Nicotine Gel for your Hands?

This was an interesting find. Apparently, instead of lighting up, you smear this gel on your hands. Well, I guess if you're hard up for a smoke, this might be the ticket.

That reminds me, though, my dad was trying to quit smoking by taking Chantix. How's it going, dad?

White Board for my To Do List

Recently, while cleaning up the office, I discovered my old white board that I hadn't used in a while. The big issue with the white board is that there's not really many good places in my office to hang it up. Mostly it's because there's very little high-up vertical space thanks to my office being in the roof of the house. However, I did find a place for it just to the right of my desk.

Right now, what I am using my white board for is my to-do list. I like it because it's nice to be able to erase something off my list easily, not to mention adding things. I had a major sense of accomplishment yesterday with all the erasing of items I did. It's also easily reachable and visible from my desk, which is a huge bonus.

I'm hoping that actually being able to see the To Do list will actually help me to get things done. A visual reminder that stuff needs to be done.

Let the April Fools Fun Begin

Leave it to the folks at Google to start things off: Project Teaspoon. Actually, Woot had a bag of crap for a million and one dollars with a secret coupon code of "please" to knock the cost to the more customary one dollar pricetag. Too bad I didn't figure it out before the items sold out!

Idiocracy: A Disturbing Movie

Idiocracy


If you like Office Space, you'll probably love this movie. It is funny, not in a ha-ha kind of way, but in a cerebral way. But I also find it rather disturbing in a manner that reminded me of how The Day After affected me as a child. Obviously, Idiocracy is meant as a comedy and The Day After was meant as serious social commentary, so the affect isn't as deep, but it did get me thinking for longer than I should be thinking about it.

YouTube, is, of course, replete with clips from this movie. Here are a couple:
