Everyone Likes Their Email Search
One thing that sucks about gmail is, when I use the search feature, I have to keep clicking “Older” before I get to go all the way to the end. What a waste of time, I have to do this all the time when I need logins that are given with initial emails. Maybe I should memorize logins, or save them all in my browser - I rather use email search (kind of joking).
In the diagram below I made my search and then I -
1. Pressed “Older”
2. Pressed “Older”
3. Pressed “Older”
4. Pressed “Oldest”
Bam
5. Finally at the end.


*Its quite possible I could change a setting and solve this problem.

Starbucks To Slow Growth
With there already being instances of Starbucks across the street from Starbucks, maybe this was to be expected.
I have seen the occurrence of a Starbucks across the street from a Starbucks in Vancouver. I read the reasoning being one of the locations allowed smoking. For some of the other instances of closeness in proximity its just perplexing.

Google News and Picture Matching
Sometimes you get some entertaining pics with your headlines. Its the fact that Google News is automated that makes these surprises good fun.
A picture of Soda Popinski, matched quite well.

Top off, I censored for the kids.

Find The Communist States
You can easily see which states are beginning to see Marxist movements. I wanted to see what type of voter turn out there was yesterday. So I looked at the number of voters compared to registered voters in the five states with the largest population. (joking about the communism - for that we would also have to look at registered voters to state population - joking again)

Some may ask -
This would have been great to put in an html table, why an image? Because I am on my way to watch sports. And yes the table may have been faster to make. The best work is not always found on your blog.

Joost The Alleged Next Great Video Site

Back in July, I got into the Joost beta testing program, but I was to busy to do much with it, or it was never that great (cannot say because I was only with it - trying it - a short period of time). The other day I was wondering what’s going on with Joost. I had thought it might gain great traffic, but it has not been much of a force - maybe its still getting its feet.

NASA Almost Guarantees the Hostile Invasion of Earth
When aliens hit the scan button on their radio searching for a good song and pick this up, it won’t be long before the death star laser beam is fired at earth.
Or maybe this will be like the song in the movie Mars Attacks! and we will rid the universe of life.
Beatles have some good songs lets not send this one. Sure the name is clever - that might get us a last meal. Enjoy the super bowl, probably the last.
