Just a general update on the site

July 21st, 2008 | Category: site update

My computer at home went down on Saturday and hopefully I can get it back to working condition in the next week. Therefore, be prepared for fewer updates, although I will try to get some good info back on there!

Also, as a side social commentary, I have to praise the people who clean my office at work. What they do is one amazing feat! They manage to clean my trash, shut my door and lock it. That doesn’t sound very amazing at all, so here is the best part. 2/3 of that time they manage to set the trash can so that when I open the door it knocks over onto the floor! Tell me how they do that…I’m at a loss and utterly amazed both!

Chinese anti-terrorism is taking a scary turn…

…by using Segway’s as rapid deployment for their SWAT team.

Chinese SWAT Segway Team

So, it appears that during the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing later this year, the Chinese S.W.A.T team will be using Segways. I’ve always wanted to try one, and also make joking comments when I see them in the mall (like I did at Concord Mills yesterday), but I have to try and really bite my tongue so I don’t say anything about armed policeman chasing after me on one of those. And as a side note, why don’t they use bigger guns?
