Tragically Unhip

God bless CSS and png files!!

This is the first tab. You can’t see it in this shot, but the buttons are png files with transparent backgrounds so the glow looks cool and the gradient in the page background shows through. My genius knows no bounds.

This is the second.

I really can’t afford a touch screen monitor for Windows 7’s touch capabilities, and I especially can’t afford that new HP touch system that looks badass. But I am SO getting this badboy instead…

All of the reviews mention laptops, but on one presentation I saw, a slide flashes by with a line about supporting up to a 22″ monitor on a Desktop, which is sweet. However… the cable on it looks REALLY short; I don’t even think it’d stretch from my PC to the top of the monitor. I wonder would a USB extender cable work on this thing…?

Look how geeky David Spade used to look.

Now look how COOL he is. Like a fine wine, he gets better with age. I want to BE David Spade now!

So we have a problem at work. We have a server running an application called Fourth Shift and no one can remember their Fourth Shift login info. So, I go online and search for “recover fourth shift password”. One of the top hits I get is entitled “Female Pelvis”
You just can’t beat that kind of result can you?

This book actually exists! Seriously, I think I need to buy this. You just can’t go wrong can you? It’s all here: Mr Darcy, Elizabeth Bennet, the whole lot. Only now there’s a Zombie manifestation going on. The world is sadly lacking this kind of lateral thinking. More of it!!

I think I may have already posted this, (I know I posted a totally bitchrod live version with Springsteen) but if I did then so what cause it’s worth posting again. A classic song.

EDIT: Just updated the link to one that doesn’t have embedding disabled. F*&king youtube!!

I have NOTHING to blog about so I am wasting time and energy on this nonsense!

It’s May in Ireland and it’s SUNNY! Check it at the local park this morning.

And me, getting my BodaciousX on!

But they are still just fucking wrong. Whilst discussing said remakes with a friend, he showed me this list off the IMDB of up-coming remakes:

Clash of the Titans
Westworld
Short Circuit (why bother?)
Highlander
Child’s Play
Robocop
Last House on the Left
Escape from New York
The Thing
Total Recall (I wonder will they have the sense to NOT hire Vin Diesel, and instead focus on a person, hot a wise-cracking bicep. Either way, they’ll never outdo Ronny Cox’s Fuck ‘Em)
The Fly (nnnnnooooooo!!!!!)
The 39 Steps
The Birds
The Seven Samurai
Nightmare on Elm Street
Predator
Ghostbusters (NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! But it would seem the makers of the original are trying to block this.)

I mean, seriously, can NO ONE come up with an original idea any more? Even Marge Simpson’s Ghost Mutt is better than this bout of rehashing. Some of these are just not right. If they EVER even suggest remaking Blade Runner I am going to bomb Hollywood. All of it. I’m just sayin.
