One of my favorite things EVER.
More Christian comics from the seventies here.
I remember that time I sat around on Halloween waiting for The Great— wait, that was something else…
You need to watch the SEC

And that, sports fans, is why college football is, and shall always remain, a joke compared to MLB, NFL and NCAA Basketball.
The Ole Miss v. Auburn game today was epic, one of the best football games OF ALL TIME.
There are also some epically bad SEC games, but the BIG10 is just awful. And while I love the game atmosphere, the “playoff product” we are given is complete bullshit.
Also, I think it two weeks ago when the LSU vs. Georgia game was ruined by a couple of flag happy officials breaking out the no-fun-rule to piss on some 19-year-old kid’s day. And for what? Celebrating what should have been a game winning touchdown.
Most SEC vs SEC games are pretty good.
The “excessive celebration” rule should only be applied if someone beheads a member of the other team… otherwise, these are a bunch of kids playing a game, let them enjoy themselves…

An Actual Phone Conversation with an Actual Blockbuster Employee
Me: Do you have Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds?
Him: Would that be under The Birds?
Me: Um… yes, probably…
Him: (checking) Is it an older movie?
Me: (slams head into desk) Is Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds an older movie? Yes. Yes it is.
Him: Well we have one under drama, but it doesn’t say if it’s Alfred Hitchcock?
Me: Does it say if it’s in stock?
Him: Yes, it is…
Me: …
Him: …
Me: Could you maybe take a look at the box on the shelf? Maybe it would say Hitchcock on the box? If you have it, I’d like to rent it if you’ll hold it for me.
Him: Oh sure! (as if I had suggested a very creative solution to this quandary)
Me: Thanks… (waits)
Him: Yeah, we’ve got a copy of it. Alfred Hitchcock, is that the right one?
Me: Yes. That’s the Hitchcock.

@wifeoTJ just died laughing at this.
I hope you’re happy.
Lindsay, looks like you’ve been promoted…
Microsoft ad:
“Windows 7 is here! My favorite feature? SEARCH. Searching for files of all kinds has never been easier. Use the START button!” according to “A Twitter User.”
Which Twitter user, you ask? That would be: @baldwin_ng
Oh, guess what? There’s also a Baldwin Ng who works in Product Management and Marketing in Seattle, Washington.
WHAT A COINCIDENCE.

Luomapalooza 2009 (reblogged for the day shift)
We are hosting a party for our Twitter/Tumblr friends on Saturday, November 21st.
It will take place at our house, located in SE Ohio (about 2 hrs south of Columbus, 2.5 hrs east of Cincinnati, 4 hrs from Pittsburgh, 1 hr north of Huntington, WV).
There are a few hotels in the area, but those who are willing to make due with couches, air-mattresses, sleeping bags, etc. can spend the night here if you wish.
Those who are interested, please send an email to luomapalooza2009@luomat.net.
UPDATE: Yes, children are invited. The Boy will be here and Baby Wineman as well. As long as you don’t mind them being around adult beverages and the occasional rogue tongue.
I call this one: “Choices and Consequences at CVS.”
Notes and larger sizes available.

Dangers of the Geek (In)attention Span
- Receive email “Can you post this file to the website?”
- Download file
- Try to upload the file using ‘scp’ and realize that it’s asking you for the password. Which you don’t remember.
- Find password
- Upload file to temporary spot on server
- Setup ssh to allow you to access the account without a password
- Configure Dropzone so you can drag and drop files to upload
- Get distracted and go to something else
- Go to lunch and clear out your email on your iPhone while waiting
- Re-read the original email from step 1 and realize that you never actually put the file where it needs to go
- Write this Tumblr post
- Put the file where it needs to go [#TODO]
This is by far the worst thing ever posted on Twitter.
