The S Word Blog: A mostly 100% sort-of-semi-technical blog by Thin Guy. Mostly.

My version of an open letter to ThinkGeek.com

I sent you an email almost three days ago (aka forever in blogtime) for a product idea.  CafePress is making money on this (a lot more than is going to charity.  Sigh.) 

Trouble is people want black shirts, white text.  It's for a good cause.

Perhaps I should have taken a commentors advice and asked Giant Robot Printing instead.

Perhaps I will.

Update:  GRB answered my email right away.  Look for $10 shirts (including black w/ white text) soon.

It doesn't seem that long ago when the Wiggles were having a Wiggly good time rocking out in the Bahamas.  Ah yes, I can still hear the words to Fruit Salad if I put a conch shell to my ear...

The whole gang was there.  Well, perhaps not the whole gang.  We all know about Jeff.   Captain Feathersword couldn't make it either, something about so and so having scurvy.  (I'm sure that there are some out there that feel that the lack of the Captain's presence is a result of poor bundling.  Not true!)

As all good things must come to an end, so did our vacation with the Wiggles.  On a sad note, we seemed to have lost Anthony.  Rumor has it he stole away in a shoppers bag at the duty free liquor store.  Here's to you Anthony, I hope you're enjoying some of Appleton's finest...You friggin' lush!

The trip home was fine and the Wiggles provided hours of entertainment for the girls.  However in the weeks and months that followed our trip, something strange was happening.

One by one, the Wiggles were disappearing!  Was it a protest for not bringing Jeff?  Did they venture off on their own to find Anthony?  Was a Wiggle intervention in the works? 

Crikey!  We were up a gum tree!

That was until we discovered a dirty little secret about Shitzu's.  They love the taste of Australian bands that cater to preschool children! 

Witness the horror of this canine's unsaitable appetite for it's prey.

Unfortunately Sun's Blogging Policy prohibits me from showing what happened to Wags and Greg.  To put it nicely, they're fertilizer.

Come back later for a very special episode of Pimp My Ride, in which Xzibit tries to undo the damage done to Po's Scooter.  

Here's the before shot:

Is it me or does that new default "My Computer" icon on Windows Vista look vaguely familiar?

How far will this Sun/Microsoft relationship go?
