2014 is the year I am committing to automating the Wookie household finances as much as possible. At the beginning of 2013 I forced us to move to electronic calendaring (thanks google!). We are slowly moving into the future, as quickly as my internal infernal paranoia will allow us. I do plan on fully automating…

Nice cases! Now if only I had an RPi. The photos posted remind me of "Land Of The Giants" . The cables and connectors look HUGE by comparison to the Pi computer on the smaller cases.

No. Butt it does make me wanna re watch Bad Milo this weekend. Also of note...we have a rule in our house....nothing goes into ANY bodily orifices unless it has a handle exTEnding outside the boDy.

Or it could be that the SOB you hired to install the new front door a few years ago used short screws. I got a call from the wife one day a while back, telling me that the front door was partially off the hinges and wouldn't close at all. Fortunately I tend to be a screw hoarder. I had the right amount of screws…

The toilet in our house that gets heavy usage every day started up with a whining noise for a few seconds after you press the flush handle. I told the wife that it was singing to us because it was happy cause we are feeding it. Problem solved.

Frankly, it makes a certain (A-Hole) percentage of the "normies" and "skinnies" mad when us fat people have self esteem without them.

I had no idea who this goofball was until running across this article here. Looked him up. Sorry, I have no respect for the "I used to be a doctor, but now I am on TV" types. He stopped being a doctor when he became heavily involved in the media. If he isn't seeing patients of some kind full time, he isn't a…

Every cloud has a silver lining if you squint hard enough. :)

Dude. You've gotta watch Bad Milo. It's on Netflix streaming.

Maybe I'm getting too mellow in my old age.....but can't we all just be People ? Not straight, not gay, not transgendered, not bi, not lesbian, not anything.....just PEOPLE.

When a storm starts rolling in, go indoors! If you cannot, trees taller than you are better than nothing. If you have no other structures but do have a car nearby, get in it! And, don't sit on wet sand on the beach waiting for the storm to pass.

Meh. 160 bucks plus hours of my time? Nope.Nope.Nope. I just renewed my two year contract on two of our family's phones with ATT via Amazon. Price ? $00.01 each for Galaxy Mega 6.3 in black. Yes, a penny each. Awesome upgrade for the renewal I was going to do anyway.

Ummm..yeah. It's not a big secret that Google is taking over the world. Finally, after their work is complete, we will have a one-world government and get going on that warp drive project.

Not so much. I work in local govt. Someone walked in my office last month to see if I knew of anyone in IT that might still have a working Zip Drive to read a Zip Disk. IIRC we had a big PC rollout in 1999 or 2000 and Zip drive was standard on each one. I gave out with a hearty laugh. I actually DID run across a…

Forward Unto Dawn...we loved it. It wasn't about Master Chief. It was an interesting glimpse into the life of one of Halo's supporting characters.

For some reason, I am having a James Bond movie flashback. :)

Really ? Places still use reservoirs ? It's a manmade lake. Yuck, I'm not drinking out of it.

Solution:

Odd....my 2011 Kia Forte has a fairly sleek 7 inch built-in nav/stereo/cd/mp3/bkup cam display pretty well integrated into the dash. Frankly, it came with the car. We just wanted the moonroof. looks nicer than some of the much more expensive fancypants brands of cars in the comments.

Oooh Nice ! I am going to order several on payday. And, they come in my wife's favorite color!
