Marky’s Web Log

Ask anyone, that I team up with in their computer issues… I fight Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIN very hard.  Primarily due to the viral haven that can be found there.  I want to stress CAN.   Not that if you only stay on the site that you will get one… but rather if you find a tinyurl or any of those obfuscated Continue Reading »

This is awesome.  Tragic I don’t know that the kids that this is aimed at are going to completely understand it.  I can only hope they understand that GenX f’d up and we are trying to fix it.  Well most of us are.

As a long time Slashdot reader I have learned that Slashdot can have some very sensationalistic headlines. This one is by far one of the worst I have seen yet. Saturn has a giant ring around it? Really?

Saturn has rings? Nuh uh!

This music video is so fun, and they got the look and feel right. Just playing until there is no more time to play. Enjoy!

Apparently this is an old joke. I have never heard it but it made me laugh pretty hard.

A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts: “Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?”

The man below says: “Yes you’re in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field.”

“You must work in Information Technology,” says the balloonist.

“I do,” replies the man. “How did you know?”

“Well,” says the balloonist, “everything you have told me is technically correct, but it’s of no use to anyone.”

The man below says, “You must work in business as a manager.” “I do,” replies the balloonist, “but how did you know?”

“Well,” says the man, “you don’t know where you are or where you are going, but you expect me to be able to help. You’re in the same position you were before we met but now it’s my fault.”

This was a cute email I have never seen. So I decided to post it.

Side note: I have tried the laxative thing. $WIFE wasn’t very happy.

AMAZING SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES:

1. IF YOU’RE CHOKING ON AN ICE CUBE, SIMPLY POUR A CUP OF BOILING WATER DOWN YOUR THROAT. PRESTO! THE BLOCKAGE WILL INSTANTLY REMOVE ITSELF.

2. AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF WHEN SLICING VEGETABLES BY GETTING SOMEONE ELSE TO HOLD THE VEGETABLES WHILE YOU CHOP.

3. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE LADIES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY USING THE SINK.

4. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF AND BLEED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE IN YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE A TIMER.

5. A MOUSE TRAP PLACED ON TOP OF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ROLLING OVER AND GOING BACK TO SLEEP AFTER YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON.

6. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU’LL BE AFRAID TO COUGH.

7. YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE – WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN’T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN’T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

8. REMEMBER – EVERYONE SEEMS NORMAL UNTIL YOU GET TO KNOW THEM.

9. IF YOU CAN’T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU’VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

No bull shit this really happened.

I am in the back yard b-s’ing with my $WIFE. Talking about nothing important, just enjoying the weather.

This is the chicken $WIFE caught.

$DOG is just walking around then out of no where $DOG goes absolutely ape. I mean hair is flying everywhere. I yell to tell the dog to shut the hell up. Then $WIFE goes over to see what $DOG is so upset about. Then $WIFE says “oh my $DEITY a chicken!” I say to $WIFE shut the hell up. I walk over to the area that $DOG is still going ape over. Sure enough, there is a flippin’ chicken. A real live black chicken.

These are the bonds I am referring to

$WIFE deftly catches the chicken. The Chicken went docile and all was well. Until we notice, the chicken has its legs tied together. What the hell is up with that? I don’t get why someone would tie the legs of a chicken together.

I love chicken. I love the taste. It is awesome. Treating animals like that before you kill them makes absolutely no sense. Were they trying to fatten it up?

I then called the local animal services center. We cut the bonds and they took the chicken.

Whether you find this story tragic or funny as hell I have to say yesterday was an odd day!

This was a great skate video, done for the art of skating not the promotion of anarchy.

Take a watch

not completely safe for work but definitely worth the watch.
