It sounds like one of those nature CDs outside right now. I recorded the sound from the bedroom window:
rain
Click on the water to feed them. Click and drag the turtles to move them around. Here is where I got it from.
The Sharp TV Commercial with Sulu is my favorite commercial right now. Sometimes when I am in the mood to smile, I just play this:
If the player doesn’t work for you, just click this link: Sulu
I went to see the Conan O’Brien Tour tonight and it rocked! We got Triumph, Andy, the self-pleasuring panda, and the Walker Texas Ranger Lever (now renamed the Chuck Norris Rural Policeman Handle). We also got a surprise one night only musical appearance from Eddie Vedder. I don’t know how Conan got him, because I know he doesn’t go out much. I really don’t think there will be a better show on the tour than what I just saw. And THEN on his encore performance, Conan decided to run out into the audience while playing guitar. He happened to pick the seat in front of me to stand on! Now I know no one would believe me, so lucky for me my phone takes video! Here you go, enjoy and be jealous:
I didn’t plan on it, but yesterday I added a pet to my growing animal collection…A little puppy named Bear. So far the kitties are tolerating him as you can see in this picture. Scroll down for more.
I saw this at the grocery store yesterday. Apparently it is a common item in the U.K. But here it just seems wrong.
If you read my blog at all, you probably already know of the fun I have with an audio recorder and the Speech Analysis feature of Adobe Soundbooth. I record common everyday things and let Soundbooth try to figure out what it is saying if it were a human voice. Well this time I recorded my dishwasher. Here’s what it had to say:
A,
the likelihood of your,
your your,
your book,
Good book.
Toure you know,
a write a.
(Note, all I’ve edited in the direct speech translation was the removal of duplicate words, and I added the punctuation)
Interestingly, Toure is an American writer! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toure. So apparently my dishwasher is recommending novels. I just haven’t been listening.
Thanks to hackers, it has come to this. Windows 7 has to ask me if I trust my printer:
Well, I’m not sure if I trust my printer. It’s never stolen my money before, or verbally abused me. But it does run out of ink suspiciously fast, so maybe it’s cheating on me with some other user!? I’m just so conflicted.
I got bored over Thanksgiving weekend and built an “addition” to the cat tower. The cats were getting so big, they both couldn’t fit on the little top of the original tower anymore. The light-colored carpet is the original store-bought tower. I built the entire dark-carpet side from scratch. Overboard? Maybe. But they love it.
