Thursday the 19th

It's just as rare as a Friday the 13th, maybe I should get spooked about this...

This video is hitting everyone on the web, so if you haven't seen it, you should...

Very funny stuff... Some people, from the comments below it, don't quite realize that Will Ferrell isn't actually yelling at the kid... Editing can be your friend...

Today, I attended a day long workshop/conference on alcohol education at colleges. Quite interesting stuff, got to meet some cool people, and I got a free book out of it, so it can't be that bad!

I have to mention that after I said that my birthday was done, I got one more gift from Mr. Paik, the first season of Ricky Gervais's show Extras, which is shown on the BBC and HBO. It's a riot, very well done! I'll have to pick up the BBC "The Office," which I've only seen bits of on DVD at other people's places.

Patrick Stewart: You've seen Star Trek, haven't you?

Ricky Gervais: No, haven't caught it.

Patrick Stewart: Ah, you're married.

Ricky Gervais: No... Not married.

Patrick Stewart: Ah, okay, you have a girlfriend!

Ricky Gervais: No, no girlfriend.

Patrick Stewart: You're not married, you don't have a girlfriend, and you've never seen Star Trek?

Ricky Gervais: No, can't say I have...

Patrick Stewart: Good Lord.

Funny stuff, much funnier in delivery than I can put into words here... Find it and watch it, if you can!

The joy of presales...

This morning, I found out that there's going to be a Genesis concert at Madison Square Garden on September 25th, on top of the Giants Stadium show I already have tickets for on September 27th.

The Genesis website fanclub presale was this morning at 10am, so I limbered up my fingers, and got tickets in Section 102. Groovy!

This evening, we had our second Group Process interview for Resident Assistant positions here at the college. It was a good time, I always enjoy watching the candidates interact in groups. Then tomorrow and Thursday, they'll do individual interviews, and then we decide who to hire...

That's all for now, just a quick update...

Tires!

So, this weekend, I went and got new tires for my car. My old ones, I got in about the year 2000, and it was time for a change. They were also snow tires, from when I lived up north. They may have contributed to my transmission issues back in October 2006, as the snow tires cause more drag/resistance between the car and the road, so that was another reason to change the tires.

I always knew the snow tires made more of a sound, because of their bigger treads. Now, with the new tires, my car is riding very quietly! It's amazing, I didn't expect it to be that big of a difference, but the sound is much less in my car now.

Late last week, Sue and I made our reservations for our summer vacation on Martha's Vineyard. We'll be staying in Oak Bluffs, in a little hotel there. We'll have to share a bathroom with 3 other rooms, but that's fine, as the rooms are about $80 cheaper per night compared to other places. I'll be sure to post a full review after we get back in July.
