It’s official. I’ve picked out my new condo. *pats self on back* The bad news, however, is that was the easy part. I wrote a check for $9000 yesterday as earnest money to eventually be used as part of my down payment on my new place and signed and initialed close to two dozen papers to complete the purchase agreement. Now I have seven days to finalize selections for options and colors and stuff. Oh and actually apply for a loan. I just want to have it all over with! @_@
Wow. Just, wow. Jason McElwain is the man.
update: CBS huffed and puffed and DMCA’d that old link so here’s a different link to the special trifecta specialist.
Yawn, so easy.
You Passed 8th Grade Math
Congratulations, you got 10 /10 correct!
Could You Pass 8th Grade Math?
Please, give me something actually difficult next time, Jason.
I figured out the actual square of 5.5 in my head. I’m hardcore like that.
Baxter knocked over a glass of grapefruit juice last night. I wiped the juice off but some soaked in and now I got a wireless paperweight. Damn cat is walking on my last nerves when I’m already in a funk. There’s no particular reason for me to be in a bad mood lately, I just haven’t been my usual perky self the past few days. Oh well, at least it’s friday. Hopefully I can get a used wavebird on the way home.
Can’t put my music from cds onto my ipod? Alright, I’ll just download my music for free over P2P then.
Found an article making fun one of those wacky action teams and their sensationalist reports. The fine action news team at ABC’s Philedelphia affiliate recently alerted its viewers to a dangerous toy, the Nintendo DS. Their fine investigative reporting has discovered that children can chat with strangers anywhere in the world with the DS, making it difficult to track predators down. O.O Except that the last paragraph points out that the chat functionality mentioned only works with people less than 65 feet away. Oops. There went the whole premise of their article.
I got my HD set top cable box today. It’s pretty sweet. But I had hoped to watch me some Olympics in HD. I was denied. See, I saw CBS, ABC and FOX listed as available HD channels and didn’t even think to look specifically for NBC. Why wouldn’t they have their HD content broadcasted by Time Warner as well? Well apparently the dayton affiliate is owned by LIN-TV and LIN-TV is breaking cable companies balls all over the country. LIN-TV, Sinclair Broadcasting and other independant companies that own local stations are trying to get cable companies to pay extra to retransmit their HDTV signals. How retarded is that?
