I don’t know what this is, but I found Sam posted this great video on his blog, go check it out.
Also didn’t know that facebook had video capability, but I have unfortunately not been on there in so long that it’s no surprise that I don’t know. Hopefully I’ll be back on there before too long.

I’ve got this USB thermometer at work. My friend Phong came over and was messing with it, decided to hold it in his closed hand for a while. Then I decided to do the same thing. Check out the graph below. You can see that the ones in between when I hold it are the room temperature.
I was then talking with Phong about our hand temperature differences and my discontent with my cold hands, but he said that he thinks it’s good for a guy to have cold hands because it’s good for making sushi, lol.

In a discussion regarding variations of the America Southern accent with Sam, I found this website which quizzes you and tells what American accent you have. I don’t know how I got “Western”. I don’t think I changed the way I say anything since I moved from the east? How in the world can “stock” and “stalk” sound different??
Shout out to STL (Strizzle the Linguist), who will rejoice at question #14, and also enjoy question #16.
| Which American accent do you have?Western
Western is kind of neutral, but not quite since it’s still possible to tell where you`re from. So you might not actually be from the West (but you probably are). If you really want to sound “neutral,” learn how to say “stock” and “stalk” differently. |

The Washington Nationals have gone far higher up on my list of baseball teams I like. I just found out that they have President’s Races at the games, where mascot presidents race each other. The funny part is that it seems like Teddy Roosevelt is always in the lead at first but always somehow ends up losing! >:/ (He’s my favorite President for those of you who don’t know) Hahah, check out the Race Standings. They even had this campaign to let him win, with Teddy Roosevelt ‘08 signs! I LOVE IT!! I also love how their numbers are the number President that they were.
and a couple more vids below the fold…
