MMmmmm Pi!

Happy Pi Day!

To celebrate Pi Day, we decided to make a couple pies. Not content with that level of celebration, I decided to throw a couple pieces of pie on the floor.

Not the way I’d recommend celebrating, and frankly a waste of otherwise delicious pie, but it got the job done.

On the plus side, one of the cats got to celebrate too, so I suppose it wasn’t a complete waste.

Dear UPS: We have a doorbell

I wrote this rant a few weeks ago, but since it happened again, I decided to post anyway, so here goes.

Dear UPS Driver,

Would it be so much to ask that you actually type my apartment number into the doorbell system at the front door?

Twice now I’ve had a UPS driver claim to drop by while I am at home sitting not more then 4′ from the phone where our condo doorbell system rings, and both times nadda all day, then I go look up the tracking number in the late afternoon and find a “customer not available” note. One of the perks of working from home is that I’m nearly always available to receive deliveries.

This time there was at least a sticker on the front door, last time there wasn’t even that.

Oddly enough both days I did have someone else call, last time I had a FedEx delivery the same day and today we ordered pizza, so I know my buzzer works for everyone but UPS.

Sincerely, The Dave.

Why you should never talk to the police

A couple of relatively informative videos that have been sitting in my queue to post for a few months, so here we go.

Two parts, watch the first one first, the second is basically just a cop agreeing with the entire first video 🙂
