But I'm intrigued now, so I may go.
The GE guys had actually bought caution tape to use in some sort of prank on him. They wouldn't tell me what they were going to do.
Once I got the card, I told them they couldn't touch him and they told me I was too nice.
Oh, and he's now a fan of the pen tool.
It's probably not a good idea to ask me to spot you while you try to bench press 215lbs.
No worries, I didn't kill him, but my arms hurt.
While watching LA Ink last night I thought I saw a commercial for the new caveman series... or so I thought, the commercial was like a bad high school home movie of drunk cavemen at a party pointing you to cavemanscrib.com.
All I can say is I hate that effect where you grab the corner of a page and they want you to pretend like you're reading a magazine. Stop it... even if you know how it works it doesn't.
I'd never seen this commercial before, but it appears the sites been around a long time. Which makes me wonder why the hell I saw it.
There Should Be More PSA's Like This One

Damn. I worked at Medeco for about 9 - 10 months helping convert their product catalog to digital files while I was in college. I remember thinking it was so cool when I was watching Law & Order once and they mentioned Medeco locks and how they were pick-proof.
Hope they fix this...
That is where I almost choked on the sip of water I had just taken.
This could lead to trouble... ;)
"Listen, not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent - I don't care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator."
Can't fear the escalator if you make it look like a toy. Although, it is kinda pretty.

I have never read a Harry Potter book - but I have seen the movies and I enjoy them.
I don't know if this is new or just new to me, but I loved it. I haven't had the time to watch all of them, but I'll get around to it.
p.s. It's about 8 minutes long...
To the person who was looking for the "giraffe headed-pig photo:"
If you ever find it, I hope you come back and post a link because I'm intrigued... and I couldn't find it either.
So I had to photoshop a scoreboard this morning. One of our clients wanted to put an ad in the local high school's sports program because they just finished building the new stadium.
And no lie, I just had an argument about what the scoreboard said. I showed it to our freelancer and she didn't think that having it say that the home team was on the 3rd down with 10 yards to go in the 4th quarter was a good idea because it shows that they didn't get very far. And I actually let myself be sucked into an argument about a hypothetical game. By the way, the home team is winning by two touchdowns, so I think they'll win the game no matter what.
I think I need to take a 15 minute break.
I can't help it - it's ridiculous and he has a British accent.
Saw the new AT&T commercial for their new broadband card. There's a British guy in a hole and in the middle of a lake demonstrating how you can now get internet anywhere. I laughed so hard.
I need to figure out a way to record these commercials because it's not on YouTube yet as far as I can tell.
I suppose I'm not the targeted demographic which seems to be young males, maybe that's why it freaks me out.
More here as they have a youtube account specifically for the campaign.
One of my favorite bands just "fired" their drummer.
This is an odd development. Although, their announcement to their fans was very nicely written... even if the PR people did tend toward the melodramatic. Era? Spiritual member? The cause? Really?
See what y'all think.
It is with a sad and heavy heart that we are announcing the band's extremely difficult decision to part ways with our longtime percussionist, and founding member of Carbon Leaf, Scott Milstead.
It has been a long, rewarding road full of memorable shows and great times making music together, but the time has come for some changes that we're confident will lead to greater happiness and fulfillment for all 5 of us going forward.
Scott is our brother and we love him dearly. He is forever a spiritual member of Carbon Leaf who has devoted his life and passion for music to the cause, and we are thankful for an unforgettable era.
We know this is a shock to the people that make Carbon Leaf possible - the fans - and we ask for your continued support and enthusiasm for the band as we look forward to envisioning Carbon Leaf for the road ahead.

Heard about this on a local morning show - best part was that the parents have used the stain to help discipline their children.
With all the crap they feed chickens now - wait, you know, forget that. Knowing my luck I'd open the egg and find a two-headed chicken.
Great, now I've grossed myself out...

This Thing Just Scared The Hell Out Of Me

New claims that Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper contains a hidden image of a woman holding a child are provoking a storm of interest on the internet.The figure allegedly appears when the 15th Century mural painting is superimposed with its mirror image, and both are made partially transparent.

Cingular/At&T has a new version of the "Battle" commercial.
At first I didn't like it - but then I saw it again last night and I've changed my mind... it's as awesome as the first.
If I find it I'll post it.
I also can't find the new back-to-school Best Buy commercials which I want to share because they are great. As you can tell, I watch a lot of TV and unfortunately YouTube is not cooperating with me to bring you all the commercials I get to see.
