OK, not really – at least, not ALL of the time! LOL Yeah, I’ll talk about myself some here, what’s going on, random thoughts, and the like. But I’ll also share things I’ve enjoyed, such as books, movies, tv shows, restaurants, whatever. I’ll post links to my reviews for Amazon Vineand Wild on Books, links to interviews I’ve done, recipes, jokes, and more. And I welcome your feedback and discussion via comments. So, that means it isn’t really all about me, I reckon… LOL
Asus has posted a video showcasing the features of their Eee Top desktop PC over at YouTube. This thing is amazing – VERY portable for a desktop PC, it has a touchscreen monitor, surround sound audio out, a chicklit keyboard and more!
Amazon.com is giving a free download of Marvin Gaye’s ‘Let’s Get It On’ only on Friday (2/13/09) and Saturday (2/14/09) in honor of Valentine’s Day! Click the link to access the free download: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001NTNJD2?tag=jenaraysweb-20
And for those of us less lucky in love this Valentine’s Day, enjoy the ultimate break-up song of all time, by Weird Al Yankovic. It’s twisted and wrong, but it never fails to make me laugh, even on the heels of a fresh break-up. You have to love the sappy way Weird Al sings all these vile things… LOL
Well I heard that you’re leavin’ (leavin’)
Gonna leave me far behind (so far behind)
‘Cause you found a brand new lover
You decided that I’m not your kind (aahh..)
So I pulled (I pulled) your name out (name out) of my Rolodex (oohh..)
And I tore all your pictures in two
And I burned down the malt shop where we used to go
Just because it reminds me of you (dippity dippity doo)
That’s right (that’s right) you ain’t gonna see me cryin’
I’m glad (I’m glad) that you found somebody new
‘Cause I’d rather spend eternity eating shards of broken glass
Than spend one more minute with you
I guess I might seem kinda bitter
You got me feeling down in the dumps
‘Cause I’m stranded all alone in the gas station of love
And I have to use the self-service pumps
Oh, so honey, let me help you with that suitcase
You ain’t (you ain’t) gonna break my heart in two
‘Cause I’d rather get a hundred thousand paper cuts on my face
Than spend one more minute with you
I’d rather rip out my intestines with a fork
Than watch you going out with other men
I’d rather slam my fingers in a door (yah)
Again and again and again and again and again
Oh, can’t you see what I’m tryin’ to say, Darlin…
I’d rather have my blood sucked out by leeches (leeches)
Shove an icepick under a toenail or two
I’d rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand Central Station with my tongue
Than spend one more minute with you
Yes, I’d rather jump naked on a huge pile of thumbtacks
Or stick my nostrils together with crazy glue
I’d rather dive into a swimming pool filled with double-edged razor blades
Than spend one more minute with you
I’d rather rip my heart right out of my ribcage with my bare hands
and then throw it on the floor and stomp on it ’till I die…
*Squeak!*
Than spend one more minute with you
OK, so maybe it was a cardboard cutout of him promoting a luggage contest…
STILL. I was very surprised to see our very own Love Boat bartender being used in advertising today, in full cruise ship uniform, no less!
And I’ve been singing that theme song ever since I saw it a couple of hours ago.
Oh, watch the guest stars closely in the video. Yep, that IS sweet little Kim Richards you see there, aka Paris Hilton’s aunt. Who knew that the precious little girl who played Tia on the Witch Mountain movies would ever be related to something like Paris…
My new iPaq PDA/Phone came with an HP Photo program that has a built-in screensaver. All I have to do is point the program to a directory on my iPaq or a storage card inserted in the device, and it will display all of the pictures it finds in that directory as a screensaver.
Currently, I am greatly enjoying a variety of favorite book covers. Of course, I add new covers to this screensaver every day, but with more than a gigabyte of storage still available, I have no need to remove any yet. Which makes me very, very happy…
I’ve read or will read all of the books in this screensaver, and seeing their cover here never fails to bring a smile to my face. It doesn’t hurt that there are some really great books in this collection either. *grin*
Wanna see it? I recorded a video of it on my PC so I could share it… There is no sound, just the pictures. Enjoy!
