Help for Your Mylar Unicorn Emergency

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

When I was six years old, I didn’t know what a website was.  In fact, as far as most of the citizens of Earth, I was not alone at that time.  If there were such a thing aside from governmental, classified existence, I would have probably wanted mine to be red.  I went through a red phase before I hit my blue phase.  In addition, I probably would have chosen a “sparkly unicorn theme.”  With my Lisa Frank mylar stickers in tow, I probably would be able to beautify it beyond belief.

I hated to break it to my five or six year old self, but you can’t put stickers on a website.  Now, you sort of can.  You can cheesify your website with My Little Pony looking unicorns and Lisa Frank looking sparkly doodads. Yes, the technical term is to cheesify.   Click here to learn more about it.

If you want to see Back to a Mac all glittery and unicorny, just click the widget:
Cornify

Each time you click, more and more cheese will be added. I think I may permanently add this to my sidebar for your entertainment, and mine. Until I get sick of it of course.  If you are deeply disturbed by this, blame for this should be fully shared by Roller Katy, who introduced me to this tooth rotting mayhem quite awhile ago in the first place.

hal-9000.jpgHal 9000, my surly PC computer, has found a new job. Hal was born surly, but he got much surlier when he was replace by a Mac. His job is to pick the winner of a contest over at TheSnackHound.com, of which he will randomly generate. The winner will receive a 16×20 poster print of a photo or graphic of their choosing. Whatever is rotating around your hard drive that you would like to see HUGE is fair game. The print will be provided by Uprinting.com

So, toddle on over and ENTER HERE, by leaving a comment. There is a bonus entry for you if you blog about it or write about it on your website with the apropriate links back. Read the post to find out. I am not eligible, as I also author THAT site, so that’s one less person in the running. The odds are pretty good!

Steve Jobs Introduces the IPeep

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

Steve Jobs recently introduced the IPeep in a variety of colors!

Of course, I am kidding, but it would have been delicious. The Peep diorama is a part of the 3rd annual Peep Show, put on by the Washington Post.  For the past three years, residents from all over the area have submitted dioramas featuring the fluffy seasonal confection from JustBorn.

The winner of the contest is shown HERE.
