses on the sofa last night and the dog slept on my Flexon
TM frame glasses and managed to break them into two pieces. I thought they were supposed to be indestructible. This sucks! Now I'm going to have to wear my dorky emergency glasses if I want to drive. They're old and not quite the right prescription, so they make me feel just a little altered. As it is, I've felt strange all day without being able to see anything at a distance (I couldn't find my emergency glasses until a little while ago). Curious thing... no one noticed at work that I wasn't wearing glasses -- and I even gave a short presentation to the company. I had to have Carl drive me to the office -- and I'm not used to being a passenger... "I'm a driver... I'm a winner... Things are gonna get better... I can feel it."
FECInfo Home PageThis is where the going gets interesting. The above link is to the Federal Exchange Commission. You can look up political campaign contributions based on name or zip code. Did you know that there is someone in my neighborhood that contributed more than $50k to various Republicans and Republican PACs? That's interesting. And it's the most in the area. He did it under the guise of his name, his wife's name, and his business name. And you can find out all that stuff, along with his address, on this site. They did say this was Public Information, no? Bet they wouldn't be happy if they knew that I knew this and anyone in the world could know it with a couple of mouse clicks. Kewl!
ANIMAL DEFENSE MILITIA - chickenhead.comOK. You know I search long and hard for anyone who's actually paying attention to my site picks. This one's a winner. The ADM (no relation to the Archer Daniels Midland Corp., I assure you) features spoof (I hope) headlines such as: "Nazi Human Child Invades Saint Bernard's Personal Space!" and "Chickens Traumatized by Mass Egg Abuductions." Nothing but the best for you guys. This is a 100% Pansy-Free Site is from "an underground movement of covert operatives committed to preserving the autonomy and merriment of non-human vertebrates through any means necessary."
I can't believe how truly bored people must be if they spend the necessary time to create such spoof sites. Maybe they are living lives that have no danger in them. Who's got the time to do this? Still, ya gotta love it!
FuckedCompany.com - The Dot-com Deadpool
FuckedCompany.com is a game based on the classic deadpool, but instead of betting for (or against) people, you're betting on companies. The lines are a little blurred when dealing with companies because there is rarely a clean-cut death. To make up for this, FuckedCompany.com rates different levels of a company's demise and awards points based on the level of severity.
Well, I've been seriously sick since at least Saturday, and I guess I was getting sick before even then. That's why I haven't been keeping up this log... I've been curled up under my covers sniffling. This is the first I've been at the keyboard in a long time. Man, they're going to be irate at work when they find out I'm *not* a machine, and if I am, even machines go down and need repair every once in a while.
Internet News Sites Crushed by Election Traffic
As the world waited on Wednesday for the state of Florida to count the final votes, many big Internet news sites failed to stand up to the crush of visitors, sometimes even posting tallies that were close to a day old.
Guess it goes to show you that instantaneous magic doesn't happen (even on the web) if there is no way to get data / info to the pages.
