How to go down the stairs
Apr 18th
Sophie likes to spend a lot of time on the stairs. Mostly she sleeps on them but she’s also been known to stay on one of the steps and then watch us through the banister. It’s kind of weird, but no where near as weird as this cat’s activies on the stairs:
This and That

Two consecutive posts about politics is enough. How’s about some random ramblings?
First up, if you enjoy playing Tetris, than you need to check out First Person Tetris. It seems pretty straight forward, until you have to turn a piece, that it becomes pretty trippy.
Next up, Google Buzz was released this week; I’ve not yet made up my mind about it. Right now, it seems a bit invasive; I like having to sign in to Twitter separately to use it. Having people see my updates or what not right in my inbox seems a bit too personal. Plus, there are people on my contact list that I have no interest in sharing my updates with. It might prove to be a good tool, but for now I’ve turned it off.

S let me know about People of Public Transit last night and we killed ourselves laughing at this video. You know the Asian lady means business when she takes her purse off of her shoulder.

The internets at work have gone on complete lockdown of late and its driving me crazy. Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and YouTube have always been blocked as long as I’ve been there. I could care less about Facebook or MySpace as I logged off of FB a year ago and was never on MS. But every so often someone will send a funny clip that’s hosted on YouTube or there’s a trending topic I’d like to follow on Twitter but I can’t get to either because they’re blocked. That wasn’t so bad because there were other sites to check out. That is, until recently.
The last few weeks have seen a wide variety of sites and pictures blocked. In addition to the social networking sites being denied, these have also been added to the list:
I am going to ask that the last one be given a reprieve as I use it often when sending large files to people outside our organization. We do have FTP sites set up, but they’re horrible and are down more often than not.

Today was an exceptionally long day at work with the rest of the week not looking that much better. In lieu of an actual post, I present a few items that have made their way to my inbox lately and have made me chuckle.
