american gladiators returns?

August 22, 2007 · Leave a Comment

i’m watching last comic standing and neglected to hit fast forward because i’m trying hard to catch up on my 700+ unread feed items – can’t seem to hit ‘j’ fast enough. i swear i just saw a commercial that said american gladiators is coming back. that would be so killer. it was definitely one of the best-slash-most entertaining shows evar.

wikipedia confirms my suspicions and hallucinations. that is all.

gizmodo and college humor make me laugh

If this doesn’t make you laugh – you are not as big of a geek as I am:

maybe slightly NSFW, due to language and such, depending on where you work.

(sxp) SocialXperience. Social Networking Straight from the Source.

one of my college roommates, Todd, has got this social networking side/blog together ^above, duh. I don’t know a whole lot about it, but since I have a blog, I feel the urge to give him a link back. i’ll add him to my “blogroll” as well and hope things go well for his site. he’s a genius by the way and probably better than tiger woods at golf :)

another case of the little things making me happy

August 10, 2007 · Leave a Comment

so, i got an oil change on sunday. my car is new enough that i could be going to the dealership for this type of thing, but i don’t think of it when they’re open. i decided to call up my friends at firestone – needless to say, it took 4 calls to find one who could fit me in on a sunday afternoon. anywho, that was sunday – today is friday and i recieved a nice “thank you” card from the shop. it was obviously a form letter and probably didn’t cost them much time or money, but they did take the time to include my name, car model, and the “recommended maintenance” they had suggested – along with a coupon for a free check on that recommendation. this is a little above and beyond in my opinion and i want to congratulate the eastgate firestone for this nice touch. i wish more business were run with this kind of care – and, by the way, this was the first time i had ever gone to this shop. even though i was already pretty loyal to firestone, this will just help to cement the feeling.
