The NBA

This (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/070223) is probably one of the funniest page 2 articles I’ve *EVER* seen.  (Courtesy of Mr. Bill Simmons of ESPN).

 

I didn’t know that F-minus-minus-minus, F-infinity-minus and G were real grades J

 

Go Wolves; KG Rocks!

Truth in advertising --or-- Archer Farms Margherita pizza dissapoints

Ok, I know frozen pizza is frozen pizza, but this is totally ridiculous. I LOVE margherita pizzas, but will *NEVER* buy this one again unless Archer Farms decides to improve the recipe and quality of this product.

Why is MSN IM such a memory pig?

I had Task Manager up checking memory usage and noticed the msnmsgr.exe using roughly 55MB, which suprised me.



So, I terminated and restarted the process and it started up to 33MB!



It seems like this app should use a smaller footprint...

The Amazing Message Plant! (and Monkey phone call)

I heard about the The Amazing Message Plant! on the 93X half-a**ed morning show on my drive in this morning. Right now, there are only stock messages, but when they get the custom message feature added, can you even imagine the possibilities?

In a similar genre, Glen was showing us http://www.monkeyphonecall.com/. This site is powered by actual SM2C technology "(simulated monkey to consumer)" to make the magic happen. Again, quite amazing :)

I hope this brightens your day as it has mine :)
