Fixed

Sunday, February 27th, 2011

I am proud to report that after 2 1/2 years of living with a stove with only 3 working burners, I managed to fix the spark/lighter on the 4th burner so that they all work now.

Now, I can move on to fixing this very recent problem.

Actually, it seems I may still a have some work to do on the stove. It still sparks, but only when I’m not trying to light that burner. But it did work for a good couple of hours, most of which I spent watching Black Swan to prepare for the Oscars. On the plus side, we’re considering using the 3D printer at work to make a replacement piece of plastic for the dryer.

The picture says it all:

Yesterday, this hot picture showed up in my news feed, and I “liked it”. Today, and probably forever more, I now get to enjoy this clearly pandering ad. I know it’s your business model, and I would never have met her without Facebook, but it does suck more than a little.

Lost Valentines

Sunday, February 13th, 2011

There are a whole host of Lost and 24 valentines over at http://jennyology.blogspot.com/2010/01/tv-valentines.html. The 24 ones don’t do anything for me, but the Lost ones are great (mostly), especially the one copied above. Oh Lost.

In other TV news I’m using the 2 seasons of Better Off Ted to fill in while I decide what long term commitment to make.
