Ok, FB is really REALLY freaking me out… I’m seeing a friend suggestion for a gent who had a flat next to me in Bournemouth, England in early 2006.

We swapped email addys and generally got along well, but other than that, we didn’t spend much time together, and certainly not online

Ok i’m creeped out… Facebook just suggested a friend for me – my landlord from a house we finished renting in 2005.

We have no common friends!

…back in Houston this coming Saturday.

Prayer pardners, start extending the landing gear!

Yeee haaawww [he skrinshes his eyes shut]

A while back the temps were below freezing.

Some clever guy here in England thought,

“O my it’s really really really cold. Probably cold enough to freeze bubbles. Someone should see what that looks like.”

And then he did.

The photos are really neat, especially the one where one of the bubbles bursts!

O my goodness this is SO FUNNY

Microsoft came out with a product called “SongSmith” that, when you sing into the mic, the software creates/selects music to match your singing style and beat and crafts a new tune featuring yourself.

Kind of like karaoke in reverse.

Well some clever monkeys started putting classic music videos through the SongSmith…! The software pulls out only the vocals to mix it in with its own music, so you can imagine what Eddie Van Halen would sound like if the nerds in Redmond produced the music for the band. How about AC/DC, Radiohead, Billy Idol? How ’bout Britney Spears’ “Toxic”? Now that’s toxic.

Well wonder no more, just visit this link to Youtube. Just don’t make the mistake of drinking anything while watching/listening. It could be dangerous to your keyboard :o)

FA Cup? whazzat?  West Ham is a football team and not a train station?  And who the heck are these Barnsley fellas?

I barely know the goal* of the game, but today I’m going to be a football fan :o)

*pun intended

Northern Line, heading into the City, morning

If/when the line goes down and all passengers have to use busses, find the nearest bus stop. This will be the one with a gaggle of unhappy people at it, trying to squeeze their way into the next oncoming bus.

Then, walk AGAINST the flow of automobile traffic to find the next available bus stop BEFORE the one with the huge gathering of people.

This way one can get on a bus BEFORE the bus hits the stop nearest the tube station that has the impacted service.

Well worth the extra few minutes’ walk :o)
