Don't forget to vote in the best caption contest.

I mentioned yesterday that I would tell you about this chain letter I got. I was going to go through the trouble of scanning it in so you can see it but I decided that I don't even want to go through even that much effort. People who send chain letters should be lined up and shot.

If you try to put a positive spin on it and say that the person, who sent it to me, looked at it as an opportunity for me to bring myself some good luck. It still is idiotic. The thought that sending 20 letters out through the post office could bring you good luck is like saying if you put your tooth under your pillow you'll get a dollar in the morning. If you believe in karma I'm thinking that would be a big mark in the negative column. Your aggravating 20 other people at the cost of about 45 cents a piece, if you figure in the cost of the copies, postage and the envelopes.

The letter said you should send it to “20 friends and associates.” I wouldn’t want to do that to any friend of mine.

I now have the First Commandment for the Gary Krishna’s.

Thou Shall Not Continue Chain Letters In Any Form.



Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

First of all, I put up a poll to pick the best photo caption. I picked a few of my favorites. Now you can pick the BEST of the best.

Second, I got my ignition key from my Moms and I am mobile again. It’s nice to be on the road after not driving for a few days.

Third, I have a new and possibly recurring feature. Science with my Nuts.

Question: What weighs more, a pound of silver or a pound of my nuts?



Answer: A pound of my nuts. A pound of silver would weigh less because silver is measured in troy pounds. A troy pound of silver would weigh 0.373 kilogram. A pound of my nuts weigh 0.454 kilogram. As you can see my nuts are hefty.

Come back and learn more about science from my nuts.

Tomorrow, I’ll tell you about this chain letter I got in the snail mail. God, I hate chain letters.

Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

I pray the key to my car gets here tomorrow. I really hate having to rely on someone else. Whenever there's a party I like to drive myself because I want to be able to leave when I want to leave. Now I have to ask for rides.

Its not like I don't have friends who would help. They wouldn't give it a second thought. It's just the fact that I need someone's help. I pride myself on being self-reliant. Here I am... not even able to get to work without help. I'm going to be making extra copies of the key when I get it.

Today was actually a pretty good day. I was prepared for everything I needed to do. (i.e. meetings, interview) I got this big job almost completely finished. I went to the Mag and talked to a few friends. I'm getting some laundry done. Now the only thing I can hope for is that my car key is in my mailbox when I get up.

Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

This day has sucked some major ass.

I have a shitload of stuff to do for work and then I think to myself that its been a little while since I've had steak. So I decide that's what I'm going to have for dinner. I take my lunch break head out to my car and realize that even though I have my door key, I somehow managed to lose my ignition key. They were both on my carabiner. So my dreams of steak were turned into McDonalds.

I searched everywhere I had been in the building and I just can't find the key. I know its at work but I just don't know where. I call my Mom and she's going to overnight a key to me that she "thinks" is the extra key I forgot to get from her when I bought the car.

So my car is way the hell out on Hurstbourne Lane with my extra cigarettes.

Yea!!!

Good Night.

Well, you've probably noticed I've been making changes to the site. Just little tweaks. I'll probably change the background as the mood stikes me.

Nothing has pissed me off today. That means I don't have anything to talk about. DAMN! That makes me so MAD!

BTW, mrquick.net is best viewed on Internet Explorer 4 and up. If you use Netscape, not everything will work right. I used to be all for Netscape but they suck now. IE has kept getting better and Netscape has not and that's the bottom line.

Check out MrQuick Radio.

There have been a couple more additions to the Photo Caption Contest.

Good Night.

A friend of mine told me a while back about this webpage that will let you broadcast you own online radio station right from your computer. www.live365.com

I finally went and checked it out. Its actually pretty cool if it works right. I don't know if you noticed new link on the left, there is MrQuick Radio and at the bottom if you click on my picture it will start my broadcast if I'm online. Right now I have about 6 and half hours of music on a continuous loop. It was late when I started working on this and I didn't put a lot of thought on what I was putting in the list. I just grab a bunch of MP3's and dropped them in.

Check it out and tell me what you think and how it works for you.

Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

Well its been about a week since I first started the Photo Caption Contest and I put up the better ones that were sent to me. There were a couple of others but I didn't really get some of them. Ask any of my friends, I'm one of the first people to pull something dirty out of a sentence. Its possible that some entries were just over my head. But I don't think so.

I plan to pick about 5 of the ones I like the best and I'll let you vote. I should have that up in the next couple of days.

Tonight there was a full moon and the freaks were out. Some guy who was angry, didn't have his ID, and was asking Tate if he was a cop before Tate even had a chance to ask him for his ID. Started giving some story about his wife dying and just wanting a beer but giving off every sign that he was about to start throwing punches. He left with a few stern words from Tate but he might have left sooner if he had noticed the group of five guys that stratigically placed themselves and were ready for something to happen. The five didn't include Mark the bartender or Tate himself.

That was early in the evening. After the bar closed, there was some shouting match outside but no fight.

Ahhhhh... the Full Moon.

Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.
