Baio’s TwitPic
Readers know that I do not use Twitter, but I do keep an ear open for dumb Twitter news. Well, here is one for the books. A photo of Michelle Obama was published on TwitPic.com, which has some people's panties in a bunch.
Scott Baio, best known as Chachi, posted the below picture with caption on TwitPic. Not a big deal IMHO, but some dumb-ass mofos are pissed and have sent him death threats. If her last name was not Obama, it would not be an issue. Lame!
Not So Original
I was planning on publishing a short series of random Google Suggests content, but I found that others have already done the same. As a matter of fact, I found a couple of sites that are entirely dedicated to Google Suggests content. So much for that idea!
Brown Wins Election
I am going to keep this short, "Republican Scott Brown has won the Massachusetts Senate seat!" Also, I just read that Obama phoned to congratulate him on the win. Right mofo, you just want his vote for your own agenda (i.e. ObamaCare).
For those that do not give a shit, no problem. I am just happy to hear that Brown won and has indicated he would help biatch slap Obama's health care reform and the strong arm tax increase proposals inked by the mofo Democrats. That is all. I am outta here!
Damn Lowballers
Are you ready? Okay, I received an email from a recruiter inquiring about my availability and interest in two Sr. level positions. Nothing new, until I read the rates. The rates are $45.00 and $50.00 per hour respectively. Are you kidding me?
In addition to being insulted, I am blown away that rates have dropped so much. Let me tell you what I think. I am convinced that employers and recruiters are (ab)using unemployment and the recession as a crutch to lowball rates. Do not agree?
AT&T In The News
Is it me or is all AT&T news "bad"? Headline, "AT&T Flaw Provided Access to Other People’s Facebook Accounts". As mentioned before, I do NOT make this shit up. I was rolling when I read this. Kapow! AT&T gets smacked down again. Verizon must be laughing like a mofo.
Generally Web sites and computers are compromised from within… But in this case, it was a security gap between the AT&T phone and the Web site that exposed strangers’ Facebook pages. Misconfigured equipment, poorly written network software or other technical errors could have caused AT&T to fumble the information flowing from the phones to Facebook and back.
Hmm, one more item. AT&T wireless customers should thank Verizon for lowering their plan prices. Why thank Verizon? Because AT&T followed their lead and come tomorrow, wireless customers can change to the new plans and save a couple dollars. Yup! Pigs do fly.
Korean BBQ
My friends and I have been frequenting a Korean restaurant in the area for a couple years now called Oz Korean BBQ. We commonly refer to the establishment as "The Oh Zee" We visit there for special occasions or whenever we have a hankering to hang out and have some delicious beef. The quality of the marinated beef and food is excellent. The wait staff is usually pretty friendly and helpful. Recently, the crew has felt that we haven't been getting our fair share of beef when we order two or more orders. It's little things like if you order two orders together you get 2 mushrooms instead of four. Not a big deal until everyone at the table wants the mushroom. So we've been feeling a little short changed and decided to try a new Korean BBQ.
Another T-Mobile Scam
The following has occurred twice now, so I am going to assume it is NOT a coincidence. If I am using a lot of voice time and plan on going over the plan minutes, I will call T-Mobile and upgrade the voice plan versus risk paying overage charges.
Simple process and the representative will back date the plan, so I have immediate access to the additional plan minutes. Gee, that is great service. Wait one T-Bagger minute. What happens if I want to downgrade? The scammers will post date the downgrade.
Yup! You got it; one has to ride out their current plan until the end of the billing period. I called 5 days into a new billing period and had used less than 30 minutes. WTF! There is NO reason I cannot be downgraded immediately, right? Another scam alert!
Throw It Out
Here is a quick question for the readers, "Do you eat food after the expiration date?" Here is another question, "What is the storage life of frozen meat?" Just asking, because I usually toss food before the "Use By" or "Freeze By" dates. I am not taking any chances.
I am sure this has been discussed 100 times over, so I thought I would read what others are saying. The responses for refrigerated food vary from a couple days to a couple weeks past the expiration date.
More Suggestions
This post piggy-backs on yesterday's post regarding the Google suggestions I encountered when searching for 411 on Jay Leno. I am preparing a post about Obamacare and the mofo Democrats, so I headed over to Google to do some research.
Hmmm, what does Google suggest? Once again, Google is right on the money. I suspect the suggest algorithm takes into account the popularity of the search terms thus the below. It looks like I have some reading to do, thanks Google!
Late Night Fiasco
What the hell is going on with late night programming? Leno's show sucks major ass, so NBC is moving him back to his old time slot. Like that will make him suck less ass, he is lame-o. I read that Conan told NBC to pound sand. Good for him.
The mofos at NBC are kissing Leno's ass, so Conan gets bumped. I am sure everyone knows that it all boils down to ratings and greed, right? If the Leno show is not performing, kick it to the curb. Seems pretty simple to me.
BTW, I do not watch "Late Night" with Conan. I am just commenting that I think he got the shaft. Anyway, I hit Google to search for more 411 and guess what Google suggested? I see others are inline with WassupJose. Nice.
