Le Temps A Demain et Le Reste De La Semaine



Merde. I heard it's going to bloody snow again, this time like 6-8 inches. It's funny because we have been walking everywhere more than in summer (out of necessity, obviously) even though the weather has been like, 0-32 degrees for weeks. I don't mind the snow, honestly, it's just that my car can't make it anywhere and I have to rely on other people to go places.

Effing Hit Counter

So with this new template that I've been using, the hit counter goes directly to the top of the page instead of the bottom, and puts itself right in the middle of the title. I thought it would keep counting hits, but it doesn't, so you're just going to have to deal with seeing the damn thing. Ergh.

"Could We Think It Over?"

I know that most of you probably don't listen to most of the songs I put up, but if you'd just give them a chance, there's probably something on here that you'd like.
Try this one on for size:
Kaskade - "Steppin' Out"

Drool...


So Macworld was yesterday, and I spent a good part of my day looking for upates. Many of the blogs I had been reading were actually pretty accurate in their predictions about what Apple was going to release -- an iPhone and an Apple TV box. They were right. And let me say that a wave of pure technological desire hit me when I saw the iPhone. It's gloooorrrrious. It's teeny tiny slim, with a cool-looking interface. Here's an article describing it in detail:


The damn thing is like, $500-$600 bucks, but it's just so cool that I'd almost be willing to put the money up for it. Apple has me in a vise-grip. The best part? The carrier is going to be exclusively Cingular.

Grills... Grillz?!


I think that the trends that rap music inspires are awesome. I mean, honestly, who thought, "I'm going to put one of the hardest, sharpest substances known to man in my mouth, and then rap. That's what I'll do. Rap." I suppose I don't know, being from Fort White Bread and all, but still. It's crazy. This is also crazy:

"Rapper Paul Wall is taking his penchant for making grills to the next level.
The Houston rapper has teamed with Zenetti, a global trendsetter in designer automotive accessories, to create a signature line of vehicle grills and wheels encrusted with cubic zirconium stones.
The items will be available for coupes, SUVs, Chrysler 300, Dodge Magnums, Chargers and Cadillac Escalades.
"The front end grills will be iced out with crystals, and they will be compatible with Chargers, 300M's, Magnums, and Escalades," Paul Wall told AllHipHop.com. "The wheels are called the Masquerade. They will have crystallized iced out plates that cover the chrome base. One of the best things about the wheels is that the face plates will be removable so that you can ride on chrome or skate on 'ice'!" "



I am so getting an iced out grill for my... civic. I guess they don't make them for Hondas, so maybe for my bike -- "Hell naw man, nothin' but ice on my handlebars! What!"
