Okay, chainsaws are freakin awesome. USB cords are very useful. So why not combine the two? USB Cahinsaw!!!!!

………………………………Why not? because that is the most stupid thing I have heard of all month, keep in mind I work with David Appelman, Clay Campbell is my best friend and if you know mother you’d understand… Haha. How dumb could you get? a USB chainsaw… You would have to have a SUPER LONG USB cord or you would have to carry around a laptop with you, while your cutting your trees. I guess its a good idea. The only reason I can see somebody using it is as a threat at the office.

“Hey, can I borrow your stapler?”
“No!”
*Takes out USB chainsaw and revs it* “What was that?”

Hahahah! Whatever, if this your kind of thing then buy it, it costs $60. You think this is a hoax, joke or is it just a stupid invention. comment me.

It rained so hard yesterday and we were all kinda locked in Yovia. I had to wake up my grandmother today to give me a ride. It is so dark outside…I hope it doesn’t rain anymore…. I may be heading out to Melbourne this weekend or next weekend. I am working on a couple of different thing at work so I may not be posting again until later on.

Some of you readers may remember my iPhone post a couple of weeks ago. The iPhone 3GS was released not too long ago and the most promising feature is the video recording. Being able to record video on the iPhone is awesome, even though you could have just Jailbroke your iPhone and had video recording a long time ago. There is a nice new accessory for the 3GS, it is called the OWLE. OWLE stands for Optical Widgets for Life Enhancement. It is basically a stand for more stability and a nicer lens for a h quality video. This enhancement also allows for a higher audio quality, since it has a built in microphone. For anyone who likes taking videos and has an iPhone 3GS, this is   buy, especially for the normal  of $30-$40. This revolutionizes the way we will shoot video.

The iPhone is revolutionizing the technological world as we know it. We are on the brink of create one sole device to do anything we want. We will soon not need Digital Cameras, Cell Phones, Video Games, Camcorders, Laptops or MP3 Players. The iPhone has all of this already. anything it doesn’t do already can be done by applications and/or by jailbreaking the iPhone. Pretty soon, we won’t need wallets and all of our identification and money will be on the iPhone. What a brilliant concept for a wonderful device! =D

Sorry if I got carried away, but I love the iPhone. I believe it has the power to change the way we do everything! Watch the video below for more information on the OWLE and Qik.

I got up today at around 7 o’clock and was really reluctant to get up. I had a nice 4 day weekend of sleeping at 2 o’clock in the morning and getting up at around 9 or 10 o’clock. So you cn see why I was reluctant to get up. Haha! My weekend was pretty sweet, I spent July 4th with Ashleigh and my grandparents and we got front row seats at the Beaches’ Fireworks Display. It was really nice, the rest of my weekend was spent hanging out with friends and playing XBOX 360. My Aunt and I were talking like we always have and she was talking about laptops and I was telling her about how I was saving up get one with my paycheck. We got off the phone and 30 minutes later, my Uncle calls me. He’s apparently at Best Buy and he wants me to choose between a Toshiba Satellite and a Dell Studio 15 for my birthday present. I was like “OH MYGOD I FREAKIN LOVE YOU!!!!!” I chose the Toshiba Satellite and I should be getting it whenever they come down to Florida in a week or so. I am SO HAPPY! This helps me a lot at work, since I work at a Computer Marketing and Social Advertising company (Yovia).

Apparently two monorails at the Disneyland Parks collided and one of the drivers died. I would love to take all the time to write a nice article, but my friend and co-worker did a pretty good job at summing it up. Check out her article and while your there, check out her blog:

So everyone knows that I work for a company called Yovia. While my co-worker was writing a post for our Buzz Page, I found this weird blob-looking thing she was writing about. Apparently, the sewers in Tennessee are infested with a blob of some sort. This video has been circulating the web and it is really creepy? Is it of alien origin? Is it a hoax?

According to an Anonymous Blogger:

This brain-like blob found on the sewers is most likely a group of Tubifex worms of kingdom animalia, phylum annelida. Also called sludge worms or sewage worms, a specie of tubificid segmented worm that inhabits the sediments of lakes, rivers, sewage waste and other? wet areas. They ingest sediments and gain nutrition by selectively absorbing bacteria and absorbing molecules to the body wall…Due to lack of soil, they formed into cyst-like formations, occasionally moving as one, making the massive blob look like it was pulsating….

Pretty weird…watch the video yourself. Tell me what you think it is, comment me! =D

This Q-Link thing is making me feel weird. Since June 18th, when I started using it, I have felt many different things. I was skeptical at first, but when I started feeling all of these feelings and emotions, I began to believe. I have been so hyper lately and I feel like I may be more energetic. But at the same time I have been feeling so emotional. I miss my girlfriend so much more and, even though she is all I think about anyway, I have been thinking and daydreaming about her a lot more lately. I also have been feeling a little jealous at times. I have never really gotten jealous before, but its like one of those things where your mind is like ” Kill him!”, but your body is like “Um….no!” Haha! All these emotions and feelings are gathering up inside of me like a nice big Pot Stew.

All I know is that this thing is doing something to me and I’m wondering whether I should take it off or not. Haha! I wonder if Ash will read this and be like “What The Heck!!!!” Just in case she does, I Love You Ashleigh!!!! =D

Many of you guys reading this may know that I am an absolute lover of E-Ink. I love the Amazon Kindles and anything with E-Ink on it. It is so power saving and such an awesome concept. Several Magazines have been using them for special edition covers that move and change. The Amazon kindle uses it for the neat little e-book reader. It is good for the eyes, because it isn’t as bright. The screen only uses power when it changes, you could be on the same page for hours and it wont waste power. Because the Kindle is so awesome and us

eful, some new ideas have been coming up. One of my favorite is the Coach’s Clipboard.

The Coach’s Clipboard has an E-Ink screen and it has several saved templates for the floors of every sport. It will have a Stencil or it will have touchscreen and you can make all the plays. It’s a really good subsitute for the old whiteboard. You can even save the drawings that you’ve made and look at them later and even edit them if you’d like. If they could make this just a drawing clipboard and not just for drawing on their templates, I would SO BUY IT! Like right now! Haha!

Guess who won? The amazing country known as: BRAZIL!!! Even though the correct spelling is Brasil. -_-  Haha! 3 to 2 United States played really well in the first half, but Brazil dominated the second half.  I’ll have more up about it. Im busy at work.

….Awesome…. That’s all I have to say. I am one of the people who thought that the first Transformers movie was completely amazing and loved it. Transformers 2 was awesome, it is definitely on my top 3action movies list. There are so many awesome battle scenes and the graphics are amazing. It’s hard making this post without giving away any spoilers, because the spoilers are what make the movie so awesome. The plot was a tiny bit predictable, especially towards the end, but it was still a good plot. I’m saying all of this in perspective of an action film lover. In comparison to other action movies, its awesome, but it’s not the best movie ever. Not worth missing, you need to go see this movie. I’m probably going to go see it again in theatres.

Hello there readers, sorry I haven’t been posting lately as much as I used to. I’ve been doing lots of translations lately and my head hurts. Haha! I think thats why I’ve had many headaches lately. Talking and Reading in 3 languages in the same period of time is hard and takes up all of my concentration. Thank goodness they don’t want me to do stuff in French. Haha!

Anywho, I just found out some cool things about Michael Jackson, while researching him for my post. Does anybody remember his amazing 45-degree lean that he does in “Smooth Criminal”? Apparently he used wires and harnesses and a bunch of other special effects in the video. But he performed it Live many times. How did he do it Live, wihtout cords? He invented and patened a couple of cool gadgets. According to DVICE.com:

He did it with special shoes that quickly slid into pegs that rise out of the floor at just the right moment. Also helping the effect were rigid anklets that worked like ski boots, supporting Jackson and his entourage of dancers as they leaned forward at that magic angle.
