I hear rumblings of some new restaurant going there, but since Macys own all that land, who knows when it will get done..

I think I might paint an accent wall once that stickers comes off the door.

So in a couple of weeks, I will be moving offices to make way for for a nw Dean and my boss moving on up to the second floor. I'll still have a windows and now will have an office all to my self! the only question was whether or not I get to keep my really cool nice leather office chair thatI have grown to love. While not a Aeon chair, but just as nice and didn't have to spend an arm and a leg for it, so I really didn't want ot see it go.

Its not what you think.....

Part of Techblogs 5 Most Outrageous Inventions Ever

Pretty sweet.

Summer Hours will begin on Monday, May 21 through Friday, August 17.  Business hours are Monday through Thursday 7:30 am to 4 pm, Friday 7:30 am to 1 pm.

Man this is early, but hey, half day fridays aren't too bad.

I know I am oddly entertained by things. But the thing that I love the most is watching people getting busted for doing stupid, illegal, or just plain immoral things. (i.e. Cops, Cheaters, and a few reality shows)

Ashley Heyer is one of them.. Incase you haven't already heard, she is the "aspiring" policial career freshman from NYU who was busted for trying to use a fake ID at a bar in Manhattan and later  tried to cover up her stupidity by forcing the bartender, Rachel Hyman, to take a scanned image of it off her blog. (Rachel post images of the fake ID she collects on her blog).  Ashley claim its copyright infringment, but we all know is more like covering you butt so your name won't show up on google.

It really irks me when someone breaks a law, then tries to use it to cover it up... 

If you don't bad stuff on the internet about you, then maybe you should be doing bad stuff.

Wanna learn more about it?

'The Computer Guy'

from digg

http://digg.com/tech_news/10_Reasons_Why_It_Doesn_t_Pay_To_Be_The_Computer_Guy

 Reason #6 - You’re Never Allowed A Moment’s Peace

The computer guy is so prone to interruption that he rarely finds an opportunity to work on his own problems. This is because:

1. Computers never sleep.
2. Computer problems aren’t scheduled.
3. Every problem takes time to diagnose.
4. The computer guy can only give one problem his full attention.
5. Each user believes their problem deserves attention now.

Consequently, the computer guy has a 24/7 obligation to keep critical computer systems running, while simultaneously juggling everyone’s problems. He’ll often need to forfeit any opportunities to tend to his own needs for the sake of others — because at any moment, of any day, he can be interrupted by someone who wants to make their problem his problem.
