Working Daze

I’ve just found this really cool comic strip at comics.com called Working Daze, it’s truly funny ๐Ÿ™‚

It’s mainly about life at work and all, and it really touches on some really funny issues from everyday work life, lol.
I’ve even seen or been through some of the situations the strip makes fun of, which makes it even funnier.

I’ll surely be checking this one out everyday from now on…

Man blows up car trying to defrost it

What the hell was this guy thinking ?

A Croatian man blew up his frozen car after trying to warm it by lighting a fire under the engine.

Zlatko Grden, 52, lit some old newspapers under the engine of his Opel Kadett after it failed to start in freezing temperatures.

He told local media: “I couldn’t start the engine and realised it was frozen. I decided to warm it up. Maybe I used too much paper.”

Grden, of Donja Stubica near the Croatian capital Zagreb, added: “My lovely car is now destroyed.”

Hmmmm…
Sure, your lovely car is now destroyed Mr. Oh-maybe-i-can-fire-it-up-a-bit !
That’s because you didn’t use your oh-what-do-we-have-here-maybe-it’s-a-brain !

Ok, i know that was not nice of me, and i know it must have been a very tragic event for the guy, but i just can’t help wondering what the guy was smoking or drinking before he did this…

Weblogs: A History and Perspective

I just came across this piece called Weblogs: A History and Perspective which, as it’s title suggests, talks about the history of weblogs and how the whole phenomenon started, how it developed and what it’s become.

The article is really interesting and worth reading.

I personally love blogging, and i would certainly love to see more and more people i know starting blogs of their own.

I feel that blogs really complement the web and put a more human touch to it by offering a wide collection of personal experiences and views.

Are You A Blogaholic?

I just took this little quiz called Are You A Blogaholic ?.

And well, my score was 64/100.

They say:
64 points is in the 51 through 80 percent
You are a dedicated weblogger. You post frequently because you enjoy weblogging a lot, yet you still manage to have a social life. You’re the best kind of weblogger. Way to go!
