Just the other day I was talking to a friend and telling him how everytime I sign the receipt when I pay with visa, I use a different signature. Not deliberately but my signature is still “under construction” so I am always trying something new just to see if I can make a cool one. So today I was checking BoingBoing and I found this link to a site where a guy scanned his receipts to show us how every-time he signed, his signature would be completely different, he would scribbles, use heiroglyphics, draw grids, etc. So I think the next time I sign I will do the same thing. No one ever checks your signature so atleast we can have some fun… [Link]
Credit Card Signatures
I hate listening to non-geeks talk about geek stuff. They talk as if they are “in” with the technology but they are soooo nooott…

Cheap Fiber Connection
Was just reading a post about Verizon’s new fiber connection in the States. The price is incredibly cheap and the connection speed is insanely fast!
Here are the monthly prices:
5 Mbps down /2 Mbps up = $39
15 Mbps down /2 Mbps up = $49
30 Mbps down /5 Mbps up = $199
In comparison I am paying $110 per month with Qualitynet for a 512kb down / 256kb up connection.

Got Fines? Part II
The other day I posted a number (198) to call and find out if you had fines. Today Jackie posted a website that would also allow you to check for fines. I have no fines! 🙂 [Link]
My friend sent flowers to this girl he has a crush on in the UK. He placed the order online an hour ago and she just got them now. That is very fast service! He paid around KD20 for a nice small lilly vase plus a box of chocolates and delivery. [Link]

Our Sick Doggy
We called the vet today, turns out the reason why Chips our family dog is sick and losing weight is because he is old and not in good health. The vet is recommending we put him to sleep, and thats what we will probably end up doing. He has been in the family for over 8 years now. He isn’t perfect, no one outside our family seems to like him but thats because he doesn’t like them (he has psychological issues). I think the day before we put him to sleep I will set up an open buffet for him with all his favorite food. He will have an unlimited supply of cheese, french fries, burgers and chocolate.
I was suggesting after we put Chips to sleep that we get him stuffed. That way we can still have him in the house. My parents are totally against it though and they wouldn’t want it in their house. Nataly also doesnt want it in our apartment since she thinks the ghost of Chips will end up haunting our place.
Update: Just got back from the vet awhile ago. We put him to sleep…
Finally you can now get Darth Vader contact lenses! Or, if your tastes run to the Dark Side but not THAT Dark, you can get a pair of Sith contacts. I should have gotten these and worn them to the Star Wars premier.. [Link]
