coupons? on eBay!

i have this strange desire to quit my day job. i know, that is not a sound thing to do, but look at what i could be doing to make money... selling coupons on ebay. you know, i get the sunday paper. i don't ever clip/use the coupons. so why not start collecting them and selling them on ebay. i mean, how much time do you think it would take to make this a viable business? two months? then i could also sell all the crap i have that i don't want. that has got to end up in some cash too. so … [Read more...]

chicago gets 13

chicago got nominated for 13 oscars this morning. i find it interesting. i think it was a good movie. but i think others were good too. like road to perdition. that was an excellent movie. it had me the whole time. and i didn't hate the ending like i did with about schmidt. i also really enjoyed about a boy. i liked about a boy so much i bought it on the day it came out. i don't understand the people who make get to make the oscar nominations. i think it is way too political. but, … [Read more...]

no more dawson…

apparently my sisters favorite tv show is going off the air. dawsons creek, yes you heard me right, is going off the air at the end of the season. granted, I was pretty bummed when felicity was ditched, but i never really got into dawsons creek. i think it is a good thing, although she doesn't. oh well, can't please everyone all the time can you. besides, with how easy it is to be type-casted in hollywood, i'm sure dawson really doesn't want to be dawson anymore. i'm looking for a song. … [Read more...]

sbc, idiots…

so sbc has this fun patent that says it owns the right to frames like navigation, and has since 1996. now they want little guys like MuseumTour.com to pay up. i did have a web site way back in 1996, and it was using frames like navigation. i'm not sure of the date, but you can be sure that i'm going to check it out. you should too. do as pbs' cringely suggests. "...please come forward and show that the patent isn't valid." the internet is not about big business making money off the little … [Read more...]
