Woo hoo! My Google AdSense advertising is actually paying off. For the month of April that had about 695 hits, I accumulated a whopping $1.08 in my AdSense account.
Yay, a round of waters is on me!

Self-licking Ice Cream Cone


Fireswamp denizen, Kazuo, explained to me what a “self-licking ice cream cone” was a few years back after he used it on me. I forget the subject we were discussing, but that was the first time I heard that phrase.
Brings back memories as some recent ventures appear to be self-licking ice cream [...]

Apple Going High Fashion?


There’s a rumor that supermodel, Gisele, has done a photo shoot for an upcoming Apple ad campaign. Not sure what she’ll be promoting. Maybe she’ll be sporting a new MacBook like Yao and his PowerBook a few years back.

Spoiling The Last Stand of the X-Men


I’m by no means a professional movie critic, and heck, I haven’t seen a flick in about a year (Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith was the last one I think). I got a chance to watch X-Men: The Last Stand on opening day and instead of writing a review, how [...]

New Club 939 Tees (and their Company Retreat)


Check out the new t-shirt design for Club 939. The new shirts are white unlike the original black tees.
Oh yeah, don’t bother heading to the club on Monday. They’re closed for business while employees are treated to a company retreat. Yep, you heard me. Fostering teamwork and cooperation is vital to [...]

Thursday Was a Hit!


Just a little more proof that blog searching sites like Technorati work. Yesterday, Pulpconnection received 142 hits, a record high. The main draw was the post about the Top Chef finale and most of the hits funneled through Technorati.
In a typical day, Pulpconnection gets about 30 hits. I made the Top Chef [...]

My On-Line Top Chef Poll Results


Just one last tidbit from the Top Chef finals. Here are the results from my unofficial, on-line poll of who will be Top Chef.
Even in this poll, Harold was the clear favorite. I started the poll before part one of the final competition so Dave Martin was a valid choice.
Thanks to everyone who [...]

Lost til Next Season


I’m only a fair-weather Lost follower but did watch the taped season finale (since Top Chef was ending). Some answers were finally provided but of course, more mysteries arose. Pushing that darn button every 108 minutes actually does something and isn’t just a psych experiment. If you don’t reset the timer, Magneto [...]
