widgets:
At my friend Hasser's recommendation, I've been fooling around with Yahoo! Widgets. And, now spent the past week trying to code my very own LLR desktop widget. No luck so far, but I haven't quite given up yet. I've got the design part down, but I'm still hung up on some java-junk.

iBox:
My super computer (aka "BAMF") is out-of-control. I've recently added a 512mb video card, and tricked out my mobo with 4gb RAM. But, my favorite new addition is the iBox by Thermaltake.



It's basically a drawer installed in the front of your tower to hold discs and various accessories. It's just so simple and obvious. I love it.

google:
I had a nice chuckle with the latest Google/MySpace meme. Instead of the morbid "was killed by" deadpool search, someone suggested searching for what you "need". So, I searched for "JL needs" and hilarity ensued. Here were the results:

JL needs to find a new formula.

If there is one thing JL needs more of, it is ORANGE cars!

JL needs to stop making 10000000000 muscle car castings and do some freaking research.

I'd love to see what all the cool kids come up with - drop a line in the comment box with yours.

My computer came with a cup holder. Now if I could only get one with a CD player I'll be set.

"Genevieve needs to move out of her apartment..."
This is so true.

"To come along on so many adventures, Madeline's dog Genevieve needs a good place to stay and this doggy carrier is just the right size. ..."
That just hurts.

OK, first with gimmick name:

"The Thrill needs..."

"...explaining."
"...for all wooden-coaster lovers..."
"...to be patient."

Bah. On to real-name goodness:

"Will needs..."
"...2 witnesses."
"...a lectern with a microphone."
"...to include clear instructions."
"...willing contributors."
"...to be part of a loving, committed marriage..."
"...guidance and support from the mind and heart..."

Ah, screw this! :-)
