U-Haul. Ugh.
Posted at 12:18 pm | Filed Under Rants
Mama got a new place and last weekend was time to move. We had plenty of hands lined up, so it was off to rent a truck. U-Haul seemed the easy solution, as there’s a U-Haul shop very close to where I work. (Enterprise, Ryder, Penske, Budget — all either out of [...]
Just when we thought the end was near

The headline: “Sheehan considers challenge to Pelosi.” Link here.
That’s what we need: Cindy Sheehan in office.
To quote Al Borland, “I don’t think so, Tim.”
Smoking while riding a motorcycle
Posted at 9:38 pm | Filed Under Rants
I see this activity pretty frequently. As a non-smoker, I have to say this just looks weird. When you’re moving, does the increased air movement around the cig cause it to burn away faster? Is that somehow good for the smoker? Or is it wasteful? Does motion relieve the need to flick ashes away? Perhaps [...]
Tech support, and courtesy calls
Posted at 8:29 pm | Filed Under Rants
Okay, so I’ve been working for a while on setting up email addresses for a client, using their domain name. No problem, right? Sure. Getting the addresses set up was a breeze — two phone calls, and it’s done. I received confirmation that the accounts are set up, and I went [...]

Later-exposed truth: the Troll didn’t roll in until after six this morning.
Well-known underlying truth: [...]

Oh, by the way…

“Your bag was among those selected for physical inspection.”
By the way, we bungled up your zipper, fingered your wife’s undies, and just plain didn’t put things back where we found them. Have a nice day!
Grrr….
Say _what?_

Fifth paragraph: “No one on the creative side or the business side wants to make commercials intrusive, but we do need to commercialize efficiently so viewers can afford to get free television.”
Free television? Um, if television is free, then why the hell do so many of us receive cable/satellite bills for [...]
This week’s frustration

Buying Claritin-D.
Thanks to the sorry-ass meth heads, it now takes me (and a pharmacist) ten minutes to buy my allergy meds. I had to pull a ticket from the shelf (like buying a printer from Office Max), take it to the pharmacy desk, hand over my driver’s license, and fill out a form. What info [...]

… can’t I insert a picture into a posting?
Oh, yeah, I know. It’s because I dont know enough about WordPress yet.
