I literally just had a 10 second phone conversation that went something like:

You get the thing?
Yeah.
You talk to the guy?
Yeah.
Good, c-ya.

I hope the feds aren’t tapping my phone.

Am I the only one who ends up having hallucinogenic dreams after taking NyQuil? I’ve been sick as a dog this week and finally decided to give NyQuil a shot the other night. Long story short, I spent the entire evening battling demons after being shrunk down to the size of a pea. Suddenly the wrinkles in my blankets were mountains and I was convinced I needed to tramp through them down to my dogs at the foot of the bed. I think I made it about half-way before daybreak.

Then last night I realized DayQuil has the exact same benefits as its counterpart, minus all the crazy.

Is it wrong that I’m slightly missing the crazy?

EDIT: Yeah, thanks for telling me that video was dead now, losers. It’s back to the NBC link.

EDIT: I changed the link to a different video site because NBC sucks.

Somebody get this man his own TV show. He’s been the most entertaining part of the Olympics by far. I’d pay good money just to have him follow me around and provide commentary on whatever I was doing.

Datz a good typing. Yes, yes, go to Shyzer! Ohh, ohhhh, de page is loading! Itz haz loaded!!!! Jou are champion at ze Internetz!! Woooo!

Ever wonder which countries are still holding out against using the metric system?

So, uh, if you haven’t seen the Lost finale that aired tonight, you probably don’t want to highlight the text below. But if you have seen it…

DESMOND! PENNY!!! OH MY GOD, I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING SO SOON!

I just had to get that off my chest.

We’re about to have a scavenger hunt over on HIF, this time using Google Maps. All (three) of you who still read Shyzer should go sign up and participate!

Also, I’m contemplating going back and deleting a far bit of content I’ve posted here in the past. Nothing from the best of Shyzer list, but random posts (like this) that don’t serve any real purpose months down the line. If there’s anything you especially enjoy reading, you might want to save it now.

Then again, who knows if I’ll actually do it. That’s a lot of work for not much gain, you know? It might be worth while, seeing as how liberating I already feel with The Great Purge that is getting underway.

Anybody want to buy a few websites? It’s time to pare down my list of daily on-line duties and make a little cash while I’m at it. There’s no better way to do that than by a firesale!

I’m sitting on hold at 2:30am and have been listening to a variation of elevator music for the past 3 1/2 hours. They really shouldn’t call it 24-hour support if you can’t get support for this long.

Maybe they meant you had to wait 24 hours before you get the help.

I’m putting together a list of charities, specifically ones that deal with children and animals, for an upcoming project that I’m about to launch. I’ve got the usual ones, like Make-a-wish, Humane Society, etc. but I’m looking for any lesser known ones that anybody out there might have special ties or interests in seeing helped.

So here’s your chance to maybe get a few (hopefully tons, though!) extra cash and support to your favorite charity. Sound away in the comments or contact me directly.

Below are a collection of random thoughts I had this morning. None of them were enough to develop into a full post, but together, they make a barely passable post.

Whoever is in charge of making video tributes over at ESPN is a genius. I don’t know what orchestral database this guy has access to, but every single snippet he’s plucked from it is strong both in sound and spirit. I’m not even talking about all the Favre pieces were on last week. I first noticed this back in 2003, when they had Kiefer Sutherland doing a voiceover tribute to Pat and Kevin Tillman for winning the Arthur Ashe award. I’ve still yet to find a copy of that tribute either, which is a shame. It took ESPN years to finally put some of their goofy “This is Sportscenter” commercials up on their site – why they don’t also put their tributes up as well is beyond me. This further shows how companies are failing to adapt to the Internet.

Even though I love the fact that it’s still light outside at 6pm, how come it takes me weeks to get used to it? Yet jetlag takes 24, or 48 hours max, to overcome?

I just cooked and ate some lunch. Just throwing that out there.

Airline has got to be the most pointless show ever. What were they thinking when they came up with this idea? “Hey, you know what I hate? Travel delays! Wait, let’s make a show about that!” Every episode is the same. You’ve got one person angry about a flight delay, another person is drunk, and look at that third person who missed her connection! I can’t wait to see what happens next week. I’ve got my fingers crossed for an ice storm!

Why is it that people are commended for doing things late in life (old people getting college degrees or learning a new language, etc.) and proving that it’s “never too late” to do practically anything. Yet people who don’t achieve some sort of “accomplishment” (marriage, college graduation, etc.) by a certain age are deemed to be “failing,” whatever the hell that means. Talk about double standard.

Okay, I’m still stuck on this stupid Airline show. What do people not understand about a standby ticket? They’re flying on a ticket that cost pennies on the dollar, if not free. Everybody else paid full fare. You do the math as to who will be kicked off if there are too many people. How is this a complicated concept to the majority of the American population?

Super Smash Brothers Brawl is an extremely fun game, but whoever wrote the story for the single player mode has to be the same person who comes up with ideas for new Japanese game shows (edit: hahaha). It. Makes. No. Sense. The fact that there’s no vocal dialogue probably doesn’t help matters. They need to have a disclaimer on the case saying only to play it if you’re both drunk and high.

Sleep pants are awesome.

There’s been a black plastic bag stuck in some tree branches in my back yard for at least a year. It now looks like a giant vampire cape when the wind blows. I think I’ll make up a story and scare Colton with it tonight.

That’s all for now.
