If you didn't know, the last Friday of July is known as SysAdminDay. That's System Administration Appreciation Day! So if you work in an office with lots of computers-- appreciate your techy today! The sysadmin people are the guys who come help you with your computer problems, makes sure your computer is secure, and fixes your machine after you download a virus by mistake. These people rarely get the praise they deserve for working so tirelessly, with such touchy computer equipment. If you are one of these techies, well, Happy SysAdminDay to you! Sometimes they work from home... They protect you when you download viruses. They download all your program updates. They fix your computer when you break it. Type such jargon, you'll never understand. Deals with broken hard drives, bringing them back to life. Makes sure your computer is secure from porn sites, viruses, and more. Answer all of your technical questions, when they have time. And so much more, we couldn't list it all! So go appreciate the techy in your life!

A two-headed baby was born in the Philipines! This phenomenom is extremely rare. The baby girl named "Baby Girl Arciaga" was born with two heads, two spines, two brains, and two hearts, all in one cavity. The rest of the body, like lungs, kidneys, ect, are all shared. This condition is called "Dicephaly Monozygotic Conjoined Birth." This rare condition only occurs in aboout 1 in 80,000 live births. It's not impossible for the baby to survive, but the life expectantcy in unknown thus far. The two-headed baby will be kept under observation for a while.

Dumbass Of the Week: The Wisconsin Highway Sign Makers

A sign on Interstate 39 in Wisconsin has every word misspelled except for the word "exit." Granted, there are only 4 words on the highway sign, but how do the sign makers misspell 3 out of the 4 words! Rothschild and Schofield may be difficult words to spell, especially if you've never heard of them or seen them, but that's why people do research, and have others double check the work! Here is the highly misspelled sign: The Wisconsin sign makers couldn't even get the word "Business" right... they spelled it "buisness." Come on people! According to the I-39 sign, it's exit number 185, but now I am starting to wonder, maybe it's actually supposed to be exit 158. Who knows. lol That's a pretty bad and embarrassing mistake to make. But the sign company is taking full responsibility and will be replacing the sign soon. As Bill Engvall would say "Here's your sign...!"

One of the loyal video makers on SodaHead went to the Jackson Family compound in Encino, and interviewed Michael Jackson fans in front of the home. There's some good singing from the loyal MJ fans, singing Michael Jackson songs, and some even doing a little dance. At the very end there's one kid who admitted he came, but didn't care about MJ... he just showed up because he was bored. haha. I think you should all watch the video and share it. =) Support SodaHead cause you know you love it! So, what did you think about the Michael Jackson fan interviews?

Fruit Snack FAIL

I was eating a pack of fruit snacks made by Motts. And... my first complaint is that the number of fruit snacks per pouch varies way too much! Some days I get 4, and other days I get 7 fruit snack fruits. One day I only got 2! I almost wrote Mott's to complain. Anyways, what I thought was funny was that I got three fruit snacks that were stuck together... and you can see--- (Sorry the pic is all distorted, so it doesn't look as funny as it does in person) lol Total Mott's Fruit Snack FAIL!

AT&T "You Will" Ads Come True!

Do any of you remember the ads that used to run in 1993 from At&T;? They advertised, at the time, futuristic ideas about being able to pay a toll without stopping at a toll booth, or opening doors by the sound of your voice, or the touch of your hand. Well, if you've noticed, everything that was mentioned in the ads came true. It's not unusual to see people on camera while you're talking to them over the internet, or slide a credit card at a machine to buy tickets to something. The use of people in modern life is decreasing. More and more jobs, are being handed over to machines. However, some technology is truly fascinating, and helpful. It makes life easier, and lines faster. Does is scare you that AT&T; predicted almost exactly the new technology we would be using 10 years later?

The Office- The Musical [Video]

Someone made a musical montage from the NBC show 'The Office' making it into 'The Office- The Musical.' I personally found it to be very funny, but that's partly because I am a huge fan of the show. If you watch The Office a lot, you'll find the humor. If you're not weekly fan of Dwight, Jim, Pan, Michael, and the rest of the gang... you may not find it as humorous. I hope you enjoyed The Office- The Musical

Annoying News Flash #1: Skittles on Twitter.

Skittles are back in black... or color; whatever. Evidently Skittles.com is doing a re-launch of the "taste the rainbow" candy site and was the flavor of the day on social-networking sites like Twitter. The "new" skittles site has more info about the candy and is reaching out to media sites like Facebook, Youtube and of course, Twitter. In fact, Skittles decided to search Twitter feeds during the re-launch, and feature Twitter blogs that talked anything about the flavorful, rainbow candy. In a time of recession, ain't nothing like some sugary, rainbow infused candy to make you happy, right!? Well, that's what the Skittle company is hoping for. What makes me angry is the fact that Twitter is dominating big markets. Does anyone else feel that Twitter is just another invasion of privacy or another outlet for narcissistic people? Because, seriously... I don't need to know when you're going to the bathroom, when you're eating lunch, that your stuck in traffic, picking your nose, hate the Lakers or that you get to leave work early when I am still stuck behind my computer. If it's really important or hilariously funny, send me a text message. If you don't have my number, there is probably a good reason for that. If you happen to hate Skittles, there is a website for that too... check out Taste The Failbow. And what the heck is skittle fisting?
