Awesome music videoI love this music video. It’s the “I Feel Love” remix by Blue Man Group. The video is pretty funny (give it a chance) and it also uses some great bits from the concert tour. And I think I’m in love with the singer of the song.
Classified AdFrom today’s classified ads in the local newspaper: “WANTED: Young man to mow my lawn, clean my pool and pluck all those pesky weeds from my yard. Must look good without shirt or shoes. Stop by for personal interview.”
Something went wrongYou must see this video. For some reason, something went wrong and the laws of natural selection were not enforced. If I were the driver, I would have had a hard attack.
Name kidnappers - The storyLike I mentioned in the original Name Kidnappers post, we stole a coworker’s nameplate and then registered a Yahoo mail account to send the ransom note. Here’s the exchange of e-mails that happened through the day. Us: Her: Just give me the time and date and I will make sure you get the goods. I promise I have not contacted the police!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Her to her boss (the university’s lawyer): I received this email what should I do? Her boss: However, this is just the type of activity that there have discussions about stopping. [University’s chief of police] is coming over at 11:30/how him this. He can easily get a “pin trace” subpoena and find out who did it. The names haveto be registered and they can track this e-mail, if it came from on campus, back to the generating computer. Should take him about 45 minutes to complete. Once we find them, you know I have to go forward. This is a violation of computer use policy, as well as a misappropriation of state property- albeit with the value, probably only a class C misdemeanor. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll get on it. Us: When you have the ransom, e-mail and you’ll receive further instructions. You have 2 hours to comply to this request, without contacting the police or other legal authorities, or your nameplate may suffer . Her: I am leaving work as we speak to go home and make them………………….If I am not back in 2 hours, please do NOT hurt the nameplate. Us: The drop-off point will be McCartney Hall Room 208. Make sure no one follows you. Do not wear any recording or tracking equipment. Further instructions will follow. You are being watched. Her: Where in McCarney Hall Room 208 am I to place the treats. How will I know my nameplate has not been tramatized or damaged? Us: We are attaching proof of the well-being of your nameplate. We do not want to hurt it anymore than you want it hurt. Her: Us: Her: Us: We are done discussing the matter and we will end communications until after 2:15 p.m Her: Us: We have spotters around the quad, and delivery will be aborted should you attempt to arrive before the specified time. We hid the box underneath a bunch of leaves. At the specified time we watched her pick up her nameplate with a friend. Us:
Name kidnappersWe stole a coworker’s nameplate and made this ransom note and e-mailed it from a freshly-created yahoo account. We’ll see if she replies.

I feel greatIf you have broadband (and QuickTime) you must watch this commercial. “I feel great!” I wonder if it’s a real commercial. Anyone know?
I’m in the money!Like I mentioned yesterday, I was interviewed by the CBS Marketwatch people. And sure enough, I ended up in the article! It starts towards the bottom of the article with the sentence “Even the smallest stockholders are puzzled.” That quote is mine for the most part. He tweaked it slightly. But I still it’s pretty cool.
Sing it for me, baby!
SignageYesterday I kept complaining about all the Rocket Scientests I had to deal with, so my coworkers made this sign for me and posted it outside my door:
