I’m Still Alive!!!

Oct 17, 2007

I’ve survived another Bosses’ Day.  Every year the staff makes all of the bosses a big feast.  They bust their asses and really go all out.  However, I tend to piss off at least one of them everyday.  I worry that they’ll poison my lunch in revenge.  Whew!

Now where’s that fucking letter I dictated?!?


Little Kids and Computers

Oct 15, 2007

Having grown up around computers, I think its important for children to be exposed to them. At around 18 months, we let my son play with the keyboard and mouse. He didn’t quite get it at first, but loves it.

Wifey and I got this product, Giggles Baby Shapes from Giggles Software. Basically, there are big colorful pictures with moving shapes and pleasing sounds. If he presses a key, any key, something happens on screen. He loved it. They have some new titles now.

We’ve bought him a Disney and a program called Jumpstart. He loves the programs, but keeps messing with the keyboard macros and dials. Kinda takes the fun out of it for him when the screen reverts back to the desktop unexpectedly. So I came across this great article to make your PC more toddler friendly. Between a kid friendly keyboard and some controls on your desktop, a little bugger can really have some harmless fun.


Capital punishment is not used enough

James P. Colliton, 42, was a successful family man. This hard working tax lawyer for Cravath Swaine and Moore was a married man with 5 kids. He worked in New York and made a cool $500k.

Turns out good ole Jim had a naughty side too. See story here and here and here. See Jim liked the ladies. He liked ‘em young and liked ‘em vulnerable. This model citizens paid two girls (one under 15) and their mother to have sex. He had another minor as well. Jim was a back door man too. If you gonna roll that way, might as well go for broke.

Well our buddy Jim pled guilty to two felonies and a prostitution related charge and was sentenced to 2 years. Jim was expected to be released already after 19 months of time served! What the hell? At a minimum, corrections should go Abner Louima his ass.

Our friends on Wall Street have a slightly more reserved take on this story. They should, they’re classy.


Damn it’s late!

Oct 13, 2007

Hello. I know it’s late. This is when I get my “me” time. My 2+ year old son (the greatest kid in the world, trust me you’d think so too if you met him) finally went to bed after a night of baseball, milk, and mac and cheese. Wifey, 9 months and 13? days pregnant (she’s due Monday!) finally passed out after endless backrubs and trips to the bathroom during the commercials a Bridezilla/House Hunters/whatever the fuck is on We! marathon (fuckin’ DVR).

Just flipped on HBO. Damn Sonya Walger’s got great tits! It’s a shame she always plays an uptight bitch. Makes me wonder how good I really have it. I mean are most wives that mental? Check out Mind of a Married Man (funny) and Tell Me You Love Me (boring) for some examples. But those tits!

Finally, watched SNL from last week. Oh Chevy you had me at “not” but lost me when the rust shows! I love ya man, but not since Christmas Vacation.

For the record, Ann Coulter has finally lost her marbles! I hate that bitch. The fact that she pisses me off, well pisses me off.

At the rate the season is heading, Notre Dame will finally be in the Big 10 (as in 1-11).
