Scam City version 10 Not Using A Fancy “X” Like Others

Posts from October 2006

Managing

So since my last proper post, I’ve managed to bag myself a job, and I’ll be honest, it’s not the greatest job for a cornucopia of reasons but it’s only temporary to get us through the holiday period which is fast approaching.


Too Close to Home…

A man was killed in Peachtree City after his estranged wife shot him in the car park of his work. The man was Eric Paul Ulrich, my mother’s cousin’s husband’s brother… I’m utterly stunned.


Enron Explorer

Enron Explorer. Read all the emails of a dying company written by those with their heads in the noose. All nicely tagged and searchable.


How Not to End a Marathon

How not to end a marathon. As he crossed the finish line of the 2006 LaSalle Bank Chicago Marathon, Robert Cherulyot slipped on a logo at the finish line and cracked his head on the pavement.


Little Miss Sunshine

This goes down as the most belated movie “review” I’ve ever done, as I went to see this fine, fine, funny movie over a week ago with Duane. It’s not because it’s bad or anything, quite the opposite, I’m just really lazy like that.


Explosions of Colour

An awesome Sony Bravia advert. Shot on location in Glasgow, Scotland.


The Curse of the Yankees?

Following Cory Lidle’s accident, a private plane carrying Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez overran a runway at Bob Hope Airport. If I was a Yankee, I’d avoid air travel for the time being…


Flash Earth

Flash Earth. A wonderful site that combines pretty much every satellite aerial imagery site you can think of to show what Google, Microsoft, Yahoo and NASA would show on any point on Earth.


Grey’s Anatomy

We live in a wonderous age, if not for all the shit going down this would truely be considered man’s golden age. We can put man on the moon, tourists in space, we can cure almost any disease, the limit is only your imagination… So I ask you this.

Plane Crash in New York City

A small plane has crashed into a high-rise residential building at 72nd Street and York in Manhattan in New York City. No further details immediately available.


Grind House Trailer

A trailer for Grind House. A case of two movies in one here by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. And it looks SO awesome… It has everything, mindless violence and a chick with a gun for a leg… Yes, a chick with a gun for a leg!


Google Does Buy YouTube

Google announced today that it has agreed to acquire YouTube for $1.65 billion in a stock-for-stock transaction. Following the acquisition, YouTube will operate independently to preserve its successful brand and passionate community. Damn, just damn… The world HAS gone mad afterall…


Programmable Soda

A programmable bottle with four flavors and a caffeine button can produce up to 32 unique concoctions. A Cherry Vanilla Lemon Lime Caffeine shot anyone?
