Seen on Facebook: “_____ became a fan of Yelling at Inanimate Objects.” Is Scratchy on Facebook?
I have a problem with this fashion article. They did a good job recommending a red-and-white striped tube top, but then they had to go and say that it’s “easily layered under cardigans or hoodies.” NOOOOO! Tube tops are not meant to be “layered!” They are meant to be shown off! See, this is why I have to devote an entire month of the year to tube tops on the blog, to educate the public.
It’s gonna be a busy weekend for me… my affiliate websites have reached the point that I’m having to upgrade from the Deluxe hosting package to the Premium package on GoDaddy. This is the right kind of problem to have. I have so many exciting ideas to expand my sites… where were these ideas when it was 38 and raining outside? Or when I was unemployed for five months and had unlimited time to build sites? Anyway, I’ll be out this weekend, but I’ll likely have the MacBook or netbook with me, and will be working part of the time.
After I get everything in place, I’m going to teach it to my friend Danny who loaned me the book that inspired this recent round of ideas. Danny: “You mean there’s more to the Internet than forwarding 3 megabyte joke e-mails to everyone in my address book?” Yes, there is.
I wish Foursquare would do a better job removing duplicates in their system. I flagged “flying saucer dtown” as a duplicate two weeks ago, but it’s still showing up. There’s also “Kooky Canuck,” “kooky kanuck,” and “Kooky Camuk.”
@jesus just tweeted, “Not the kind of Friday morning I was expecting.” It’s going to be an interesting weekend to follow him on Twitter.
Plans for tonight: I’ll kick it off at happy hour at the Saucer, but after that, no idea.
