McDonalds Drive-thru Gets a Microsoft BSOD!

May 20, 2010

I was going through a Microsoft drive-thru when I saw the dreaded Blue Screen of Death on the McDonalds computer screen. Not good. Check out the video:

Part of the message reads:

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO

BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO or BAD_FOR_YOUR_DIGESTIVE_SYSTEM?

Yeah, well, it may be bad for me, but I want my quarter pounder with fries and I want them now. This is fast food damn it, and I can't wait 10 minutes for the computer to reboot.

Debit Card Fraud - No Wonder They Get Away With It - Banks are Clueless!

March 16, 2010

I'm a busy guy, so sometimes I don't check my bank statement and debit purchases for a couple of months. Well, today I see a strange debit charge for $146.25 made on 1/12/2010 - over 2 months ago. Here's the strange part - the address for the debit charge was listed as "110 Richards Ave Norwalk, CT." "Boy," I thought to myself, "that address sure sounds familiar. I think it's the Trans-Lux building."

Sure enough, I Google the address and it's for the Trans-Lux building I used to work in several years ago - so I'm quite familiar with this building and its tenants.

Taylor Is Da Man - Wins 3 Vehicles & Prizes Worth $79,897 on The Price is Right

November 18, 2009

Taylor Randall is one lucky birthday dude. On his 19th birthday while playing The Price is Right, he won a scooter, Ford Mustang, a Dodge Challenger, and $26,000 in cash. Some of these prizes he won the hard way - like spinning the Price is Right wheel and hitting the number 100 twice in a row. What are the odds? Or how bout playing Lucky $EVEN and losing 5 of his 7 dollars guessing the first number but still winning the car. Taylor needs to hit the casinos while he's still hot - or each and every birthday until his birthday luck runs out.

You have to watch this video to believe it:

Halloween in VoIP Land

October 30, 2009

Fonality folks know how to work hard and play hard as they let off some steam for Halloween. Depicted here are the CEO (Chris Lyman) and Director of Engineering (Samy Kamkar) for Fonality. I'll let you guess who is who.

While we're on the topic of Halloween, here's a short video of my wearing a skeleton/Death costume with a chest piece that squirts blood when I squeeze the heart in my hand. Alas I didn't capture that in this video, but still worth a look:

If you are in the VoIP industry and have a cool Halloween costume to share, send me a picture and I'll try and post it.
