No I Didn't Forget: I'm Watching Free HBO on my laptop.

Yes I know it's Friday and no I didn't forget. I've been busy house hunting for mom & dad in Asheboro... yes, Asheboro! The place is like the Dukes of Hazard down there. This on top of an interesting desktop application which allows me to watch Free HBO on our laptop anywhere... no strings attached, has also been keeping me up late at night. For instance, last night I missed Survivor.... but I switched on my laptop and waited for it to air on the west coast, and badaboom! There I am, watching Survivor at midnight in Greensboro, Live!. This is way to cool.

I'm guessing the company is re-broadcasting FTA, or Free to Air satellite signals, over the internet via peer to peer networks. 10-1 this is the next big thing. Get me an Evdo card and I can watch live tv from the seat of my car driving down the interstate. Wow!

Their site is Viidoo.com, but their downloads are a bit slow, so I uploaded the setup file to greensboring's servers if you want to check it out.



The weeks been a crazy one for me. I've been sick, I've completed fixing several canonicalization issues on the site, and have been trying to keep up on whats going on around the Internet. Surprisingly it's been a pain in the butt, but not nearly as painful as this: Someone has invented the George W. Bush Butt Plug:

If that doesn't make you piss your pants that someone in this world might actually be doing something very nasty to our presidents likeness, then maybe this will. Men can now enjoy the beauty and wonder of urinating in their very own flower urinal:

Somewhere in all this madness, I stumbled across the mini-dancing Indian. We're not sure exactly whats wrong here, but it beats the heck out of watching another TMX Elmo clip.



Of course if you were unsure if that was a baby or a midget, then this next clip might clear it up. Oh and for all of you 30 year old head bangers excited about Guns & Roses coming.... please, whatever you do, don't teach your child this:



This is your brain, this is your brain on guns:



If you've been contemplating what to do with that pool you bought the kids this summer and don't know what to do with it, May I suggest the $200 dollar indoor pool?
