If You Don't Watch Tosh.0

You might as well be supporting terrorism. This has got to be the best show on TV. We just saw Daniel's stand-up last week and we were not let down. Shows get cancelled way too quick these days, so do your part people. Watch Tosh.0 on Comedy Central. If you don't laugh, we shouldn't be friends anyway.

For a sneak peek of why its so great:

So I'm new around these Blogger parts and cannot for the life of me get that address to become a link. ::sigh::

You Might As Well Find Out Early On...

I am a pretty gigantic fan of the University of Southern California. I may or may not have orchestrated an informal campaign for Pete Carroll to be president in 2008. I may or may not count down the days until the opening game. You'll never know.

I think it is important that you know this because there is a slight (read: substantial) chance that you will see a lot of USC links this fall as the Trojans march to Pasadena and I wanted you to know why.

That being said, this is a great video and demonstrates why if some kid says he doesn't want to play for USC football, it's not because he doesn't want to; it is because he hasn't been invited. This is straight fun and with a great message to boot!

A Slow Start Indeed

Not exactly a running start on the ol' blog, but I think of a lot of things away from the computer, so I'm going to have to start updating from my BB.

One of my favorite things to have up as a gchat status message is an online typing test. I spend 8+ hours per day behind a computer and consider myself a fairly efficient typer. We all do. That is why it is impossible for someone to NOT take the exam and then want to compare notes. Alas, this is my go-to because it offers multiple tests and gives scores for wpm and for accuracy (you can go back and change mistakes as you go if you'd like).

Right now you're dying to see how well you'd do, right? I know you are. I want to see how good I can do.

Have at it.

Here Goes Nothing...

So I have a penchant for useless information. I also have the insatiable urge to back up every fact with a web site link. Just because I can. Google can always find the answer. I have faith. I'm always stumbling across a great link or fact or recipe and was looking for an outlet to keep them all together. And here we are. As an aside, I think nearly every name is currently in use by blogger. I tried to shorten the name of this blog, to no avail. Glad you could make it- even if you did have to type a lot of characters.
