Individually Wrapped Lemon Slices

Just so that everyone knows, I am aware of the health risks associated with unwashed hands and how hands play a major part in spreading diseases, but sometimes too much is too much. See exhibit a:
Individually wrapped lemons slices.

I'm not even sure I want to know who's job it is to cut up lemons and then put what looks like a scrub cap on them one at a time.

Mind you, this was at the Riverside Convention Center
I was there for a Microsoft Launch Event (mostly for the free swag)

Phone Bunny

Last night we went for a walk and were able to get really close to a bunny near our townhouse. I didn't have a real camera, so I took a couple of pictures of him with my phone.

Monkey's and Bacon

Andy Inhatko has the greatest quote I've seen today. In blogging about the new iPhone SDK he mentions the following:

Monkeys are like bacon. They improve just about anything.

Here's the article:

Hulu

So, I'm not a huge fan of Flash Video. Personally I think the quality is not the best, and it is only playable if you are connected to the internet and are using a web browser. However, given all of that I was recently Invited to the private beta of Hulu. This is an interesting attempt to put full length TV shows on a website that is not owned by the TV station. Also they allow embedding episodes into blogs, websites, etc.

For your viewing pleasure I present a sample of embedded Hulu video. This is an episode of House (currently the most recent one aired on TV) called "Games"

Cake


At work today we had a Christmas celebration for a great year. Unfortunately I wasn't as responsible for the great year since I've only been here 6 months. You may be wondering what's up with the cake. Well, you can get custom pictures put on a cake. Most people use pictures of their children or spouse, my company chose to use a graph. The graph signifies unfixed defects. The good news is that the graph is going down. This was our reason to celebrate. We went to a bowling alley and played a few frames. I actually did pretty well for myself. I scored a 152 on the first game and a 112 on the second. Not bad for not playing in a while.
