Hung in Cheek

The best thing for advertising must be a lack of talent. On a completely different subject, William Hung was advertising on TV for Ask Jeeves as an expert on music. Ask Jeeves had the nerve to claim they were more of an expert on music than he was. It is hard for them not to get a big head. They've changed their web site around and now they have mimicked almost all of the features found on Google and MSN. As David Spade would say in the Capital One Lingo, "That's InNOvation."

Today I've been into TV. I wanted something to do while I washed my dishes. It's the boring, lonely part of my days. So I set up a streaming server to broadcast cable TV wirelessly over my home network. I watched "Everybody Loves Raymond" on my 12" Laptop screen in the kitchen tonight. I did this without all of the hassle of carrying in a bulky 13" TV. In defense of what sounds like another cheap shot at sarcasm, a TV is quite a bit heavier than a laptop and I'd also need a longer wire for the cable. Anyway, I hadn't been a nerd for almost 36 hours so I had to do it. I did it with all free software, too!

So life is funny. TBS is funny. I watched TBS. I'm watching TBS. It's midnight. I need sleep so badly. I was going to go to bed 2 hrs. ago but there was a movie on that I had the slightest of interest in. Sleep Beckons. Mind reckons. I'll be out in two seconds.

I like this post, Chad, I really do. It's quite entertaining and I like your rhyme scheme at the end there.

And I also liked your message on my phone the other day. I would have called you back but I realized I don't know where I put your number. So call me again and leave it in a message.

*whispers* line...?

Bye!
