Drunk History?s Derek Waters on why ?Hey Soul Sister? is ?the sound of diarrhea?

Pretty much all of Hatesong is a fantastic read, even if you don't agree with the song hate. The one about fun.'s Some Nights and the one about Mackelmore's Same Love put me in stitches no matter how many times I re-read them.

as far as i know, there are no good packet sniffers for iphone, the device i'm currently stuck with until i renew my contract… so unannounced networks were indeed safe.

BTW - I mentioned earlier that we didn't need that last bottle of wine.  Now, at 2PM in my office, I'm feeling we DEFINITELY didn't need that bottle.

we are getting old, my friend…

Blizzard is the honeypot VPN through a firewall.  The nonbroadcast SSID's are exactly that and behind a different firewall so best of luck to the hackers.   

Avril Lavigne is Available.  Again.

Too bad she'd probably only for Sweetcell….

yes, was just thinking…what horrible band will she dip into next..

As much as I would enjoy that, I'm going to prefer this more:

I had yet another revelation over a glass of wine last night.

My fiancée submitted some photos to be a model in a boudoir shoot opportunity and her motivation for me was that I would be the beneficiary of the photo book as a wedding gift.  Fine by me, but then I thought, you know what would be awesome….

If, on my wedding day, I was given not just a boudoir book of photos of my new bride at her current age (which, presumably I'm very familiar with) but a book (or books) of boudoir photos of my new bride from when she was 18 years old, and 21 years old, and 25 years old and 30 years old - every 5 years until we eventually tie the knot - now THAT is a gift I would cherish.

So, those of you with daughters, encourage them to do this for their future husband so this becomes a thing and we can change the world.  For the better.

I did change the registry over the weekend for the Spehro BB-8 however.  That went over well…so let's add this too and see who people think it's really for.

Freddie Mercury Dressed Princess Di in Drag to Sneak her into a Gay Bar

I would have paid anything to be there…

I signed up just to see if it's easier than how I currently have been handling that scenario.  It will be interesting to see how it handles (1) Whether or not I currently receive that channel and (2) how it handles one off, ie not series, recordings. 

Also, I'm not sure if I shared these or not, but I know I've told the Director about these…

Best under $50 in ear headphones I've used with my Android Device.  I backed them on indiegogo a while back and they have been well worth it.  Now available on Amazon:

A solid 4 hours of web surfing, and not a single ad has lit up nor has the Chrome Extension.

If I get home and my DVR has a bunch of Ro-Co's on it, we're having words….

what's a Ro-Co?

ro-co = rom-com = romantic comedy, AKA a chick-flick?

(and smackie, act tough all you want, but don't tell me there aren't already 12+ rom-coms on your DVR…)

Princess Bride
