This truck was parked in the parking lot of the Motor City casino in Detroit. Yes, some one actually drove it.

That’s Jake. Highly amused.
Hockey, gadgets and geekiness.
I took a Lenovo Thinkpad running Mac OS X to work two weeks ago because I needed to do some work in Omnigraffle. I showed it off to the willing geeks who properly “ooohed” and “aaahed” over it. ![]()
Later that week I hijacked a Mini Mac from another project in the company (we’re a nearly pure Microsoft/IBM shop) to set it up at my desk and use it for a week or so.
When I returned from Web 2.0 Expo, the following note was stuck to the Mini Mac.
(Mystery Letter)
I still don’t know who wrote it, but I’ve got it pinned up in my cubicle.
Definitely a must-see. Clark, the Canadian Hockey Goalie, a short by George Plamondon (link via blindluck) is hilarious – especially if you’re a goalie.
Watching the short reminded me of a SNL goalie drills video I saw a while back that I absolutely loved. It still cracks me up, even after seeing it for the tenth time.
…you need to get one of these. Two years ago it was just me in the office. Now every time I go to the bathroom, and of course it’s because I’ve waited so long that I really need to go, it’s locked and I end up doing the Pee Pee Dance out in the hallway. I know I’m not the only one — once I’m in the bathroom, I can usually hear a jiggle of the door handle and a groan from outside the door.
I sure hope we get into the new building soon.
The hazards of a growing company.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Making websites like that, to sell your services no less, should be punishable by death.
I just knew there was something wrong with that George Bush guy!
I’ve got the day off today, which is probably the only reason why I’m posting. I’ve been pretty busy at work, as usual, and unmotivated to do anything else computer-related when I’m not working. Pfft.
I came across this yesterday. Apparently if you do a search for “chest pain” on HotBot (they have a new minimalistic interface I was checking out), they think you should go to EBay and buy it.
See? I’m not lying.
I’ve got a midwife appointment today and I’m going “for coffee” with a neighbor later too. Um, not in that order. My belly is getting big. My mom was asking me for a recent picture, but (stupid me) I left my camera in London last weekend when we went to the grandparents for dinner. I’ll see if I can borrow my neighbor’s camera — I don’t want to drive to London and back to get it because I’m just going there on Xmas day anyway.
I think I’ve got my entries selected for the caption contest. I’ll put them up later today.
