..and I thought I was good!

Last night, on Rock Band, my vocals on the song Wonderwall got a 99%... And Jay-Z steals my thunder once again...



Thank you, videogum

I want an iPhone so bad...

There is nothing funny or exciting about this post, so people who enjoy funny/exciting things, you may want to check out PowerThirst. (Thanks, Russ!)

Anyway, you know what really grinds my gears? I want an iPhone... I want an iPhone bad. I'm the type of person who should have an iPhone... But I can't, until they improve the shitty calendar application. I use my Treo datebook for everything, from scheduling important appointments to reminding myself that I want to write this blog entry. And until there is a better calendar, I can't take the iPhone plunge... And that breaks my nerdy consumer heart.

I came across a Youtube from an iPhone user who shares my views exactly. The fact that he feels passionately enough to post a video about it indicates that he and I should become best friends.

Bird is the Word

Hi. You might have noticed I haven't been blogging lately. But, do you know why I haven't been blogging lately???

The NBA playoffs - duh!! But the playoffs are over, so I'm back, and we have so much to talk about.

While I was watching the playoffs, I spotted Larry Bird in the crowd, and it gave me an idea. So without further ado, my top 10 favorite photos of Larry Bird (in no particular order):

And while we're on the subject of basketball, did you read the news about Shaq? It's a 2-parter.

a) Video: Shaq raps about his vasectomy and his divorce, taunts Kobe Bryant for not winning a championship, uses the N-bomb, and asks Kobe Bryant how his ass tastes

b) Shaq loses his job as Maricopa County Special Deputy. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio has asked him to turn in his badge.



I don't get it... They look so happy here:

Cupping

"Cupping" is a method of applying acupressure by creating a vacuum next to the patient's skin.

It feels good, and makes you look like aliens are sending out secret messages on your back.

A thought on dyslexia..

Why did scientists choose such a difficult name for dyslexia??? You would think they could have gone with something easier to spell/pronounce.

Follow-up: Of course, we all know that the word dyslexia comes from the Greek words δυσ- dys- ("impaired") and λέξις lexis ("word").
