It was like the beginning of the internets, well for me anyway. Suck.com was the shiznitz and I read it every day. I would even print it (onto dead trees and everything) so I could carry it around and share it with whoever I could show it to.

It was so witty and I was cool because I read it.

That was then.

Now, they still have the same article they put up over six years ago. All the writers have moved on and become fairly successful, but I do miss it.

Thank God for Radio Paradise, a simple pleasure on an otherwise terrible day. Hotter than hell in Dallas and the sun is shining through the window of the office I’m in and directly onto my forehead, giving my brain sunstroke.

Liquid or Gel?

So, last Wednesday I was walking through DFW airport at 5:30 in the morning when I saw something weird. Just past the army of workers clearing away the folding cots that littered the terminal from the previous nights “guests” and I saw a woman sitting by herself in the middle of a vast section of those incredibly uncomfortable airport chair/arm/chair/arm/chair dealies (they should be: arm/chair/arm/arm/chair/arm). But, I suppose, she wasn’t really alone. She had with her a see-through plastic carton of a dozen eggs.

Chicken eggs, I presume.

Which got me thinking… with all this War on Moisture stuff we have to suffer through at the airport, are eggs a liquid or gel? I mean, the contents certainly are, but does the whole thing count as a liquid or gel and the proper precautions taken?

I assume each egg is under the 3.5oz limit, but shouldn’t they have been all smashed together into a single Freedom Baggie?

We're Back, Baby!

After a month of suffering (yes, suffering) with an “HD DVR” from Brighthouse, we’ve jumped back on the Tivo bandwagon. We thought we could live with the “yeah, but it’s not a Tivo” but we couldn’t.

I’ve had one of DirecTV’s Tivos for more than five years, and I guess we were just too used to using it and didn’t really want to switch, but I really wanted to see what my HD TV actually looked like with HD on it.

Most of the people I’ve talked to concerning the whole Tivo vs. DVR thing think I’m crazy, on paper they both do the same thing, but in practice there’s just no comparison. The DVR has been stupefyingly user unfriendly, buttons are in weird places, the menus are ugly and hard to understand, and it’s been practically impossible to search for programs.

The Tivo just kinda works like you think it should.

They must have that patented.
