This is one of the homestar-esque flash-animated recurring cartoon series out there. It takes a couple episodes to get into it, but it is pretty entertaining. The series started back in 2003, so it takes a while to catch up on the whole thing, unlike Amy’s Diary. However, if you’re kinda bored, it’s definitely worth looking into.
Check it out.
A song called “I love this bar.” That’s why. I really was almost ready to give it a shot again. Then I borrowed my cousin’s car for a quick trip to Target. She had the radio set to a local country station. I was OK with it on the way up (playing “Mr. Mom” which I’ve already heard too many times, though I never listen to country).
I got my root beer float bars successfully and exited the store. Then came the drive home. A song comes on which I can only assume is called “I love this bar.” It is the very reason I simply don’t do the country thing. How can I? I mean, lyrics like “we got all kinds of lookers, sometimes hookers” and “I like my girlfriend… but I love this bar.”
Nota Bene - I recognize that there is a lot of “non-I-love-this-bar” Country music and I even like some Rascal Flatts and Lonestar songs, but they need a new genre. Non-redneck country or something. Just think of something.
The Oscars ceremony is merely an Ideological State Apparatus because when you boil it down it is just the people in charge of movies acknowledging their own accomplishments and saying to the nation:
“Movies are important because we give awards for the best movies.”
Thus, the system of Hollywood has created a means of making the public believe that movies should be seen solely on the basis that awards are given to the best films, actors, and actresses.
It would be like me saying, I’m the best looking guy in the world because I said so and I’m validated in saying that because I’m the best looking guy in the world.

“My english 316 teacher could tell that most of the class was not paying attention to her, and that we were bored with reviewing the material
so she decided to dismiss the class several minutes early.
I called out ‘Way to read your audience, Breanne!’”
So Jacob came over tonight to see tonight’s Office and before he came, he called. I was in the middle of getting our daughter out of the bath, so I explain to him, “I tell you what, we’re putting *Samsonite* (name changed to protect the innocent) down, so I’ll call you back in a sec.” “Oh, what’d she do to deserve it?” “She bit a neighbor.”
Let it be known, that we did not euthanize our child, nor do we ever have such plans. However, when 8:00 PM comes around, it’s time for bed, whether she likes it or not.
Postelnate back in customer service did something awresome with Photoshop. I give you: the best The Office Wallpaper ever. I think it could use a little touching up, perhaps replacing Oscar’s head with Karen and fitting Andy in somewhere. I know they’re originally from Stamford and all, but they’re darn good additions to the show. Enjoy.

I was in my racquetball class, and I completely blew a 7 point lead, and lost the game. I wrote on my progress sheet that my teacher reads each day after class: “I’m going to kill myself.” She thought that was pretty funny.
Though it’s convenient in a lot of ways, Google’s outsmartted themselves in this case and really gotten all up in my bidness too far. If I’m logged in to my gmail account, then close it out (without logging out, which happens often), then try to go to AdWords, it instantly brings up a “Welcome to Google AdWords *blah blah blah* then gives me the option to create an account.”
There’s no “log out” or “switch users” option. There’s only, “log into your adsense account?” or “Yes- Create Account.” This has happened enough that it’s actually getting really really irritating. In order to log into an adwords account that’s not under my gmail address, I have to sign into something else, sign out, then go back to AdWords. This seems like it would be a really easy fix on Google’s end. Who do I contact for that?
Jacob says:
“I was in the cougar eat, debating with a friend whether or not I’m filmed constantly like truman burbank. So I shouted out SHAZAM! And only two people out of fifty looked. THEREFORE, I AM THE TRUMAN SHOW.”
I hope you’re all satisfied.
Audacity is another one of those programs I file under “must-have.” Like unto paint.net, it’s one of those programs that disproves the old “you get what you pay for” saying. It is, indeed, 100% free, very useful, and very easy to use.
Audacity is a free audio editor that will let you pretty much pull in audio in any format, including .wav, .mp3, .ogg (with the right drivers, of course), etc. You can then tweak it with the included plugins, including (see screen shot below) fade in/out, equalizer, inversion, reversal, noise removal and more. You can then export your projects as the ever-versatile MP3 or as raw audio. It also has a next-to-nothing footprint (it doesn’t eat a lot of system resources and loads very quickly). Beautiful.
This is just another one of the beauties of open-source coders sharing their talents through the internet.
