Slow news days

You know it’s a slow news day when you have headlines like this:  2 NYC Firefighters Hurt in Scaffolding Collapse at Ground Zero Site: Watch Live Now, I really don’t think I want to watch it LIVE.  In fact, I’ll just wish them well and not watch it at all.  That’s the end of that one. But wait, there’s more!… (more…)

Spam is good for your ego

So far this morning, it’s 7:44 in the morning here, I have had: Six women who just wanted to say “Hi” ( and I bet that’s not all! ) Three women have flat out wanted to do me. One woman offered to bring her twin sister. About ten people wanted to make me rich. Just so I wouldn’t have to work too… (more…)

Office of Defects Investigation

Got a car you’re not too pleased with or rather suspicious of the quality?  Check out the Office of Defects Investigation to see all the recalls for your car.  It’s actually saved me money.  Very handy page to have at your fingertips.

Feedburner

I have made some major updates to the blog.  Particularly, I am using Feedburner for a lot of new functions.  If you have an RSS feed to this blog and the others here, please delete the old feed and replace it with the links in labeled "subscribe" over there —>>>.  It’s worth the trouble.

RuPaul

Britney Spears nude screensaver here!

As far as I know, this is about as nude a Britney as you’re going to find.  And from what I’ve heard, it will be for at least a year for sure.  Actually, this post is about something more important than seeing Britney’s boobs. According to a computer software maker, Spears tops the list of famous people whose names are… (more…)

MSN Spaces

Microsoft is in the blog business now apparently.  I got a teaser from MSN.  I’m a sucker for about anything related to blogging right now.  Here’s what it looks like, http://spaces.msn.com/members/moonagewebdream/ For a novice, it’s OK.  It’s easy to use and free.  Space is limited to 30 meg.  It does seem to load quickly. I’ll be staying right here tho,… (more…)

Firefox

OK, my buddy Hedonistix announced the arrival of the latest, greatest, internet browser, Firefox. I’m using it right now just to check it out.  It’s pretty basic, seems to have a very small memory footprint, and really quick.  I think it’s faster than IE 6, but, the speed is hard to tell from here as they are both pretty darn… (more…)
