So the remodel is almost done - just a couple more small things to wrap up. And we’re planning on a pre-listing open house. More info here.

Not only did I get a speeding ticket (okay, so I deserved it but I still have a right to be pissed!) but the dog peed in the house too. Hopefully tomorrow is better. Did I mention that our backup drive on the server went out too and needed to be replaced? Thankfully today is over, at least in my time zone so if anything else happens it will be on another day.

I know people who know people who rob people. (Yes, this is a movie line but I will use it as my own. I just added it here so I can remember it.) Do it. Do it.

Okay, so a few of the new minivans and SUV’s have options for TV screens and DVD players for the passengers. Yes, this is a great way to entertain your eastern-block quantity of kids for people who don’t believe in birth control, but let’s keep it in check!

Yesterday I saw a Kia/Hyundai/Suzuki/Whatever (cheap car) with 2 large screens hanging (the portable kind maybe?) from each front seat backrest. Yes, the kids are in the back. The beauty of it is that one child is probably not even talking yet, maybe toddling. The other child was about 2. I concur; why pay attention to your kids when TV can do it for you? Excellent.

Now I may be a bit biased not having TV when I grew up, but I think it helped me be more independent and actually entertain myself with things like twigs and rocks and crap. Okay, maybe I had some luxuries like radio control cars but at least they were interactive.

Greg (aka G-Dawg) came up with ADS today while we’re “working” on the rehab. Normally G-Dawg works his butt off, but today we were doing some strategic planning and stuff so we had a bunch of time to BS about things, life, etc. So when about 11:30am rolled around and he was reaching for the last Pete’s Wicked Ale in the uberFridge (this thing has 2 temperature settings in the reefer part; Frozen and Rock Solid Frozen. Sounds nice, yes but when your sandwich is frozen and its lunch time it kind of sucks…) I gave him the usual sarcastic crap I dish out to everyone. So his retort had something to do with ADS: Alcohol Deficiency Syndrome. I don’t’ remember the other details but it was funny as ‘ell!

I urge you all to sign our petition and get it as a recognized medical condition. After which we will try to petition for state supported medical alcohol (and a DUII get out of jail free permit) kind of like medical Marijuana.

So I had this weird, random thought after watching this CNN video clip.

In the clip, they mention that the Atlantic Ocean water temp was recorded at 83 degrees, which helps fuel the hurricane and the whole pressure difference. First off, these people are nuts to fly through it, but whatever. Someone’s got to do it. Thanks for taking one for the team.

So my thought was, what if they bombed the water around the hurricane with say like 10 tons of dry ice? Negative 100 degrees F, so that might counteract the water temp some. Weird, yes but has anyone tried it?
