Disconnected

For some reason I have dropped off the face of the earth, at least in terms of my cell phone anyway. More than usual the "Looking for Signal" screen is showing up. I don't know what I could have done to piss technology off, but for some reason technology cant coexist with life in this happy little corner of the world that I call home.

Happy Halloween by the way.

What did I do you ask? Well since nobody could call me or send text messages I wound up not having any plans. I handed out candy. In the 2 hours and 15 minutes that I left the outdoor lights on I had only one group of trick or treaters.

Lets review the stats:

Light on: 2.25 hours.
Groups of trick or treaters: 1

That's something like 0.45 groups of trick or treaters per hour.

How can the Halloween of 2007 fail me so greatly?

I blame the cell phone, and all those other pieces of plastic in my life. Thanks iPod, you've been a real help.

One and a Half Cents Worth

In my freezer there's this ice pack called the "Alaskan Ice Substitute" or something along the lines of that. This gets me thinking, why the hell do Alaskans need to substitute ice? That's like having a "Miami Sand Substitute."

Imminent Disaster

Doesn't anybody realize that in 7,993 years all the computers will think it is the year zero instead of the year 10,000? They really need to adjust for those looming five digit years. Lest people think that time is starting all over. For that they will need to bring back baby Jesus and everything. I am just not assured that the world is ready.

My mind is politely absurd lately.
