COOL video site

Just found this awesome video site. Flash required. It’s fullscreen (press “f” to toggle) and has several different categories of videos. Hover your mouse at the bottom of the screen to see the tabbed list of videos. Some great ones. The picture below is a computer representation of Claire de Lune by Debussy. Cool stuff.

Now in Technorati

TechnoratiIn an effort to make my blog more public (eek) I’ve created a Technorati profile. One of the requirements to verify that I own this blog (and who besides me would even WANT this blog. 🙂 ) is to post something containing some special html. So here it is. In all it’s glory.

Jackass in Mountain View paper

So I was getting my usual thursday sandwich today at this great corner deli I love and they have copies of the local Mountain View newspaper on several of the tables. While waiting for my lunch I was perusing the paper and on page 3 of the paper they had a topless woman!!! wha? HAH. Just kidding (wish I wasn’t).

Truthfully, they had an area where a question was posed to several people and their response and picture were posted. The question in today’s paper? I don’t remember it word for word but let’s just say it went like this…

“Were you suprised by the way that Steve Irwin, The Crocodile Guy, died?”

4 of the 5 people were nice saying how sad it was. They weren’t surprised since it can be a dangerous job. Then there’s the 5th person I would like to name “Waste of Greymatter”. WOG had this to say… (again, not word for word but the sentiment is right)

“I’m not surprised so much as amused. I mean who get’s killed by a harmless creature like that”

AMUSED!!!???!?!! WTF!!!! Stop that person from procreating. PLEASE!!

Jackass!

Cisco is killing the economy today!!

AND the environment! It’s holding an employee meeting today at Shoreline Amphitheatre. Now, I enjoy a good all-hands employee meeting. I’ve been to a few myself, back in the heyday of the dotcom boom. We even had one at Great America. That was fun. There was this “Mission Impossible” theme (which isn’t as bad as that sounds) and a comedian, oh oh oh, and GUY KAWASAKI as a speaker. THAT kicked ass!!!! But I digress.
