Shoplift.com, when I first saw the name I was thinking it might be a fun site with lots of shoplifter videos, kind of like what we have here at Gator Byte. But nope, it turned out to be an online electronics store. Since I don’t really carry electronics anymore, I don’t mind sharing [...]

I’m not quite sure when I carved this pumpkin, but the date on the file is 1996 which I think is when I first had access to a scanner. I think the original picture had been taken a few years before that, so probably about 15 years ago. Since then I’ve only carved [...]

Yep, we’re still a little lacking when it comes to patio furniture, just using a few lawn chairs and a card table for now while we wait for something good to come on sale. I’d like to find some nice teak outdoor furniture, it matches the style and color of our deck and is [...]

Halloween isn’t even here yet but we’re already trying to come up with christmas gift ideas. We have several people who are hard to buy for because they already have everything they need and simply aren’t into gadgets and things. Chloe will be even harder to buy for this year since she has boxes [...]

There might be a lot of crap on the internet, but one thing that isn’t crap is Ask a Ninja. Tackling tough topics such as global warming, commas and movies all in a very funny manner. If you’ve got a question that you can’t find the answer to, send it to the [...]

I hear Mac computers are good and have relatively few problems especially when it comes to virus & spyware infections. Personally though, I don’t like them, the 1 button mouse and the fact that good mac games are hard to find pretty much killed my interest in them years ago. Things have changed [...]

When you come visiting Canada, leave yer guns home will ya? You won’t be needing them here and if they’re found, the fines are steep. I don’t know if it’s a common thing with religious leaders down there, but recently a Presbyterian Church leader coming across the ferry into Yarmouth was asked by customs if [...]

Gossip Girl is a new show this season on the CW network, the same network that brings you Smallville, Supernatural and many other good shows. I’m not much of a gossiper myself, but the wife is. Then again, aren’t all women? I know we had several former employees who just couldn’t shut [...]

It seems that some people have taken notice and created a Facebook group in order to spread the word of what is happening behind the scenes at Forest Street. Some people have questioned the source of the information and whether it’s real since they can’t find anything else about it online.
I’d like to state [...]
Targeted advertising

Even though online marketing is taking off in a big way, there’s still room out there for regular old snail mail advertising. If you’ve received any automotive direct mail in Houston, then you’ve seen the work of Market Doctors Marketing. They produce top quality advertising materials and see that they are sent directly [...]

Halloween is coming and since my father grows pumpkins, and has lots more than he can sell to his usual stores, he asked if I’d try selling some for him. Since summer is over and it’s time to put away the fans, I had some extra space in the front display window. They range in [...]

Getting the best armor, the biggest sword or the fastest flying mounts in World of Warcraft can take a long time to save up for. An epic flyer costs around 6000 gold, so even if you grind away and earn 100g a day it will still take 2 months. An alternative is to [...]

There’s finally some decent movies coming out again instead of just 1 or 2 little things that no one has heard of. This week we have Death Proof, the first half of the Grindhouse double feature by Quentin Tarantino starring Kurt Russel. Filmed to look like an old style action horror flick and yes, it’s [...]
