P$$$$t.

The Barbaro heroic$ weren’t about a love for animal$. It wa$ about the money.

$orry to ruin it for you.

(You can $ave a copy of my Barbaro $hrine if you want. I don’t mind.)

I don’t know about you, but I attribute my gud speling skils to Speak N Spell. Seriously, these things are awesome. I loved it when I was a kid.

Rick’s Slice O’ Blog:

IrfanView, the freeware image editor I use daily, won’t install.

That pretty much settles it for me right there.

Here’s a nice rundown of advanced Google search techniques.

Some new ones to me:

  • using a ~ prefix to search for synonyms
  • using .. between two numbers to search within a range
  • using * as a wildcard for multiple characters

What did I say? Two selfish thugs = crap basketball.

Utah had 27 assists and 18 turnovers. Denver had 17 and 12.

I’m open, I’m open!!

This is pretty cool. A co-worker of mine showed me something similar recently.

On a somewhat related note, I’ve always thought it would be cool to study how much time is wasted moving your hand from your keyboard to your mouse when using your computer. Having multiple screens at work, it seems real inefficient dragging my mouse all over the place. I mean, I do use a lot of hotkeys and stuff, but still. It would be cool if there was some sort of sensor on my glasses that would sense my eye movements and move the cursor on the screen.
