Avoid these guys, too

UPDATE: I’m not certain if Movielenses is a comment spam operation or if it’s an attempt to throw off my spam-prevention techniques.

Movielenses (they get no link from me, the filthy, comment-spamming bastards) looks to be a good service. Too bad they’re a bunch of filthy, comment-spamming bastards. I just had to delete an “advertisement” from my moderation queue from them. The might be a bunch of filthy, comment-spamming bastards. It’s unclear at this point, but they’re not leaving my blacklist until I’m sure.

Avoid these schmucks as well. I think my lack of sleep has put me in a “mood”.

Don’t buy from these guys

Add PriceRitePhoto to the list of online stores to never buy from. You’ll thank yourself for it later.

And not in the good way. I haven’t been sleeping much lately because of ongoing sinus issues that seem to be really kicking my butt this year. I think I’ve gotten a full night’s worth of sleep across the past two days and I’m exhausted.

I think I’ll pop some sleeping tablets tonight and crash way early.

Read this.

Yeah, because women can never be pedophiles. <sarcasm>

You know the first person to get one of these is going to get hammered with Vader jokes.

Inoperable Terran

Interesting. I’ve somehow made it onto Inoperable Terran’s blogroll.

In reviewing the site, it appears to be highly political. I suppose I’ve posted quite a bit on what I think has gone wrong in politics lately, but never imagined it would catch the eye of a political blog. Especially one that graces the blogrolls of such pundits as Wiz-Bang, iowa hawk and Cox & Forkum, among others. Most appear more “right” oriented, which baffles me even further since I’ve been fairly critical of the current administration.

However, I’m not one to question good fortune and I most certainly welcome the traffic. Maybe I’ll email Ian S. and see what he sees in me.

Wonderful…

One of our power users who is already pretty cranky with us over the configuration of our new cluster just sent in a service call. If anyone’s looking for me, I’ll be hiding under my desk…

Oreo

Posted by J.A.S.O.N. on 27 Nov 2005 | Tagged as: Babble


Everyone, say hello to Oreo. She’s our new Jack Russel terrier puppy coming to live with us in mid-December.

Crystal named her. She said the pup reminded her of an Oreo cookie because her head and butt were black and she was white everywhere else.

It’ll be nice to have another furrball in the house.
