My wife made this video. I thought it was hysterical, so I’m sharing it with you.

Whoops! Ads4Dough Bungles Payments!

I just received this email, and felt that I should pass this along. I actually found it amusing, considering that I have an account with Ads4Dough, but have not used them yet. Also, when a company makes a mistake like this, it’s somewhat comical. Unless you are one of the poor saps with the unsigned checks…

Wess,

We have mailed out the checks for the month of March.  As this was a record month on the amoutn of affiliates we paid out, we tried to rush the checks and get them out to everyone in a timely matter, but have realized there were a few checks that went out unsigned.  If your check is one of those.  Please mail them back to us at the address below and we will sign them and get them back to you asap.  I am very sorry for this inconvenience and we truely apologize if you were one of those affiliates who received an unsigned check.

Thank you,

Wow…that’s just bad for business. But hey, people make mistakes (apparently in spell-checking as well).

My Top Ten Reasons To Work From Home

I often sit around and wonder how I can make my life better. We all want to be our own boss and live like we own our place of business, but for those that work from their own home, it’s possible…and the DO own their place of business (with the exception of renters/moochers/underage entrepreneurs).

I thought that it would be a good idea to come up with a list of the best reasons I can think of to work from home. In no particular order, here they are.

1. You can spend all day not working - of course, this sort of defeats the purpose, but since you are your own boss, it’s not like you have to worry about getting fired.

2. You can finally take a vacation - and mow the lawn.

3. You have absolute control over your work schedule - with the exception of whatever your wife tells you to do.

4. You don’t have to sit in traffic - with the exception of the traffic jam your kid is creating with his Hot Wheels at the end of your desk, on the floor under your chair, on the stairs, in the dryer…

5. You don’t have to share the coffee pot - that’s right, a good buzz all for you. **Disclaimer - your spouse may re-arrange your work schedule if you take it too far, so be careful just to get that caffiene buzz in moderation…

6. No one will steal your stapler.

7. You don’t have to worry about being late. If you ever are late while working from home, you have failed. Miserably.

8. No memos. TPS covers? Screw ‘em! In fact, forget the whole TPS thing altogether.

9. You can take your firearms to work without being a police officer, or insane.

10. You can spend all day in a hypnotic trance

eBay Irony

I was looking through the eBay listings for people selling lead (yes, like the stuff that makes toys taste better), and I found this interesting (and revealing) bit of text:

IF YOU CAN’T READ. GET SOMEONE TO HELP YOU. U.S.A. SHIPPING ONLY YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE.. YOU COST ME $14.64 THANK YOU.

I just found this ironic. Perhaps the person who wrote this had been licking the pans in which the lead had been melted down.

(You can click the text to see the actual listing.)

Five Things You Cannot Do At Zombo.com

“You can do anything at zombocom…”

Yeah, right.

I wondered about this mesmerizing website, wondering if it was speaking the truth or was just some mind-bending ploy to waste my time on the internet.

I came up with this list of five things you cannot do at zombo.com.

  1. You can’t use the source code to floss with easily.
  2. You can’t get free money from zombo.com.
  3. You can’t marry zombo.com.
  4. You can’t wedge a door open with zombo.com.
  5. You can’t be the voice coming from zombo.com. Not even in a million years.

Yeah. I’m bored. Can you tell?
