Live a good life.

I've seen this quote attributed to Marcus Aurelius as well as Anonymous. I don't have time to research and truthfully I don't really care who said it. It just is...a good quote for all people of any faith, no faith or not sure faith.

Live a good life.

If there are gods and they are just, 
    then they will not care how devout you have been, 
        but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by.

If there are gods, but unjust, 
    then you should not want to worship them.

If there are no gods, then you will be gone, 
    but will have lived a noble life 
        that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.

Redbox Scratch Off

This is a pretty neat way to market to people. I texted to a number a particular phrase and I get a text back with a link. I visit the link and what you see in the video is what happens.

I'm easily amused and enjoyed the digital scratch off. It's still a pretty cool but simple way to interact with customers...at least it keeps people (me) involved.

Email humor 06/13/2014

An elderly man in Oklahoma calls his son in New York and says, "I hate to ruin your day son, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting a divorce; 45 years of marriage... and that much misery is enough!" "Dad, what are you talking about?" the son yells. "We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the old dad explained. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Hong Kong and tell her!".

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this."

She calls her elderly father immediately, and screams at him, "You are not getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, you hear me?" she yelled as she hung up the phone.

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay", he says, "it's all set. They're both coming for Christmas and paying their own air-fare."

Water release from the fire hydrant

So, I know there is a reason why the fire department releases water from the fire hydrants but can they not find a way to capture this water and make use of it elsewhere instead of having it drain into the roads and down the gutters especially with the drought and water restrictions?

Test post from iPad (06/08/14)

I'm trying to find out ways to blog from my new iPad with various apps versus using the Google app or via the web interface. I've tried doing it thru Chrome and it doesn't allow me to upload a picture from my iPad photos.

Lost cat

I think we'll be able to find this feline pretty quickly with such a detailed description.

French Open flashback


1977 French Open Mixed Doubles Champions —— Mary Carillo & John McEnroe.

If I didn't know better, I would say this is NOT a mixed doubles team.

DCU Son of Batman DVD scan

This is similar to a previous post here.

How many languages does the DVD Son of Batman need to be translated/subtitled in?

Apparently many.



Yeah, random. I know.

2048 is possibly the worst game...ever!

After about 350 losing attempts, the most frustrating and yet addictive game has been owned! I will now happily move forward with the uninstall.

 

That's all I got to say about that!
