The Occasional Solipsist

My alternate title for this entry wasThe Best Laugh I've Had in a Long Time!

See, I got two new high tech toys last week, that when used in combination with each other pretty much put me in the best mood I can get into without my wife's help.

One, a wireless router, allows me to take my meetings out on the patio, in my bed, even on the can (haven't tried that one yet, but I'm so looking forward to it). So alone, this item is great. Thanks Lis.

The second is a new digital cable box that allows me to use all of that crap they've been plugging for months - pause live tv! and never miss another of your favourite shows again! spring to mind. The truth is that the only reason I got it was so that I could get to watch Techtv, or G4Techtv, or G4tv or whatever the fuck its called now. So I love this device too.

But the good mood maker happens when, just like dipping peanut butter into chocolate, I use the two together. Because now I get to watch 'Attack of the Show' (formerly The Screen Savers) and wirelessly check out all of the links they talk about on the show while its on.

Man, have I been jonesing for my Techtv.

So to my laugh: Tonight's episode of 'Attack of the Show' had a very funny website to check out called Spamusement, a collection of poorly-drawn cartoons inspired by actual spam subject lines. Great idea, and the spams that they make fun of are ones that everyone will recognize.

But the one that made me almost piss my pants and had Superwife laughing herself just cause I was howling so much was the one that played off the 'Amazing Software Types While You Talk!' spam. If you didn't get it the first time, go back up and read it again. If you can't read it go here.

Even now, I'm still laughing. Maybe you have to have a dog to really get it, but fuckme that's funny.
