What CAN'T Google do?
It’s been a little while since I’ve posted anything of a useless rant, and since I have the time to do so today, I figure: why not?
First of all, the reason for this post is mostly just so I could whore out the fact that I have Google Voice now. It’s pretty much my favorite new toy ever. Free texting, phone calls, and .02 cent international calls. And a different number to screw with people if I really want to. And I can text from my computer.

How many times has this happened to you?
You buy a product or service, and it’s either a piece of junk, something goes wrong with it, or the service just ends up being something you didn’t expect. So what do you do? You call the customer service number you were given when you first purchased said product or service. Or, if you don’t do that, you go in to the store to talk to a representative face to face.
It seems like good customer service is a lost cause nowadays, because most of the times you call into a company,

Not that many people are hockey fans. It’s not a game that has the popularity that American Football or Baseball has in the United States, or Football (Soccer) internationally. But for me personally, it’s life. And with the 2010 Olympics currently in full force in Vancouver right now, and more specifically the fact that it’s the Olympic time, and the hockey tournament is in full force, I’m going to write a post about Hockey.
Click away from the page right now if you’re already bored. I don’t care. Hockey = best sport ever.
Why you ask?
Ladies and gentleman, I give

Anyone who knows me understands how attached I am to my laptop. It’s pretty much like another appendage. So needless to say, if said appendage were to ever break, it’d be like putting my entire left arm in a cast. Semi-pathetic, I know, but it’s really true. Most everything I do is on a computer, so it’s essentially a necessity.
I’ve always been a computer kid, but when I got to use one of my ex’s Mac Books for a couple weeks I fell in love. I loved the sleek interface, the speed that it always seemed to have no

 About four months ago, I wrote a blog entitled Toilet Paper Personality Indicator. Click the link to read the entry, and get caught up before you read the rest of this. Otherwise you’re going to read this, and be all like “WTFBBQ?”
Bleh. Chat lingo seriously makes no sense to me. It makes me dumbr.
See? (Intentional typo)
Sometimes I swear I have A.D.D., like for real. I seem to lose focus on things so quickly. So of course the sequel to the previous entry is long overdue, but here I am, so those of you (Lauren) who have been

 I’ll be honest. While I am a very avid music appreciator, I’m not normally one to focus on all the awards shows. It’s just never really been my thing, mainly because I never like any of the “main stream” artists who get put up for awards. I think they’re shoddy, over-produced and over-hyped. I wasn’t even planning on watching this years Grammys, but as circumstance would have it, I found myself with nothing else to be doing at that time, and the remote control about five feet too far away from me. So, I watched.
I came in a little

“Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.”
~~William Ernest Henley
This goes out to my good friend Dani. My initial reaction to this suggestion was “WTF?!” And then, like I do, I started rolling it around in my head, and what I could blog started unraveling before me like the Sistine Chapel did for Michelangelo.
To quote the request:
“The paradigm of single v. two-ply toilet paper and how that relates to eco-friendly v. narcissistic behavior.”
As you can see, my initial “WTF” reaction was warranted. But, let’s break this down.
Johnny goes to the store because he’s out of toilet paper. Upon arriving in the designated isle, he’s faced with a
