The new search engine, Cuil, has had a hundreds of redundant stories written about it in the last week and I’m jumping on the bandwagon. I still don’t understand what all the fuss is about, as it is a terrible search engine. It has been produced by a few ex-google employees and is backed by lots of VC money.
I searched for the term “BMW M3 E92″ just to test out the new search engine. I was extremely disappointed when I was presented with this screen below:
Google, however, was able to find 1,180,000 results for the same term. What’s going wrong here?
A few days ago, I found this hilarious shirt at the local Value Village, which is rapidly become my favourite store. Most of my current wardrobe is from either Value Village or the Salvation army. This yellow gem is not a bad addition for $3.99.
The shirt highlights the main reason why I do blog: to be heard.

Blog blog, bloggity blog, blog bloggity, blog, Moo
Also, last winter I found an awesome liquor dispenser, that has since seized up, but we were able to have one bottle of fun out of it first. I think the problem is that we put fireball in it. I am guessing that the sugar in the fireball seized it up.
Yes, me and my housemates just bought a car. It’s a 1985 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight. Pretty nice eh?
I think that we got a great deal, as we only payed $150 for it. As you can see, we’ve already given it a custom paint job. I think that brought the value up to around $2500. There is definitely more to come. We’ve only had the car for a few days and this is what it looks like already.
Check out some pics below. Sorry for the bad quality. The batteries in my camera are dead, so I had to use my phone.
My Macbook is almost approaching its second birthday and it has generally treated me well. Apart from the power cord, I haven’t had any physical problems with it.
Recently, however, the battery has just died. It no longer charges and the computer dies as soon as I unplug it. I have been searching throuh various forums, but none of the solutions that I have tried have worked.
I am not normally into art at all. I have actually even been known to call it evil after a few beers. Nonetheless, I have added an art category to this blog, due to this post.
Here is a photo I did when I was bored. I don’t remember where I got the idea from, but I’m pretty sure that I’m not the first do do it.
I have an HTC Touch, which is pretty much an iPhone, without the cool factor. Here is my artsy photo, that I took with my HTC Touch.
I have many gripes with Facebook. My biggest is that they don’t allow for full resolution photo galleries. They even have the guts to try to get people to buy prints at crappy resolution. I have swallowed my pride and have pretty much come to terms with the uselessness of facebook albums.
Recently, I have been receiving a lot of invites to the the application “Watch this video.” This application is totally useless, and unnecessary. It only exists because a few developers wanted to jump on the Facebook application ad revenue bandwagon. What I don’t understand is how can people not see through this transparency of applications like this, and why don’t people just send links to youtube if they want me to watch this video. Having to install a Facebook application just to view a video is just crazy. That’s the end of my rant!
