Ever needed to go to a web page only to be road-blocked by an insipid form with a million questions? Ever needed to test your own web forms and wanted a tool to quickly fill out a bunch of fields and pick a bunch of options for you? If you use Chrome, you're in luck. — Continue reading »
Star Trek on YouTube
📆 July 11, 2010
The fact that YouTube has a number of the original Star Trek series is pretty cool for geeks like me who grew up on the series. This one below shows an upload date of over 43 years ago.

Rocking Warren Buffett
📆 July 8, 2010
This one is a couple of months old but I just stumbled on it and it left me pretty speechless.

I just happened to find my Yahoo check in a — Continue reading »

You won’t be able to log in while maintenance is underway, but your account data and messages are safe. Unfortunately, we can’t predict exactly — Continue reading »
Evangelist Exonerates BP
📆 June 26, 2010
So apparently the oil rig explosion and the subsequent oil leak wasn't BP's fault at all. According to the evangelist, Hal Lindsey, god did that to avenge the softening of US support for Israel. Guess that clears everything up for BP. Even better, BP should use that fact as it defends itself against the mountain — Continue reading »
