Public Bathrooms

Posted by: theprotagonist5 on: November 7, 2007

I am a bit peeved with the bathrooms here at work. They are always awful and never clean. They have someone come in and clean but they really don’t clean. The faucets are always grimy, the doors are all grey with dirt and the whole thing smells. I wonder if it has always been this [...]

Google gives directions at the Gas Pump

Posted by: theprotagonist5 on: November 7, 2007

In the News today said that Google is partnering with a gas pump manufacturer to provide screens in the pumps that you can get driving directions on while your car is pumping gas. I think this is a good idea since I drive around lost a lot and a directions kiosk would be very helpful. [...]

If you are one of those people who watch the UK rocketry association with interest as the TopGear guys launch a mini from a ski jump or blast a car named robin into space ala space shuttle you may be able to get into rockets too as a hobby. There are a lot of rules and regulations as [...]

TopGear Season 10 Episode 4 Review – Drive Across African Desert

Posted by: theprotagonist5 on: November 7, 2007

This week’s show was not the funniest one ever. It was really about jaw dropping risk and edge of your seat drama in a more serious sense. I was drawn to the show’s risky challenges of driving across most of the continent of Africa in old used cars and was suprised that they [...]

Who is Howard Miller?

Posted by: theprotagonist5 on: November 7, 2007

I have heard a lot about this Howard Miller guy lately. I was shopping the other day and saw some displays for grandfather clocks by him and the prices were pretty steep. They were kind of an heirloom type fancy clock that gets passed down from generation to generation. My parents have one and my [...]
