Well Fake Steve Jobs, you finally earned a link from me.

Thanks for the chuckle…

Borg is getting desperate on Vista

I’m a Chevrolet Corvette!

You’re a classic – powerful, athletic, and competitive. You’re all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do.

Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.

Microsoft’s slogan should be:

It Just Don’t Work

And if it does, we will disable it with Windows Genuine Dis-Advantage.

Your mileage won’t vary…

BTW, if anyone has sucessfully gotten Office Live Communications Server 2007 to work in a multi-domain environment. let me know. Specifically the “Front End Server” won’t start without a hexadecimal error message (0xC3EC79E8) that does not contain any clues as to why it does not work. Apparently my “Rear-End Server” is fine. Which is the same place Bill G can shove this product…

But if you have an answer let me know.

Yeah, I didn’t think so…

Way too funny not to watch!

Anyone else find it amusing that these guys offer a Mile High Club flight?

I’ve never actually been in (on?) a hot air balloon, but I was under the impression that it would be tight quarters to do such a thing and right beside the pilot?

Google released a cool new tool for us smart phone users.

Google Maps with My Location (Beta)

I played around with it on my Blackberry 8830 and it was pretty close. I would say only about 6 blocks off, which really surprised me that it even worked in North Dakota to begin with…

Too bad you can’t use this to find someone else by phone number.

On second thought maybe that would not be such a good thing…

The truth of the matter is most men do not mind providing for their
children and I am willing to bet if they were given a choice in how
their money was spent, they’d probably shell out even more than what
was required. What men have a strong aversion to paying, on the other
hand, is Mother Support. It’s pretty fucking hard not to get
bitter about the $2000 a month you’re paying when your kid shows up for
biweekly visits in a pair of pants that are 2 inches too short and in
desperate need of a haircut…while his Mother is sporting a new pair of
fake boobs.

This one paragraph pretty much says it all. I have to admit I agree. I have friends (and readers) on both side of the fence, but it does usually come down to money being spent wrongly. I like how she pushes the notion of equal custody, which is something that I think should be awarded more often in some cases (of two capable (financially and mentally) parents).

That’s all I’m going to say as to not risk offending any readers…

Go read the rest if you are interested and remember, it’s written by a woman.
