********************
For you geeks with serious storage needs, ZipZoomFly has a pretty decent deal on 1 terabyte drives, only $159.99. I will be ordering 2 for work in a few minutes. These come with a 5-year warranty, lets just hope you don’t have to use it. I also read that by default they arrive with a jumper that limits you to a 1.5 Gbits per second transfer rate, but removing it will allow it to auto-negotiate to 3.0 Gbits per second. Cool beans!
ZipZoomFly (item # 10005936) - $159.99 + tax in CA
Here is the info on configuring the jumper:

July 24th, 2008Get Fined and Earn $20 Credit Towards a New Jawbone
Now with this new hands free law in full effect throughout California as of July 1st, everyone seems to be going hands free. Well now Aliph, the company that makes the Jawbone headset will credit you $20 towards a new headset purchase if you have been ticketed. Pretty smooth buzz marketing if you ask me!

July 24th, 2008My Woot Loot
My woot package actually arrived on Monday, but I have been so busy that I wasn’t able to take any pix of my booty. I didn’t receive anything super crazy, some other people received LCD’s, guitar sets, and Nokia N95’s. As usual it is well worth the $8 I spent and I would always opt to buy more in the future.
Summary of the goods:
1x Logitech Cordless Headset for Xbox
1x Red Tailed Hawk Porcelain Hinged Box (Birds of Prey Series)
1x Targus Digital Memory Card Case
1x Vector Rechargeable Hanging Arbor Lamp
22x Bags of Texas Air
July 23rd, 2008Mike Tyson’s Abandoned Mansion
Courtesy of Deadspin
Mike Tyson has fallen off the deep end running through $300 million+ in career earnings to actually being $27 million in debt. Mostly spending money on really stupid things, like the time he once spent $9,180 on 2 months of care for his white tiger. You read that right, A WHITE TIGER, you can’t make this stuff up. Well I stumbled upon a site that shows images of abandoned buildings and one happened to be Iron Mike’s Ohio mansion. In fact it was abandoned nearly 10 years ago and remains in a somewhat nice condition. The plants still look green and not too much vandalism. Check out the pictures yourself.
