The best thing to happen to ketchup since the upside-down bottle thing:

NOMNOMNOM

For maximum high fructose corn syrup intake, you can dip shit in this thing or go old-school and squeeze this shit on other shit. Now, we just need to clear up the whole ketchup/catsup naming conundrum, and we’ll be good to go.

The future is here, my friends.

Upon hearing preliminary reports that DC is about to get precisely 1 assload of snow, swantron.com has managed to deploy a field agent robot reporter to the scene.

How are things looking, REPORTRON?

~~REPORTRON: ALMOST TO LEVEL OF VERTICAL THINGS~ WARNING!~~

~~REPORTRON: VERTICAL THINGS JEOPARDIZED!~FLAG RETENTION UNIT JEOPARDIZED! JEOPARDY X2! CAUTION~~

~~REPORTRON: ODD LOOKING STATUE COMPROMISED! SOLID PRECIPITATION LEVEL TO STATUE NUTSACK! BEWARE!~~

Things are quite dire, it seems. REPORTRON is all metric, so things might be over or understated for an empirical system audience… stay tuned for breaking footage! Godspeed, REPORTRON.

Wikipedia states (horribly) : “Sunglasses can be worn to hide one’s eyes: They can make eye contact impossible, which can be intimidating to those not wearing sunglasses; the avoided eye contact can also demonstrate the wearer’s detachment,[citation needed] which is considered desirable (“cool”) in some circles.”

Some circles? I think all circles would consider sunglasses cool, or even bad-ass. Like the over-the-top-awesome MP3 shades that Dog the Bounty Hunter sports, regardless of location and time of day…

aggressive.

…calling those things cool is like calling Richard Branson’s sea-plane “neat.” Grossly understated.

I know a lot of the swantron reader base is looking for deals. And so! Here is an opportunity to render deals somewhat moot…. check out the screaming deals on wholesale sunglasses I dug up. The selection is pretty incredible, and the prices are honestly surprisingly low. If I could get the e-tail thing rolling, I would not hesitate for a second to start slanging these things…you name it, they have it.

It is hard to think about sunglasses without thinking Blues Brothers. That movie single-handedly made the Ray-Ban Wayfarer iconic. They have shades inspired by the Wayfarer, and shades that have taken that notion and pimped them out for the kids…

on a mission from gahd

Not over-the-top enough? Hook up some stutters a la Kanye

UV protection...no thanks

those could support an anvil on your damn neck

Those puppies would look slick on those MP3 shades. Black of course.

Anyhow, hit the link for a look at some sweet wholesale sunglasses. Drop me a line if you start selling those suckers, because I’m always in the market for some aviators.

I’ve had time to digest E1. As much time as it takes to decipher nonsense, but time none-the-less

crass. horrible color scheme. C-

Musings / Observations:

~ No sign of my favourite Tail-y and Lost-y in general, Mr. Eko. Mista Eko
~ Likewise, no sign of Michael, Walt (WAAAAALT!), Ana Lucia, Libby, and Shannon
~ Less vodka? In the pilot, Jack scored two extra mini-bottles of vodka…Cindy doles out only one in the reset
~ Same scene as ^, Rose is comforting Jack…role reversal
~ Charlie wants to die, whereas Hugo claims to be lucky as hell
~ Locke is still wheelchair bound, yet still claims to have gone on his walk-about…how the hell did he have time for it, and still catch Oceanic 815?
~ First hour (recap) drilled straight into the 2nd hour’s last-season-of-lost-answer-some-crap rapid pace
~ Smokie = Man in Black…no more wondering about that
~ Ben gets punk’d…tries to be slick after wiping out Jacob, until getting pwned and shpwn dead Locke
~ Hugo being decisive after seeing Jacob was intense, and anti-Jack
~ LeFleur is going to tear shit up…took out 4 Udders before they got him sacked and to the Temple
and most importantly…
~ My main man Sayid is ‘New Jacob’. Write that down…I called it. Miles was stunned and Jack failed. It is going to be awesome.

Pretty excited at the pace and feel of the final season. The reset will play itself out. There will be a few long ‘why Kate did what she did…Sawyer being good’ episodes, granted, but it should be a quick 30+ hours.

Can’t focus after that crap…look at the half-assed shitty work with The Gimp

Where the fuck was Mr. Eko? I’ll post more when I can wrap my head around that freaky episode.

July 10, 2006: My hombre Voy provides some landscaper lunch comic relief by crawling into a little van thing at the mall.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

February 2, 2010: My nephew Jake provides some comic relief to his mother by hamming it up in a little van thing at the mall.

I hope, for Jake’s sake, that those food-court ass-faces clean those things. Lord knows what sort of grime was on Voy’s clam-diggers in ‘o6.

How can the back crawl?

I think Richard Branson is awesome. He basically does whatever he wants. Like inventing seaplanes.

I added the orange fish.

FTA:
Billionaire Sir Richard Branson may already own an airline, a record label, a mobile phone company, several luxury restaurants and a Caribbean island. But today the entrepreneur unveiled his latest toy – an underwater plane.

The £415,000 prototype submersible is called the Necker Nymph and can dive to depths of up to 130ft. Sir Richard hopes to one day explore depths of 35,000ft – which is far more than the height of Mount Everest.

My hero.

Well, it turns out Amazon determined that I’m a bad motherfucker.

Digging the Pose, bro.

Typically Amazon tells me about HDMI cables, puzzle books, holsters, shell-toes, netbooks, etc. Now, apparently, they think I should check out some dashikis. And I might…

I’ve let it be known that I am a Wii dude. A Wii-tard, if you will. With my recent PS3 purchase, I have, for the first time, a real ‘live’ gaming unit. This has set me on a search, so to speak, for easy access to this world. I stumbled across these guys, offering xbox live 1 month code promotions on the cheap.

I chose a wood backdrop, and sure am glad that I did

Pretty slick site. In addition to the 1 month xbox live code mentioned above, they offer Wii card points, Playstation Network credits, and any sort of console access you could possibly want.

I feel that the marble-ing adds an air of sophistication

I understand that not all gamers are going to be looking for xbox live 1 month offers, but the good folks at pcgamesupply have you covered with instant access to even the most non-console offerings…you guessed it, WoW and CoD Modern Warefare 2.

Hit one of those links to check them out…I know you have the time.

It almost seems like a crime to own the most hackintosh-able netbook w/o hackintoshing the sumbitch. Ideal chipset…ideal ease of solid state HD and RAM upgrade. The only downside is my Linux fanboi-izm…and affinity to The Gimp. Ubuntu FTW.

Still a Gimp dude

I’m uber-serios-ly considering making the bump. I really hate iTunes and anything else with a small i preceding a word, but think that iPhone/iTouch app dev might be worth the hassle. More to come…I have some contemplation to contemplate.

The iPad doesn’t multi-task
The iPad is less powerful than my Mini 9
The iPad is twice as expensive as my Mini 9
The iPad still requires tethering sans WiFi
The iPad is Flash-free
The iPad…

iDo Not Want.

…ups the iTunes bullshit ante with some asinine iBooks bullshit. Dealbreaker.

Honestly, this thing is basically an entry level netbook with a touch-screen and a whole grip of proprietary junk. No HDMI out, so you cannot use your glorified e-book reader as a portable media center. No thanks. Maybe once this thing is jail-broken it will be worth a look, but as the iPad sits in Gen I, this thing is going the way of the Macbook Air…straight to obscurity.

The Apple fanboiz should be all over this stupid thing. I’ll stick to the smartphone / netbook for the time being.
