July 26, 2001 - ThursdayWell, next week I'll be aboard the Cuan Law and diving in the British Virgin Islands. The Web will just have to get along without me, I suppose. July 25, 2001 - WednesdayLet me see if I have this straight. People are paying to go stand on a dead whale and pet the sharks feeding on it Is this a joke? Now here's an amusement park ride worth looking for: the ThrustAir 2000 ; it does 0 - 80 mph in two seconds! Now, who has one? Meanwhile, back on the list of "1001 Useless Things to do With A GPS Receiver" we now have a beer with a built-in GPS locator . Yes, now your beer is tracking you. July 24, 2001 - TuesdayOK, so your dog is registered to vote , but can it figure out a butterfly ballot? July 20, 2001 - FridayDid you know that we are facing a worldwide caviar crisis ? Neither did I. Do you care? Neither do I. July 18, 2001 - WednesdayDid you have a little red wagon when growing up? Well, they're on the Internet now too. July 13, 2001 - FridayMan Attacked by Cat While Showering Bird . The headline says it all, really. Though I do wonder why he was taking a shower with his bird in the first place. July 12, 2001 - ThursdayFor too long have the innocent garden gnomes been supressed. Time for the Garden Gnome Liberation Front . No one expects the Garden Gnome Liberation Front! July 10, 2001 - TuesdayHere we have the homepage of the World Rock/Paper/Scissors Society I didn't even know they were organized. What's next, an Olympic exhibition event? July 2, 2001 - MondayA wearable GPS unit with a heads-up display . I want one! I have absolutely no need for one, but I want one! And, from the department of "People With Too Much Time on Their Hands" we have Where's George? Enter the serial number from a dollar bill and it tells you where that bill has been. I personally really don't care to know that my money is having more fun travelling than I am... |
