Midspot

I’ve noticed something over the last few years that may not bother many people but it drives me nuts.

I have a certain way the toilet paper roll gets “hung”. The paper must be delivered from the bottom. A trait that was instilled in me since youth to stop the cat from unraveling the roll while unattended.

Whenever I go to put a new roll in the holder. It never fails, it is placed in the wrong way once I “un-stick” the end of it. Why is that? You would think it would be a 50/50 chance but the odds are much greater, I would say somewhere around 90/10.

Does this bother you also? Am I the only one this happens to?

13 Greatest Horror Movies. Ever!

1. THE SHINING (1980)
PLOT: Daddy goes crazy and wields an axe while his family is trapped in a haunted hotel in Colorado.
THOUGHTS: They don’t make horror movies like THE SHINING anymore. Hell, they didn’t make horror movies like THE SHINING before. Stanley Kubrick’s masterpiece, based on the equally frightening Stephen King novel, has a depth and intelligence that is lacking in most fright films. Of course it has its scary moments — some of the scariest in movie history — but it’s much more than a blood-and-guts thriller. At its heart, THE SHINING is about a middle-class family. And as it scares the hell out of you, it reveals that dark and dysfunctional side of the American family. Then there’s Jack Nicholson. His performance as the axe-wielding maniac Jack Torrance is over-the-top yet riveting. Watching ol’ Jack chew up the scenery is most of the fun of watching the movie.

A woman hit her golf ball into the woods and found a frog caught in a trap.
The frog said to her, “If you release me from this trap, I will grant you
three wishes with the condition whatever you wish for, your husband will get
ten times more or better.”

For her first wish she wanted to be the most beautiful woman in the world.
The frog warned her, “You do realize that this wish will also make your
husband the most handsome man in the world, an Adonis, that women will flock
to him and…” The woman replied, “That will be okay.” So, pouf – she became
the most beautiful woman in the world.

For her second wish, she wanted to be the richest woman in the world. The
frog said, “That will make your husband the richest man in the world, and he
will be ten times richer than you and…” The woman said, “That will be okay,
because what is mine is his, and what is his is mine.” So, poof, she became
the richest woman in the world!

The frog then inquired about her third wish, and she answered, “I’d like a
mild heart attack.

Attila the Hun:
One of the most notorious villains in history, Attila’s army had conquered
all of Asia by 450 AD-from Mongolia to the edge of the Russian Empire-by
destroying villages and pillaging the countryside.
How he died: He got a nosebleed on his wedding night.
In 453 AD, Attila married a young girl named Ildico. Despite his reputation
for ferocity on the battlefield, he tended to eat and drink lightly during
large banquets. On his wedding night, however, he really cut loose,
gorging himself on food and drink. Sometime during the night he suffered a
nosebleed, but was too drunk to notice. He drowned in his own blood and was
found dead the next morning.

I have always been a huge fan of the classic prints that are displayed around town (Ground Round, my dentist’s office, etc) and always wanted to see more than what was displayed.

I found out through my dentist that Masseth (sp?) Photography was the business in town that is selling these prints. Now we can all enjoy the collection from the comfort of our own computers:

In addition to setting up a compromised computer to relay spam, one
example of malicious software also installs Kaspersky Lab’s antivirus
program to get rid of competing malicious software.

I guess this takes the war on malware to a new level.

Introducting ChatterBlocker,
the PC software that uses digital audio technology to mask
the sound of speech and other distractions so you
can
stay focused in any environment.

ChatterBlocker does not use noise-cancellation.
Instead it masks unwanted conversations with a soothing blend
of
nature sounds, music and background chatter.

The goal is to render speech less intelligible,
because intelligible speech is often the most distracting
sound in
the workplace.

Sad that it has gotten this bad in corporate America, but here is the link none the less…
