Peeved Wednesday – The Right Way to Hang Toilet Paper

November 4, 2009

No matter how rarely it happens, the travesty of a poorly hung roll of toilet paper is an affliction which could not happen at a worse time.  Especially when the roll hanger is under lock and key.  So, I’ll do a little something to help the world.

The right way to hang toilet paper is to have the loose part draped over the top.  Observe below.

The proper way to hang toilet paper.

Who’s more Stupid? The Blogger or the One Who Follows the Blogger

November 3, 2009

As stated earlier, this blog is first and foremost an SEO tool. Through the research I’ve done on Search Engine Optimization and increasing Web Presence, many sources say to blog, and blog a lot. The content doesn’t even have to be that good, just fresh. I’m more than aware that most of the stuff people put online is one-sided drivel that I, for one, never have any interest in reading, unless there’s some kind of easy-to-digest list of quirky movie moments or lots of hilarious photos with snarky captions. Therefore, for those of you who hate going to a blog with a huge block of words, here’s a funny picture of a bunny stealing a cookie.

No matter what rose-tinted NPR and PBS reporting would have you believe, the amazing new influence of the blogger and the unprecedented communication allowed by Twitter and Facebook is a load of garbage. Do you have a Facebook account? Do you really care what someone you barely knew in high school did at the bar last night, or that they’re so ready for the weekend? This new technology is just a bigger form of a dorm bulletin board that no one reads. The reason it’s so appealing to people is that they can post little quips and witticisms that they think are funny. To tell you the truth though, 1 out of every 50 comments are actually original and insightful, but they’re still not really worth paying attention to. Hey, this dog’s making a funny face:

So, with my stupid blog, I’m going to try to post interesting, fun, and useful information without any material that couldn’t be mentioned in mixed company. Unfortunately, I’ll also put up some shameless self serving links, but that’s the true nature of the game. So, please follow my posts, and, hopefully, you won’t be too disappointed.

Here’s another funny dog.

Remember Kenny King’s

November 2, 2009

My wife and I currently live in Massachusetts, and are originally from Akron;  so, it’s always great to find things from Akron/Cleveland.  We stumbled across this in the tie section at a discount store, “Building 19”, on the west side of Providence.

I saw it and immediately thought it would be great blog fodder.  I was even willing to shell out the $2.  (Turns out it was actually half-off)  The big question we have is whether it’s a weird bow-tie, a woman’s hair bow, or even a female tie from the 80’s.  (Please add comments if you know for sure)

Anyway, my wife was only slightly aware of what Kenny King’s was because I mentioned it in the past, but for those who are not aware of what this place was, around the 50s, before Kentucky Fried Chicken was its own franchised fast food joint, Colonel Sanders sent a kit for his chicken out to sit-down restaurants around the country and Kenny King’s was the one in Cleveland.  Howard Stern recently mentioned on his show going to such a diner on Long Island as a kid, and how his father still kicks himself for not investing in the Colonel back then.  Eventually, by the time I was a kid going to a Kenny King’s in Euclid with my family, it was pretty much the exact same thing as KFC except that there were waitresses and everything was on plates.

Here’s an image from a former Kenny King’s in West Park

Here’s an old menu. I found on a site called BereaOhioProject all featuring facts an Nostalgia from Berea on the west side of Cleveland.

As forewarned in the description of the blog, I mainly just created this site as a Search Engine Optimization tool; so, occasionally I’ll post a link to a site.  However, since it’s impolite to do it a lot, I’ll keep it to once a week.  So here it is.

My main site features some fun things: pictures and images of my student art work, sites i’ve worked on, and a game where you can feed my dog, Frinky.
