Can't wait

Just another Tuesday morning

2008-11-04T19:35:48Z

Wake up with the thought I forgot to pay the rent which is due by midnight yesterday. So, I go down thinking it's OK, since the banks I closed anyway. The manager tells me that she doesn't care, and I owe her $50 penalty... Of course I tell her what I think about her, and pay the penalty.

I go down to a gated garage with cameras only to see that my car has been broken in to and the passenger window is all over my seat and the floor, first thing I do is to check the trunk since that was the only time in a long time I left the laptop there. Laptop is there. So, I'm relieved, and the glass all of the sudden is a minor issue.

Being the patriot that I'm I drive down to vote, only to be told that I'm not on the list and I probably came to the wrong polling station. They let me vote anyway.

While I'm driving to work my manager calls me and tells me that the our database is broken, and although I'm not a DBA somehow they decided to make it my problem.

Really anxious to see what happens next.

Those marketing people, keep changing the logos.

Best Search Engine Ever. :)

2008-10-08T22:13:49Z

Came across this search engine http://www.hateaboutyou.com

Search for any song you can think of and you can listen to it and download it.

Just as a test I searched for "две луны" and found it.

My close relative's song is going to be used in the new Coen Brothers movie. Very excited.

23andMe Slashed their price yesterday by 60%. Now your genome scan is only $399.

Now that it's so accessible to everyone, I wonder if they are tracking depression rate of customers that did the scan. Imagine you find out you have a high chance of Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. I think some kind of counseling should come with the kit.

On the other hand they should cut prices even more, so everyone does it. This way all the data that's collected can be sold to pharmaceuticals and research institutions for if not faster then more productive research.

С прошедшим вас!

Россия вступила в войну. Бронетанковые колонны Минобороны РФ уже заняли центр разбомбленного грузинами Цхинвали. Безнаказанной гибели наших соотечественников и миротворцев мы не допустим, обещают в Москве, выполняя приказ президента.

If it was for real it would be a nice reason to lose weight.
Airline that charges passengers by the pound.

"Visitors to the airline site learn that Derrie-Air is the world's only carbon-neutral luxury airline, and it justifies its fare policy by saying that it takes more fuel to move heavier objects. The carrier pledges to plant trees to offset every pound of carbon its planes release into the atmosphere."

My resume just got stronger

2007-10-15T21:02:13Z

I work as an IT professional. Today I got an email from my boss the CFO of the company.

Here is the email:
"
Subject: lets buy one of these guys. actually 2 for our men's room. blue preferred.

Body: http://www.urinalsplashguard.com/order.php

"

First of all WTF. I do have to say that he made my day by this request. I hope he is not counting on me as an IT person to install those things.

I did asked him why he was so specific on the color, he said that red and green are our company colors and he doesn't want people urinating on them. I should have known better then to ask this question, after all he did get his law degree from Harvard. I'm curious to know in which law class they cover the colors of splash guards for urinals.

Just another day at startup.

Weird how life stuff changes from day to day, hour to hour... I guess without this rollercoaster life would be pretty boring. So, it’s all good. J

I'm back on ЖЖ. After a little break, I decided to come back, since it still seems like a place to be and kill time when you have nothing to do. Not sure if I will post stuff and if it will be interesting to you, but I will try to write something. So, thank you for taking me back.
