Long Time to add Groundhog Day?

Sometimes I get amazed at how long some simple tasks take.  Like this one, for example, which was adding holidays to my Outlook calendar.  It took a few seconds to add Groundhog Day.

Axe Garlic Scent

There's a long story here.  I'm not going to go into it.  New Axe Garlic Scent!  Click on the image for a larger view.

DISCLAIMER: This is not a real product.  If you even thought for one remote second that Axe actually made a Garlic scent, you need to do the world a favor and kill yourself, considering that your intelligence level is that of a shovel.

REAL DISCLAIMER: I don't work for Axe, but I do use some of their products.  I did not ask Axe for permission to use their can likeness, so hopefully they won't decide to sue me.

Browser Wars

After seeing http://www.joyoftech.com/joyoftech/joyarchives/1120.html, I had to redo it in PhotoShop using the latest mess I found in the shit that is Internet Explorer 7.  Click for a larger (legible) image.

After seeing that, you can check out http://arstechnica.com/journals/microsoft.ars/2006/8/16/4999, which is a response to IE Group Program Manager's response to people bitching about IE and standards compliance.  I found this after building a Web Site in Visual Web Developer 2005 (a Micro$oft product) and having it look perfect in FireFox, only to bring it up in Internet Explorer and having some wierd shit happen.  An ASP:Panel changed border styles and text colors (white text was showing up as blue, even if I used '#FFFFFF' instead of 'White').
