Today is 07/07/07 and there are world wide concerts happening on each continent (and one online in Zwinky) to promote saving the Earth through easy to do things anyone and everyone should be doing to help.

Some tips are:

• Replace your light bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulbs that not only last longer but save energy.
• Reuse plastic shopping bags from the supermarket or better yet bring your own bags to the supermarket.
• Unplug chargers from the wall socket when you’re not charging anything.

Well, I’ve got my own tip that I’m quite proud of. I’ve been doing this ever since I owned an apartment and started paying the the water bill. This tip is so easy for anyone to do that I hope you do it today.

I mod my toilets. How? I simply fill up a 2 or 3 liter soda bottle with water and place it in the water tank in the back. That way I save 2 or 3 liters of water for each and every flush. That adds up quick! I also lower the water bulb so that the tank doesn’t fill up as much. If you can fit a 3 liter bottle in there, go for it, I recommend the largest bottle you can fit.

You’ll find that missing 2 or 3 liters has little or no impact on the toilets flushing ability. So what are you waiting for? Save the world, mod your toilet today!

Can you guess what this license plate means?

I can’t stop coming up with these. It’s just too much fun. It also just looks much better as an image…

I think I found my vanity license plate. What do you think?

I was inspired by this Legend of Zelda 2 screenshot:

It’s actually a funny side effect from a translation error (Errol in Japanese = Error).

The beautiful 2007 Mazda 3 Phantom Purple GT has arrived. Life is good. I’ve got a baby on the way, a fun work project, and a new car.

Now I’m considering a vanity license plate, but only if it is a good one. Do you have any suggestions?

Here’s the New York Custom Plate Lookup Tool.

After many long days of hard work at my company, we’ve developed Zwinktopia. You may have seen the commercials on TV. They have been shown on Saturday Night Live, Wedding Crashers, and a ton of other places.

Here is the ad, enjoy:

In Zwinktopia, you can do all sorts of things. There are games to play, people to chat with, fun environments to explore, clothing stores in the mall, and a mess load of other cool features. It’s a really exciting product with a huge potential. It will be fun to continue to develop new Zwinky features.

I am in the process of building a computer from parts bought on the internet. All I know is I need the highest numbered part of everything.

2x? Nah, there’s 4x!

1.86 Ghz? Nah, there’s 2.4 Ghz!

256 MB? Nah, there’s 512 MB!

What’s SLI? Who cares, I need it!

I try to build a dream PC while still staying realistic in price. Once I’m done, I’ll be sure to post the details for all to see. I’ve spent hours and hours researching what to get and hopefully someone else might want the same kick ass PC.

When I was really young, my favorite color was red. I think it’s because I had a lot of red clothes.

In middle school my favorite color turned to Green and it’s been that way until now. Green has shared a place in my heart alongside Red, but now I have a new favorite color.

Purple, I welcome you as my new favorite color. May we live a long and happy life together.

I promise I won’t leave you for colors like Green Pink.

I still need to do my taxes. I’m leaving it to the last minute because I hate doing my taxes.

The process is complicated at times and can really leave you scratching your head. I think the government should just total it all up and send me a check bill in the mail.

And if I think doing my taxes this year is hard, next year is going to be near impossible. I’m sure that forming an LLC sometime this year doesn’t make doing my taxes any easier. My first task acting as an LLC? Hire a tax consultant and then write it off as a business expense.

Life’s been changing recently for me. I’m getting a new car in April and I’m also having a baby near the end of July.

Now, I’ve found myself changing the way I drink my coffee. One morning we ran out of milk, and I tried using some heavy cream as a substitute. Yeah yeah yeah, I know, who cares? I do, and so should you. I had no idea how creamy and delicious coffee could be! If you’ve never tried it yourself, do me (and yourself) a favor and give it a shot. A shot of heavy cream that is.

Mmm, dairy products…
