Well, which is it?

But…he said they’re NOT missing a spider…I’m confused.

And another thing: how the hell is this news?

When your reflection tries to kill you

I don’t know - in the heat of the chase, I imagine there’s all kinds of things that could trip you up. The best solution would probably be…that’s right - vampire cops!

Bit#@!

Category: Random

My buddy, O, got a sketchy email through his online dating service. This chick sent out the most desperate email talking about how she wanted to settle down with some nice young man like O. The stuff she wrote sounded like a giant scam. Today, she sent out a letter telling O how sad her life had become and how she was short on money and was not going to be able make her mortgage payment.

Just as O suspected, she turned out to be a scammer with a history of scamming in Sacramento area.

Davis Turkey Trot

Category: Random

So, what do you think, Abram? Want to do the Davis Turkey Trot with me this November 22, 2008? It’s a 5k (3.1 miles) through davis along the greenbelt. It should be pretty fun.

My goals while running in 5k:

1. Beat my previous time. Duh.

2. Achieve a good “runner’s plus/minus.” What’s a runner’s plus/minus. It’s a way I devised to keep track of how well you are doing during a race. First, during the first five minutes of the race, find a good pace that you are comfortable maintaining. A good rule of thumb is to run at an intensity that almost prevents you from being able to talk. After five minutes when you and everyone else in the race has settled into their pace, you will find yourself running with “similarly situated runners.” From this point on, keep track of the number of runners that you pass, as well as the number of runners that pass you. Try to keep this number in the positive.

3. Also, I like to set goals for the finish line. As I get close to the finishing area, I try to pass at least one person before finishing.

The Vista-capable debacle

Hmm - this reminds me of the whole housing and stock market crises. The hard-working people and companies (like HP in the case below) acted in good faith and did what they were supposed to do. Then standards were relaxed, every “Tom, Dick, and Harry” could get a house (or get ‘Vista Capable’ stickers on their computers), and then everything blows up in their faces. EVERYONE, including those that acted with integrity, got screwed.
