I'm sold, Rabbit for me.

The new VW Rabbit has seduced me. I'll buy one if I can qualify for the low VW interest rate, starts at 2.9% for 24 months. Sadly I'd have to get a longer term loan. The longer the term the more the percentage rate. Still ends up less than the best rate my credit union is offering right now. VW Special Offers.

Update: Didn't buy a Rabbit yet, outside sources dissuaded me from going to the dealership without financing already figured out. I agree, in the past ended up with an over 20% loan at the same place. Sucks that they are the only VW dealership in town.

Guess I'm over killing that dog

I made an awful joke today about the dog I hit. Was mentioning to a co-worker that I wish I had got the dog owner's info because I have a scratch and dent on the hood of my car now and I'd like her to pay to get it fixed. I said "Maybe the scratch came from the collar, or leash, or maybe a tooth..." I could see he wanted to laugh, he bent over trying to control himself, I swear I saw him mouth "maybe a tooth". I have a sick sense of humor. This was all after he had said "At least I'm not a dog killer", so I was provoked.

THUD, oops, sorry dog

Hit and killed a dog today. Didn't mean to, the dog was on a leash and got away from its owner. I couldn't see the golden retriever as it ran in front of my car. It was raining a little, and had the sun in my eyes at the same time. The accident happened in front of an acupuncture place for dogs pets and humans people (?wtf?) a vet (not sure he was) came out right away to try to revive the animal. There wasn't any blood, all the damage must've been internal. Actually there was blood dripping out of its mouth when they picked the dead dog up to take it into the acupuncture place. I left my name and phone number in case the former owner wants to try to sue me. She was all crying and stuff so I didn't want to hang around, she forgave me and thanked me for having the guts to stick around after the accident. I'm sure she feels much worse than I do, it's no fun killing a dog.

My new Virgin Mobile phone sucks

Finally getting kicked off the Verizon family plan this week, so I got a prepaid Virgin Mobile phone that cost 20 bucks. It's the new Marbl or something like that, made by Kyocera and it is a flimsy piece of crap. Oh well, don't plan on keeping it long, once the iPhone comes out I'll make up my mind about what cell phone I want. Either an iPhone or some sort of Symbian or Windows Mobile...or Palm.

No way am I buying another ringtone for this thing either. Bought "Romantic Rights" for 2.50 and the quality is awful, not even the part of the song I wanted, maybe you can preview before you buy. Wonder if I can get a data cable... nevermind, not keeping this phone.

ColumbiaHouse.com open to anybody...

Is this a dirty little secret about columbiahouse.com? I know I can access my account by using my account number as username and my zipcode as password. If somebody stole the DVD I ordered from my mailbox he'd have all the info needed to take over my account. Now I really want to cancel. Can't cancel on the weekend, argggh.

Call 1-800-262-2001 to cancel Monday thru Friday.

The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)

I have to quit the Columbia House DVD Club. I'm gonna pay probably pay 25 bucks or more for this sappy movie because I didn't decline in time. The Pursuit of Happyness (2006). I also have "Happy Feet" which I have yet to watch because of Columbia House. Oh and "Open Season", I did watch that, don't want to keep it, wasn't worth the 30 bucks it cost.

Arrgh! Tried to cancel, but can't because it's the weekend.

Making money...?

I have a controlling interest in DS: Warranty Voided. I am amazed that the site is within 2 months of breaking even, that is assuming ad clicks stay at the current level. My math may be wrong, but I've had crapulent for years and have yet to get over 20 bucks worth of google ad revenue. The ds site has been active less than a month and earned almost 2 and a half bucks. Goes to show that good content, most of which comes via my partner, will get good visitors and clicks.

Larry Flynt gave me a nice gift

Today was my birthday, I don't celebrate birthdays, if you want gifts from me it can be Xmas or birthday, nobody doubles up. I'm not a christian, so I celebrate everyone's birthday on the 25th of December. I want to thank Larry Flynt for the generous offer of Hustler magazine for only 19.99 a year plus a free DVD, cover price would be 116.87 without the free DVD. Couldn't resist the offer since Penthouse became "Maxim"ized. Want some real porn in that black plastic bag in my mailbox. I remember Penthouse used to have some nasty stuff, girls pissing, penetration, anal, and the ads were always super nasty. No clue what Penthouse expects to gain from becoming less porny. I won't continue my subscription.

I can't deal with this...

Double-take: Actress on both Heroes and 24 - TV Squad I'd never know about it if I didn't have a dvr. Jack Bauer's sister in law on 24 is also married to Peter Petrelli on Heroes. She probably dies on both series.

Idears are in my head...

Posting on another site I'm affiliated with got me a wondering how much a giclee printer would cost. This site claims to be non-commercial, but will happily sell you reports!

No dice. No way I can afford a suitable printer or give the printer enough stuff to print to pay for it, or have a mechanism to sell what was printed.

But I do know where I should ask for a job.

Zit in my nose, ouch

Got a fucking zit inside my nose that I can't seem find the angle to squeeze to pop it. Might be a zit or ingrown hair, I don't care, just want to get rid of it. You know you're old when you have gray nose hairs, sometimes white.

The ultimate stress test / money maker

Digg users are hating on Digg because they wouldn't allow 09:F9:11:02:9D:74:E3:5B:D8:41:56:C5:63:56:88:C0 to be displayed or linked to or even mentioned. I think Digg either took a clue from Reddit and Slashdot and decided they are in the clear and have nothing to worry about, or they censored for a few hours to cause a hubbub and then stopped in an effort to gain revenue from ad hits. No matter what I'm sure the Digg servers are getting hammered.

So much dog hair

Do pugs ever stop shedding? Sheesh, hair everywhere. Staying at my folks place for who knows how long and they've got a couple of pugs. I would think that in the cold weather they'd keep as much hair as possible. Maybe when it gets colder.

"My Vote Doesn't Count"

Dummy at work told me that today. He voted, but didn't vote for president, just local elections. All because of the electoral college system we have, his lame state of Idaho only has 4. He claims that he hates the electoral college system and would rather that the popular vote would prevail. Hey dummy, you didn't vote for president, so yours didn't count period. Obama won the popular vote as well.

Transformers Blu-Ray

The movie still sucks, but it looks a lot better in Blu-Ray. I will say that you can sort of tell the bad guys from the good guys in the higher def version. Viewing the DVD version I couldn't really follow the action, or tell which robot was which. To be honest I was catching up on email and stuff during the heavy CGI scenes. Just wanted to see what's her name in a belly shirt and short skirt in high def.

I like hating coworkers

I've seen that people take credit for my work. Not difficult work, took me 15 minutes or less to do it, squeezed it out before I left on Friday. Emailed the result of my work to the coworker that requested it. Subsequently read an email where that coworker claimed that they created it, they may have edited it, but don't take full credit. Just gives me more reason to hate on folk. This particular coworker couldn't have created it ever. Best to move on if able. Will be with some folk this weekend that might have some options.

Kristen Wiig of SNL had a nose job

It's obvious. Why even debate it? If you look at Kristen Wiig's nose in "Walk Hard" and how it looks on the most recent episodes of SNL, it's clear that she had a nose job. I personally think she looks better.

AHHH, Sick of these political ads

WTF does "opposed defending marriage" mean? Does that mean he or she thinks homos should be able to get married? Fucking christians need to learn that America isn't a theocracy yet. Are there any non-religious congresspersons or senators?

Ok, might do some work on the broke dick iPhone

I just bought a new glass screen and tools to replace it off eBay. Shit is coming from Hong Kong. Why do they call it 2G? That 2G stuff confuses me. Anyway, even if it's the wrong size it was only around 14 bucks. Isn't the 3G iPhone the second generation? They claim it fits a 4 gig iPhone, so that would be a first generation iPhone.

iPhone glass replacement. Worth it?

A local company can replace the busted glass screen on my iPhone for "... $65 (parts), $10.88 Shipping, and $35 labor...", so hmm, math, let's see 110.88. Cheaper than sending it back to Apple. Too bad I don't have some other phone lying around I could put the sim card into during the repair time. They say 5-10 days turnaround. Would they need to have my iPhone the whole time? Need to find out what it would cost to get out of my ATT contract. Then go T-Mobile and G1, depending on what it costs to dump ATT. Although, I'm liking an App on the iPhone called GasHog that helps you track how many miles per gallon you get, and what the fuel costs per mile.

That G1 looks goofy, has no standard headphone jack, doesn't play video, not truly open thanks to T-Mobile, has a 2 year contract like ATT.

Fuck it, I'm stuck. Maybe I'll get the 3G iPhone instead and sell the busted one to help offset the cost. I'll have to make sure to take blurry pictures of it.

Got my used / refurbished Apple TV

It was very easy to setup the first 3 times. Why 3 times? Well, I'm trying to use Boxee on it and that requires some work, not really, but I tried it over again when samba wasn't working. Still need some work to get samba shares to load. All the iTunes stuff works great, I can stream any media in my iTunes library fine, movies I've bought, podcasts, music I've bought. What I really want is samba shares to work. That will involve some ssh and ftp work. NitoTV may be the answer. Not a novice to ssh or ftp so I'm not scared about it, just too late in the day to tackle it tonight.

BTW: Never knew I could boot from a USB card reader.

BTW 2: The 2.2 Apple TV update included 1080p.
