Dumb Product Warning Labels

On a public toilet, "Recycled water unsafe for drinking."

Somewhere in America, there's at least one person who made that warning label necessary.

Zodiac sign you were meant for meme

You scored as Aquarius. You get along best with the sign of Aquarius. Although Aquarians can be seem very odd, or over opinionated, they are good generous people. They are the humanitarians of the zodiac; they always put others in the place of themselves. Aquarians have a strong sense of individuality, and likewise, can be very eccentric. They usually have many friends because they are very easy to get along with, although at times, Aquarians can be withdrawn and introverted when they choose to be.

Death, taxes and science fiction but not in that order

Just finished e-filing our 2004 tax return. It was a nice thing not to have to wait on a dial-up connection like last year. It cut down on the time it took to file. I'm hoping for an iPod, however, while doing a load of laundry, Rachel and I heard a really loud * BOOM! * from the laundry room while the washer started to go into its first spin cycle. Rachel moved the switch onto the rinse cycle to see what would happen next. The washer ended up going on to the final spin cycle, but nothing. Noise, yes, but no spinning. We could smell a fainting burning odor from the washer, and when Rachel opened up the washer, there was some slight wisps of smoke from it as well.

In my opinion, the washer is most likely D.O.A. If we chose to put a call in for a repairperson, I get a feeling we'll spend just as much to get it fixed as we would getting into a new washer. Maybe? My opinion, anyway. I get a feeling that's going to put a kibosh on my iPod dreams. Oh well, I still need a new hard drive to hold all the music I eventually want to have on my iPod, so perhaps it's for the best. Sadness.

If I haven't mentioned it recently, I'm really loving Battlestar Galactica. A lot. The new Cylon raiders are just SO cool--as evidenced by my choice of Cylon raider wallpaper.

Fox Movie Channel is running Big Trouble in Little China right now, and ever since I read somewhere that Buckaroo Banzai was supposed to run into Jack Burton at one time, I've always imagined what that would've been like. That Lo Pan is one crazy joker. Loving this movie, too. "Chinese have a lot of hells."

Lastly, did Predator 2 really need a special edition?

Favorite part

One of my favorite parts of Big Trouble in Little China is just before the final battle when Jack Burton fires his machine gun upwards and then gets knocked out by falling debris.

Good ol' Jack Burton.
