inquisitor
i love the creativity in the world of the internet. people just keep making cool things.
this isn't the coolest of the cool, but it shows the freedom that the internet is (and it's at least a little cool, if you subscribe to my definition of cool, which i don't recommend doing).

now, if we could just get it to work with google images...

zizzle
zizzle is supposed to be the big thing this christmas. you can mix music by pulling on his ear and pushing his belly and then he dances and makes a light show. also, if you hook him up to your mp3 player, he dances to your music.
i'm not usually into the 'cool' thing. But i have to confess. If i didn't think this would annoy my sister and her husband to death, i may have ordered it for my neice and given it to her for a xmas 'fresent'.

movie map
sometimes, this internet thing can be pretty smart. now i can see a map of minneapolis, roll over one of the movie theaters listed and see the times and movies available, without a ton of clicking around. neato frito.

aaron 'colonel' dewitt and susan quakkelaar
our friends are hilarious. last night was the kickball end-of-the-season party at kat and scott's house and they had the most awesome-ist trophy for us enscribed with '1st place kickball captains' and our names. it is so perfect. it beats out any other trophy i've ever gotten because it is so damn cool that our friends gave it to us.
the last two years have really been awesome. i'm always amazed at how great our friends are and i don't regret the time we've spent on the team because the fun we've had was worth any amount of trouble, that's for sure. now that we've had some distance from the game for a couple of weeks, the trouble we went through seems so small now. especially with a great trophy on our fireplace.
they also got us a gift certificate to both REI and Fujiya, which i thought was way generous. they really made us feel special.
thanks for all the good captain times, kickball team.
welcome all the good kickball playing times, future.

i'm a (gasp) plant murderer
i really didn't mean to. i'm so sad now. it was so beautiful, alive, thriving... now it's dead because of me.
i wanted to take it to work, to let it grow in my office like it never could at home (not enough room with all my other plants).
i never imagined that the freezing cold temparatures would kill it so completely. i mean deader than i've ever seen a plant. it was alive when i got it here and within an hour, corpse.
i am so completely traumatized. how could i do this?
a plant is dead, the murder weapon was ten minutes of minnesota cold, and i am a murderer.
(sigh)

woogle, toogle, soogle, gsig and google for
there are endless websites that make use of google's algorithm and create fun affects. Here are a couple new ones:
woogle: http://www.gujian.net/woogle/index.php
put in a phrase and woogle returns results using pictures (always something unusual)
my favorite was this phrase- ass, gas, or grass, no one rides for free
toogle: http://c6.org/toogle/
put in a word and toogle takes the image that would have been returned and recreates it using colored text (in the form of the word queried).
soople: http://www.soople.com/
shows all the google search capabilities, makes them easy to use.
google for: http://googlefor.com/squakk.aspx
create your own search engine homepage.
gsig: http://gsig.brightdev.com/index.php
create an email signature for your website
google is king, eh?

my friend tracy
i hung out with my friend tracy today. we made apple cake, quesadilla's and apple pie. we talked a lot and had a really great time.
i like the fact that we used to work together, so we've seen the best and worst of each other, and we can also bitch and complain about our current work when it's bothering us. she's a really good listener.
we talk about having babies at the same time and babysitting for each other. that's a nice thought. having babies...
i'm ready to start having babies... soon.
so anyway, tracy was fun to hang out with today (and the pie turned out great!).

magical
she put a peice of paper in front of me. it showed how many fingers to put down on what string in what order. not even real music. completely simplified so even an amateur like me could play it.
i started slowly, until magically the tune came back to me and i didn't even have to look at the paper anymore. =)
then she said i have a great bow hand.
she said that i really am much further along than i give myself credit for.
it was magical.
i came very close to crying just a little, that's is how i felt inside.

site navigation evolution
i'm seeing a lot more sites explore unique navigation solutions. i've seen more and more like this one: http://www.arnoldproject.com/
this picture doesn't do it justice, you have to try it for yourself.
i like it for the most part, but i've only seen it on portfolio sites. would this be as successful on a more hardworking /more heavily content driven type of website?

free shipping
was it fair for me to sign josh (coworker) up for the chicken joke of the day? probably not.
is it like salt in the wound that he has tried multiple times to unsubscribe from the list, unsuccessfully? absolutely.
is my unexplained subscription to the playboy promotional email list an extremely equitable counter-attack? i think so.
