Lost

Monday, June 16th, 2008

Happy Father’s Day!

In my family it’s flashlights. He’s gotta have about 50 of ‘em by now.

Mail Order Air (’cause, ya know…there might be a shortage)

Friday, June 6th, 2008

Our dishwasher was recently recalled. And by recalled, I mean they sent a repair guy out to replace the inner door panel and a bunch of wiring. This had to be done because, apparently, if we ran it just right…it would clean the dishes so thoroughly that it would burn the house down.
I don’t really [...]

Institutional Incompetence

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

This story is a tragedy…pure debacle.
The summary:
1) Dallas Police put out a “bait” car…a car to attract car thieves and trap them by remotely disabling the car and locking its doors (with the thief inside) when it is stolen.
2) Car thief steals the bait car.
3) Dallas Police fail to disable the bait car. They said [...]
