A rhetorical question, ’cause you can’t make me! Nyah!
The previous entry was number 500. That is all.

How Much Would You Pay?
Seriously, does anyone buy the Cafe Press stuff? I’m thinking of putting up some Solonor-emblazoned crap to get some spending money for my daughter to take on her trip next summer. I don’t want to pour a ton of time into it, if it only gets you about $1.50 a month. I’ll just wait and do it for the vanity of it, later.
Although, who could resist a “I Helped Pepperkat Go To Europe And All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt” shirt?

Mini-Camera Jealousy
Sgt. Grump and Cableman went to the monthly computer show Saturday, and each of them came back with a digital camera on a keychain. I hate them–not so much for the mini-cameras, but for the price they paid: $32!! I have scoured the Internet, looking at pencams and keyring cams and wafer thin cams (they’re wafer thin), and no place have I seen them this cheap.
There are trade offs, of course. The resolution is only 0.1 megapixel. The viewfinder is a joke. It only takes 20 shots at 352 x 288 resolution, 80 shots at 176 x 144. And Grump had to fashion a cardboard insert for the little case, so the activation button wouldn’t be pressed in his pocket, wearing down the battery. But $32! And it does a decent job of acting as a web cam and taking a few seconds of video.
So that I’m even for calling Bill a sexy smurf, here’s a pic of my ugly mug, taken with Grump’s keychain (image degraded by converting to jpg and by the subject matter).

Confess!
(Yes, it’s time once again for another post by Laurence Simon in the Amish Tech Support Blog A Day Tour. Today’s kind host is Solonor, and let’s see what’s going on in Laurence’s evil mind…)
It’s time to play Confess! All you have to do is confess something in the comments section of this post.
Ready?
Okay, I’ll start.
I collect my fingernail and toenail clippings and keep them in a jar in the bathroom. I did this to keep from swallowing my fingernail clippings, and I figured I’d have stopped a long time ago.
I’ve been doing it for five years now.
So, what have you got to confess?
Confess!

I Want My ATS
I completely forgot! Today is my turn on the Amish Tech Support 2003 Blog A Day Tour, wherein I turn over the mic to the esteemed (or is that “steamed”) Mr. Simon.
I wonder where he could be…

The Solonor’s Ink Well that Smiles Back
I had to go back and finish this, or it would prey on my mind forever. I still can’t believe that 99% of these are coming up first click. Some of them are too funny (and eerily appropriate).

All Your Ox Is Belong To Us
Can barely type. Laughing too hard. If you haven’t seen the Bad FOTR Captions on this bootleg copy, swallow what you’re drinking and do so.

Update: That link is, unfortunately, dead now. But reader Jorgen Hattemaker sends us another one with badly translated Two Towers captions, so we’re happy.

I Can’t Believe I’m This Bored
Thanks to Gnome-Girl: Only The Crumbliest Flakiest Gnome-Girl, I can amuse myself by seeing what’s the first thing that comes up on The Advertising Slogan Generator for everyone in my blogroll (in no particular order).
Yes, dammit, I have no life. Shut up.
For good measure, lets start with the non-bloggers:
Naughty, but Domino.
The Coolest Ric The Schmuck on Ice.
Bread With the Sgt. Grump Taken Out.
Super Cableman is Almost Here.
America’s Most Trusted Justagirl.
Dude, You’re Getting a Not So Red Menace!
Ejen Is Good For You.
You Can Be Sure Of Snowgirl.
I Feel Like Charmian Tonight. *ahem* Yes, well, that goes without saying, doesn’t it?
