Pass The Milk

I told Trey that I was interested in helping with his project. So today, I created something. Here it is.

T.H.W.G.

WHAT’S THE GOOD WORD?
TO HELL WITH GEORGIA!!!
HOW ‘BOUT THEM DOGS?
PISS ON ‘EM!!!

Congratulations Paul Johnson and the rest of the JACKET NATION. Georgia Tech snaps their 7 game losing streak with a 45-42 win over the Bulldogs.

Senior fullback at Georgia was quoted as saying, “We don’t want to be the senior class that lost to Tech.” Well, sorry bud. You are.

KTHX[GIVING]BAI

My first video entry.

My blog has an 8MB limit on video, my Flickr account has a 90 second max time limit on videos, so my only other option was to post it on Youtube. That’s probably a better decision anyway (at least over my blog hosting it) because they get to deal with the bandwidth.

WordPress Comment Blacklist

Here’s my current list of banned words for this blog. The use of any of these words, regardless if they are apart of a larger word, will cause your comments to not make it through the filter. There are a few other features enabled in the filter as well, like the use of multiple links, that will get your comment caught up. But if you’re registered, you might be able to get away with some of the bad things. I don’t really know.

There were lots more words, but I cut some of them out based on the filtering rule that will mark comments that say “4u7″ since “4u” is on the list. There was no need to have larger words that contained the smaller words.

There are 112 in all, plus about 36 x-rated words that I’m not going to post publicly. (If you’re interested in them for use on your blog, or you’d like to help contribute more, just let me know.) This list is a combination of WordPress’s Spam Words and a few I’ve noticed while looking at the comments marked as spam for other reasons. I know that some of them are redundant, but I haven’t sat down and eliminated any yet.

Seventy-Five Cents

The Gun Show

I went to the Thrashers game on Friday. While walking to Philips Arena, we passed a few motorcycle cops. I walked up to one of them and said, “My friend bet my $5 that I wouldn’t come talk to you.” He proceeded to let me sit on his bike and take a picture with him so I “got my monies worth.”

What a great guy.

Direct Hit

I don’t know if I want to call this a loophole or an easter egg, but I’m almost positive that I’ve found something worth mentioning within the game of Minesweeper.

The lone squares that has been uncovered are never mines. I’ve done some extensive testing and I would be willing to bet that I’m correct. And by extensive testing, I mean I clicked that one square, saw that it wasn’t a mine, pushed the F2 key on the keyboard so a new game would load, and repeated. I did that for literally over 5 minutes without ever hitting a mine.

That being said, I would like to publicly say now that I have not researched my findings on the internet. Someone, somewhere, at some point may have already uncovered this and shared it with the world, but I am unaware of it at this point in time. And I plan to stay in the dark so I can feel like I was the first.

(Oh by the way, I’m the man at TW04.)

Call It Like It Is

The election is over and the blame game is already starting.

A lot of reports are surfacing about, well, for lack of better words, how stupid Sarah Palin is. Things that happened “off the record” are now being talked about. Things that happened behind closed doors with the campaign staff. Watch the video and decide for yourself.

Where’s Waldo?

Someone, Kevin, showed me a picture, on the ESPN website, the other day of the fans celebrating after Georgia Tech beat Florida State, 31-28, on November 1, 2008. (Man, seven commas. I’m still better.)

Can you find Waldo?

(Waldo = Charlie)

Computer Mirror

I don’t really know what I think about this. Watch the video first, then read what I have to say about it.

I think the idea behind it is really cool. It’s amazing actually.

Touch screen have been around for a while, as well as mirrors. I’ve seen coffee tables become touch screen computers, but never a mirror. I could think of a whole bunch of “practical” things to use it for. You could pick out clothes to wear with it. Women could match outfits and decide what to wear. But this could snowball into mirrortop PCs. (Yes. I just coined that phrase.) People send emails and phone/video conference while they’re getting ready. That just seems too stupid. Almost lazy. If you can’t budget your time better and you are so busy that you’re sending emails while trying to dress, you probably need a new job.

But all that crap isn’t what the video is about. Overall, I’d say it’s pretty cool. Being able to do visualizations and text on the mirror is NEATO.
