Let's face it...Internet domain name management isn't the most exciting thing in the world. And yet the team at Porkbun have managed to make it not only visually interesting and fun, they've also managed to cut out a lot of the BS upselling for about as cheap a domain name registration you can get.
Just because I have my hands on the virtual turntables doesn't mean that we are above giving the citizenry what they want. We're democratic. In some ways. :)
I love my Traverse but mending her occasional faults seems to have more than a little frustration thanks to curious design choices by the engineers of the Lambda series…or it’s just that they hate people who want to mend their own vehicle. So imagine my surprise when this little bit of maintenance was actually much less painful than expected… :)
Some of the most fun I have whilst spinning the tunes for MCHL Ironclad is shamelessly abusing my authority over what gets played outside of the games. Take for instance the fun I had with the set for my brother Benjamin’s birthday… :)
There was no shortage of contestants between Enloe High School and my house this morning. See if you can "Spot the Looney"... :)
Senator Hise certainly had a lot to say about those new Congressional district maps he's so proud of but the statement that'll win him the award isn't the one attributed to him that went viral...
Even though the aspiring monarch in Washington DC is certainly the most notorious of those who would wish to subjugate the population to their rule by fiat, there's more than a few would-be kings on Jones Street who have been a problem for far longer than King Donald I...
Millennium Roofing Inc is back (for the fourth time in two months!)...only this time not only are the two sales guys very disrespectful and rude, they're also on notice that the next time they turn up will have a complaint sworn out against them for second degree criminal trespass after warning (NCGS § 14‑159.13).
What do you get when you combine sazón, hot Hungarian paprika, and adobo with caramelised onions and browned ground beef? Tacos that absolutely blew our minds so much that we may never go back to the traditional seasoning... ;)
The portable Bluetooth speaker is much louder than the rink speakers but a tiny little USB to 3.5mm adapter and a far better balanced sound is about a tonne less heavy and a much improved performance quality! :)
You'd think that these people would have taken the hint the last time when they were completely ignored as I was having another conversation in my driveway but then the stupidity was exceptionally strong with this one!
The morning started out a bit harrowing apparently sleeping through the alarm but visiting the front of Alex's school I'd not seen in quite a while showed the Enloe Marching Band's pit crew got a massive upgrade we'd have only dreamt of... :)
I genuinely wanted a happy ending of redemption for this story with every fibre of my being. But not every story gets that happy ending in our modern world so sometimes it's a matter of taking the best option of several evil alternatives and that's how the "Lowe's Blows Saga" will end... :(
Well, I think we can see exactly what Lowe's "Executive Customer Response Team" didn't want me to see when I asked if there were any nasty surprises in the "Release of All Claims" they were wanting me to sign sight unseen before they'd pay out their meagre compensation for their dreadful failures. Fortunately, the Internet never forgets... ;)
Even though Piedmont Airlines disappeared in 1989 after being acquired by US Air two years prior, today’s corporations would do well to treat their customers with the same dignity and respect that made Piedmont a legend in the sky!
To the nice lady in aisle A3 at the White Oak Target this afternoon with tubes of shampoo that just refused all attempts at adequate support...it was a honour and a privilege to hopefully brighten your day just a little bit! :)
That luridly coloured red sign is not only a huge hint, it's actually the law even for those who blithely ignore that posted traffic control device... :(
I'll give Lowe's "Executive Customer Response Team" credit for being very fast at reaching out after the voicemail. But let's just say that their "final settlement offer" really puts the latter half of that quote in the title in perspective, doesn't it?
It's been over a month and Lowe's *STILL* hasn't made anything approaching a good faith effort in putting right what their first installer and many people afterward have done horribly wrong. Time is of the essence for Lowe's to finally get serious and negotiate in good faith...
Through the years, I have come to understand two things: 1) At a certain point in life a man’s hips spread and there’s nothing you can do about it and 2) there’s a very easy way to define friendship. A friend is someone who won’t stop until he finds you and brings you home.
Just when you thought exiting Alex's Chick Fil-A car park was exciting enough, along comes a nitwit who thinks parking up in the lane designated to exit the car park is a brilliant idea. The scary thing is that is not the worst idea they had... :(
Law enforcement was wolf-packing I-40 west something fierce as I was schlepping Alex to work at the Garner Chick Fil-A. When he suggested a song from the Phil Collins playlist that was spinning at the time, I found an even better choice... ;)
Another three weeks and yet again Lowe's shows just how much of a priority actually finding a resolution is to them...
With the Supreme Court's latest travesty of a ruling from it's shadow "emergency docket" and the President's obvious admiration of how Vladimir Putin rules Russia, is it so much of a stretch of the imagination to imagine the ICE gangs who have routinely ignored the Fourth Amendment and the Constitution writ large taking the next step and actually becoming the KGB?
May Supertramp's Rick Davies rest in peace knowing that he gave so much beautiful music to the world and many hours of me trying to hit those high notes in "Goodbye Stranger"! :)
