The Rookie Blogger is holding the first of many contests to help build up a name and traffic to his new blog. Mike’s fairly new to the game. He’s recently discovered the world of money-making on the internet and is somewhat chronicling his venture. Part of his plan is to give back to his readers [...]
So let’s see, what’s going on in the world of Jade? Well not really a damn thing, but I’m bored and feel like rambling, so here goes! I saw Jamey Monday night after work. We almost literally ran into each other at Wal Mart. Since he left Lowe’s we pretty much don’t see each other [...]
Writer’s Strike Deadline is Midnight Tonight I’ll only summarize to say that basically, Writer’s Guild of America is ready to go on strike. They want a bigger cut of DVD sales–I think that’s the basic gist of everything. Tonight is the deadline for an agreement to be made, or they’ll be on strike. This means [...]
So NBC has done away with their YouTube channel to start their own site–hulu.com. You can read more about it on their blog. I’m all in favor of the concept of hulu. It looks as though there will be full episodes available, as well as talk of some full length films. My annoyance lies in [...]
[Audio clip: view full post to listen] I never really listened to Snow Patrol’s You Could Be Happy until we started playing it in Lowe’s. [Apparently we've now switched to a pretty awesome playlist. I love it!] I recognized it enough to know it was a song I had on my iPod, so I took [...]
If you ever need a laugh, might I suggest a YouTube search? Just type in screaming frog and go to town. I laughed until I snorted. It’s so bizarre that they can make such noises! Here’s one to get you started.
Last week Kristi brought it to my attention that I was missing a few Death Cab songs–how, I’m really not sure. She sent me Tiny Vessels and man…I was really missing out by not having this one. Really, it’s just so tragically beautiful. [I can't seem to configure the way this template handles the 'more' [...]
Oh Ebay–the joy you bring me! My external harddrive went a little crazy on me earlier this evening, as per usual, so I decided to browse Ebay again for a replacement. I found a superthin, new, 80gb external for around $50 after shipping. I went ahead and bought it. I currently have about 50gb on [...]
Generally speaking, I’m not a huge fan of ice cream. I like it plenty, and I won’t hesitate to dig in, but it’s not something that goes through my mind when I’m craving something. Lately though, I’ve been on a huge ice cream kick, and I believe I’ve settled on my flavor. Rocky Road does [...]
So of course Ryan’s always gone when parties pop up, so I don’t really feel like I should go. I’m ‘theatre by association.’ I ‘know’ most of the people I’d see, but not really enough to have a grand old time at a party. That’s not good enough for the roommates and neighbors though. They [...]
