How to Sh*t in the Woods |
|
|
|
4/7/2010 3:48:44 PM |
|
"We’ve all been there—a weight in your lower gut is prohibiting you from
expressing your true freedom on the slopes. A medicine ball crammed in
your intestines, causing you to squeeze cheek in fear of turning those
nice white briefs into a muddy, tie-dye brown. You have to sh*t, and
your only viable alternative is chancing it, which will most likely end
in catastro-feces all over your all-over print, or head for the hills to
squat and thrust your way to browntown greatness." |

Forgot Password Page |

I realized we didn't have a forgot password page. So I graciously went ahead and created one for all of you. This way if you forget your password you aren't totally boned when you try to log in.
If you don't have an email address tied to your account, this page won't help you much.

In case you were wondering, this Saturday is PI day. And in honor of that CNN made a page that has PI out to 10,000 places.
So just in case you need to know the 7,543rd value of PI is, now you don't have to look any further.

What do toys tell us about racial issues? |
|
 |
|
3/9/2010 1:09:01 PM |
Good Morning America recreated the famous doll experiment from the 1940's which asked black children which doll they liked the most, which one looked like them the most etc.
While a large portion of the answers have changed since them it is still kind of shocking that the black girls are split 50/50 about which one is prettier. While the boys don't seem to care at all.

REOIV.com Smart 404 Page |
|
|
|
3/5/2010 11:54:08 AM |
Ok guys this is kinda cool. I have been toying around with the 404 error page so that it can kind of guess what you're looking for. Basically what it does is look at what you put in the title bar and then checks it against the database to see if we have anything matching that at all.
So if you put in 'MP3s' it will look for any link with MP3 in the title, then any image then any link text with 'MP3' in it.
Or lets say you try 'Cake Fat Bride' it will look at link titles, images, link descriptions then break it down into pieces and search for both items in the title, images and descriptions. (This example by its very nature won't work BTW because it will find this link first before it breaks down the phrase into Cake, Fat and Bride)
Kinda neat if you can't quite remember if we had that link already or what exactly it was called again.

Food Storage Calculator |
|
|
|
1/4/2010 11:47:08 AM |
After reading One Second After I started thinking about how much food I'd have to stock pile for everyone and found this handy dandy online calculator.
Plug in the people and hit the button. Only problem I could see with stockpiling that much food is dealing with all the bugs and rodents you'd eventually attract.
