Style Browsing…

CSS Stylesheet Browser - now that is some cool stuff! IE5 and above on a PC can run this and then right-click to bring up a list of stylesheets used by the page. View the code, open the stylesheet, and more! [via Anil Dash]


Bunny Lessons…

All I Need to Learn about Life I learned from the Easter Bunny!
- Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
- Walk softly and carry a big carrot.
- Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.
- There’s no such thing as too much candy.
- All work and no play can make you a basket [...]


Tweaks are Fun!

I finally got around to adding some tweaks to the sidebar on the default skin! I’ll tweak the others later this week, but for now there are new lists on skin #1. “Words Left Behind” are the 5 most recent posts with comments. “In Little Groups” are the category archives. I [...]


The Machine…

Jason & I went to see The Time Machine this afternoon. Ah, not too bad. I mean, I’ve seen worse, but I think it could have been better. Jason said it would have been better if they had followed the book more. I haven’t read the book in years, so I [...]


Just What I Always Needed…

Thanks to Leia’s post about the stuff and the comments left behind, I discovered you can buy a 5 lb. of Original Silly Putty! Imagine how psyched you would have been as a kid to have 5 pounds of the stuff! Ok, forget the kid part - it would be cool even now [...]


Wise Women…

I have been meaning to join Wise-Women for many months now, especially after meeting Dori in person at SXSW. Tonight I finally took a moment to join, and after reading the latest articles on the site I am really excited about getting the lists! I made myself unsub from a lot of lists [...]


Wanna be ePregnant?

eBunintheOven.com - an eImpregnation service. “eBunintheOven.com is a novelty service that allows customers to e-impregnate a person of their choice. The recipient will receive an e-impregnation notice and learn who e-impregnated them, as well as an update on their virtual pregnancy every two weeks (via email) over the three-month pregnancy (the internet causes [...]


Article with a Twist…

Blog.craze - an article about blogs written as a blog. How is that for an interesting twist? [via Kottke]
Thanks to the article, I also stumbled across The Obscure Store & Reading Room. Tons of fun to read, and amazing the things that people do. The site is like an online freak [...]


Did You…

Did You Know…? Food for the mind. [via Rebecca's Pocket]


Exhaustion…

I was so exhausted last night that I fell asleep before 9pm on the couch, woke up at midnight and went to bed in a foggy haze, and didn’t get up until 9am. Wow. I went to check out Chris Pirillo’s new haircut when I got home and Tivo, having a mind of [...]


I Wanna See!

Robyn is taunting me with the fact that Chris Pirillo is on TV sporting his new haircut and I can’t see it! That’s it! I’m going home! Oh wait, It’s past time to go home - I’ve been here since 8am. First thing, I’ll be watching Call for Help on the [...]


Surprise Spam…

Guess what, Dori and Jason? I got that same spam too. Considering the source, I didn’t mind it that much - but it was wrong by principal. The first e-mail I got from them I figured I got because I dropped in my business card at their party - but then I [...]


Smokers…

Yesterday when I wrote about the 10 people outside smoking at 9am, I forgot to mention that I don’t work with any of the people I saw outside. I have plenty of co-workers that do smoke, but all of them put in above and beyond a 40 hour work week. I’m totally cool [...]


Happy Birthday!

Huge Happy Birthday wishes to PromoGuy! I’d take you to lunch at IHOP if I was there! Hope you have a wonderful day!


TAR, Episode 4 - Coming Soon…

While I did watch The Amazing Race last night - I was still sleepy and in a haze, so I don’t remember it as clearly as I would like. I saved it on the Tivo and I am going to watch it again tomorrow night, just so I can really “take it all in” [...]


Off the Top of my Head…

I’m tired. Still. 8+ hours of sleep, and it took all the effort I had to get out of bed this morning.
Personally, I don’t care to be around cigarette smoke because it normally gives me a bad headache. I don’t think I would ever take it to the extreme of the small [...]


Tomes…

GnomeTomes - Quick . Easy . Fun . Useful . Portable eBooks for Everyone! Run! Go get yours now! (Not to mention that Chris Pirillo ROCKS!) [via Meryl]


Zzzzzz…

I’m tired. No, really tired. Good thing I have to leave early to go to Jason’s school at 6pm and meet the new teacher - then I am going home to veg and watch The Amazing Race 2! If you catch me sleepin’ here, could you nudge me and wake me up?


How to Tell When It’s Too Late…

Know when you & your co-worker have been at the office way too late? When anything and everything causes manic laughter, you’re snorting like a pug dog, and when one of you is attempting to compose a serious e-mail to a client the other one keeps shouting “Hairy Hermit Crab!” Gee, thanks a [...]


Hair Today…

You can now download a Call for Help: Chris Pirillo Hair Montage Wallpaper which is quite amusing - but I have one question. Where is Robyn’s picture of Chris as a blonde?
