Stop to consider how many bad drivers you see on a daily basis. Now that you're thinking about it think about how many times people have probably called you a bad driver. Now fix that. Thanks, the world's a safer place with turn signals.

When did selling out your friends entitle you to a free gift? I hate the increasing amount of "send this to your friend and we'll give you the gift" marketing that is becoming a staple of the college mali I'm getting. Oh but the government wouldn't do such a thing? Nope, my army flier exemplifies this sell yourself ideaology.

So I found this article via Slashdot about how this person couldn't wait for all nine Star Wars movies to come out like they were supposed to by 1997. Well we're a little more than half-way there now with five down and four to go. However, I don't believe the final three will ever be made. So I guess we really only may have one left. Bummer.
I booted Knoppix for the first time today. It's the coolest thing I've seen since the iPod first came out. For those of you with no clue what I'm talking about it's an operating system on a CD, based off of Linux. This means that your computer won't load Windows, but instead will boot into Knoppix. I'm not going to recommend it for those of you who aren't very computer savy but if you are go ahead and enjoy. I was the happiest to see that it auto-detected all my hardware right away and I was up in running in seconds. Hip-hip hurray for Knoppix.
It looks like there is going to be a little "conflict" in Haiti in the immediate future. The rebels are building up outside of the capital and the world doesn't appear to have any desire to come to the aid of the supposed coccaine-trafficing President Jean-Bertrand Aristide. MSN has more on the issue.
I think I'm going insane, my phone keeps phantomly vibrating in my pocket. The sky is falling! On another note I got a new cool hat today from the club, Lisa picked out the color for me which led it to be orange. No complaints.
A search for "taco bell mountain dew" ranks me tenth on Google. That's pretty impressive if you ask me since I'm not actively struggling to combine the two terms. This information was provided Steven Jacowski, master of all that is the Google search.
Taco Bell puts such a good warm feeling in my stomach. So does Mountain Dew.

According to this FastCompany report Des Moines, Iowa is the hippest city in the country. Take that New York. No surprise Janesville isn't the hippest city or even mentioned, national attention for us includes a KKK rally. Sad place. I found this information via Jake's Jive.
I've decided to start off what is the weekend for me with the debut of the BobtheKing RSS feed. You can access it right here. For more info on RSS you should head on over to Lockergnome Dot Com they have a good section on it.
Fixed the Lockergnome link thanks to David Moe.

So more on this check now, as I know I've been keeping you all on the edge of your seats. Due to a class-action lawsuit a bunch of really rich people were forced to pay some not so rich people all the money this money, because they'd been screwing them over. I'll elaborate! The Compact Disc Minimum Advertised Price Antitrust Litigation. The lawsuit was brought about 43 of the 50's States Attorneys Generals. This all was way back in 2002, so long ago. I filled my claim and now here I am today with the check. Yahoo has a good story on it, if you want more.

It's best not to excerise directly after eating to avoid excessive gas. Learned that one in the book about "fluffing" that Alison gave me. Is "fluffing" the politically correct term? Can you say "fluff" in school and not get yelled at? Probably not.
Bomb. Bomb. Bomb.

Interesting to note that my buddies at Snapple have informed me that there is more phones in Washington D.C. than people.

Taco Bell is the greatest restaraunt that ever ruled the planet. Today thanks to the powers that be (the ones that don't push the order complete button) I was allowed to get 8 tacos, four of which were free. They accidentally made my order twice and I accidentally took it twice. It was simply awesome and went down great with my free cinnamon twists. The Mountain Dew I had with it was also superb, thanks to its Code Red variety. Free tacos at Taco Bell are about the coolest thing I can think of on a Friday.
Hip hip hurray for free food (and Friday)!

Looks like the RIAA has gone and done it again, suing another 531 people. Hope it wasn't you. However if it was you, you should write a book and go on a Pepsi commercial that'll help pay for your settlement costs. Wired News has the full story.

I love it when a solicitor calls asking for money to support a random cancer foundation and states right up-front that she wants a donation. Next time she should just start by begging me to talk about how my parents just died in . Last night it was a car crash with a semi, bummer.
On a completely seperate note that Michael Jordan guy is in Janesville right now, pretty big moment. My source says he's at Lemans as they're trying to get him to be sponsor of their motocross division.

So it appears the evil media companies are asking the Charlie Brown to be pulled down all over, well leave it to BtK to keep you in touch. Here's a working link (as of right now).

See Charlie Brown dance to that annoying Outkast song.
You're a winner. I have linked to tons of new and legal (for you lawsuit wimps) Saves the Day mp3's on the music page. If you're into that whole alternative rock thing you should check them out. If not, what the heck is wrong with you, silly kid.

Mad City Train Show today. Score, I like trains.

Wow, the college mail list has grown very fast. Check it out.
Happy Thursday. I hope you smell good. Or something.
Either way, the last two days have proved to be short of news. Well other than the crazy lady at McDonalds that almost hit the shaggin' wagon (read 1992 Plymouth Voyager) when she refused to accept that a stop sign was in front of her. Oh yeah, and the fact that Taco Bell is great. Frozen pizza is still king, however. I'm also happy for gas, it smells so good. Yeah, and stuff.
It's also been noted by without much debate that Fez feels the only reason for the existance of girl's tennis is Anna K. Check a previous post for more on that.
Have a good day, don't fart too much.

Looks like Russia has some trouble on their hands, although nothing new for them. A Presidential Candidate appears to have been murdered, and they've ruled there isn't a need for an investigatoin. Get the full story. My question is what is going right in Russia? They have that Anna Kournikova she's ho... wait, no she's not. Man Russia is screwed.

And I thought Craig drivers were bad. Wow, those foreigners from like Beloit and Clinton apparently haven't seen a parking lot before. If any you had to take your ACT this morning at Craig High School you would know what I'm talking about. If you didn't have to, consider a parking lot where all the cars didn't park in stalls and then they all try to back-up at the same time.
On a second note I think they should give a way some kind of prize for completeing the ACT. How about a free ticket to Noah's Ark?

It's been ruled pizza ovens are just about the coolest invention since coffee table books about coffee tables. The advent of the pizza oven is of course due to the brilliant design of the frozen pizza. Frozen pizza stands to be perhaps the greatest marvel of modern science to date other than the MP3.

If you haven't had the chance yet you should check out the music of Lucky Boy Confusion. I'm especially a fan of the song Mr. Wilmington. It's a punk/pop/emo kind of mix thing, similar to Saves The Day.

Incubus's new album, A Crow Left of the Murder, comes out on Feburary 3rd. For those of you playing along at home that's tomorrow. I do plan on getting the album and will let you all know how good it sounds in my ears; it is rock and roll and rock and roll is all about how it makes you feel good when you hear it in your ears. I'm already enjoying the new single Megalomaniac, which is a return to the sound of the Make Yourself album.

It appears Mountain Dew will be left out of Pepsi's 100 million song giveaway. iTunes had a good chance of getting some money from me, but I guess not so much anymore. I guess the truth will be told once the promotion starts.
