Why can’t some websites get with the program? I’m not going to read your site if it’s in a pop-up window.

I was running Ad-Aware on my sister’s machine and the scan was taking forever. I looked at the current path of the scan and saw that it was still in the My Pictures section after 20 minutes.

Here are the properties of that one folder.

Update: After I told her husband how many pictures she has on her computer he said, “And that’s only from the last 3 years.”

If you think that the opportunity to toss a tennis ball to me isn’t a hotly-contested honor, you’re wrong. My 7 year old step-nieces wrestled fiercely in the backyard for this distinction, right up until one of them peed her pants.

She was sullen and downtrodden, so to make her feel better I explained that everyone pees their pants. Hannah Montana pees her pants. The Jonas Brothers pee their pants. Some girl from Camp Rock pees her pants too.

After cheering up a bit she found the silver lining: “at least it was warm”.

A member of my family is socially awkward while opening gifts. Her routine involves opening the gift, followed by a sing-songy proclamation of what the gift is.

Whatever happened to smiling and saying thanks?

Having wikipedia on a keychain is both functional and elegant. It also gives me the opportunity to say “dongle” a few hundred more times.

When you cram Annie Clark in the backseat of a cab in London, expect great things.

My mother sat on the edge of her cooler (there’s only one chair in this room) completely enthralled.
