Bag of Randomness

Posted on 30 December 30, 2008 by Geeding
  • I’ve thought about upgrading to a better TV recently, and then yesterday WifeGeeding calls me at work and tells me that the TV isn’t working?  Is it a sign from above, or temptation?  Long story short, I stayed ‘humbled’ and replaced the bulb and all was well.  Actually, better than well, it’s much brighter and sharper.
  • I’m staring to learn that just about everything I need to know repair wise can be found on the Intertubes.  For instance, here’s a video and pictures on how to replace the bulb on my TV.
  • I’m still really tempted to buy an Blueray DVD player, but I we just don’t watch many movies to justify the cost.  Maybe when they start to drop closer to the $150 I’ll consider.
  • That last line reminds of a scene from ‘The Wedding Singer‘ where the ‘bad guy’ states he just spent something like $5000 on a CD player.  Remember, the movie took place in 1985.
  • A collection of weird car accidents.  Link
  • Quite possibly the worst family Christmas card ever.  Link
  • Most of Christmas day was spent watching a House marathon.
  • I really need my 401k to rebound from last year.
  • A photo collection of dogs that chased a dude’s car.  Link
  • For you fellow 30 Rock fans, this glove story might be entertaining.
  • Speaking of 30 Rock, when I drove to visit the in-laws I listened to some sort of interview with the cast and crew that I downloaded off of iTunes.  It was in that interview that I discovered that one of Jane Krakowski’s first movie roles was in Nation Lampoons Vacation as cousin Vicki.
  • Through marriage, I actually have a cousin Vicki.
  • I’ve decided that I will no longer purchase the NFL Ticket on DirecTV.
  • One of my best purchases of 2008 was my custom made arch supports.  My back and my feet are thankful.
  • As you know, I’m a U2 nutcase, but I’m disappointed the band is coming out with five editions of the new album.  That’s just silly.
  • I remember when Jerry fired Barry Switzer and one of my friends put together a resume of all his high school and Madden accomplishments and sent it in to Jerry with a cover letter.
  • I actually sent Jerry a wedding invitation back in the day.  The idea came from a friend who was a Packers fan.  He sent a wedding invitation to them and actually got a very nice thank-you letter in return.  I didn’t hear anything from Jerry.
  • I’m a passionate Cowboys fan, but I don’t think I would go this far.  And surely there has to be YouTube video of this somewhere.
  • I’ve meant to post this a while back, but I’ve found the absolute best pet stain remover in the history of ever.  Eco-88.  All you have to do is spray very liberally and that’s it.
  • DogGeeding isn’t a young pup, and I’ve notice for a while now that when I play with him he no longer does his energetic strut.  However, I found some healthy treats for him at Petsmart that I have to him for Christmas.  Ever since I’ve been feeding them to him his strut has returned.
  • WifeGeeding could eat at Chick-Fil-A everyday I’m convinced.
  • There’s a radio station in town that is still playing non-stop Christmas music.  That should have stopped by the 26th at the latest.
  • Sarah Palin’s grandson is a Tripp.

    I could probably eat at chick-fil-a everyday too. It never disappoints.

    I have two older dogs, ages 10 and 11. Can you tell me what kind of dog treats those were?

    The PetSmart “Authority” brand dog food is awesome too. We have used it for 6 years now and our Golden has maintained a healthy weight consistently and the Vet is always pleased to see her keeping a good figure. Not once was it ever mentioned during the big dog food recall debacle. My heart goes out to anyone that lost a pet due to that.

    Happy New Year!
