08:41:45 pm by edouin, Categories: Wierd Stuff, Funny Things, Health Related, Computer Stuff , Tags: boring, break, dash, movies, notify, pee, timings Now there is a way to get around this. Noooo, I'm not talking about bringing a bottle with you or some other pre-positioned device (that's just nasty!)
I'm talking about what every Geek probably already has, but YOU need, and if not you, then your friend, girlfriend or even mother! This website is call RunPee.com, and what these fine folks do is watch a movie, time when it gets boring and posts on their pretty nifty site when is the best time to go for a quick 4 to 8 minute dash to the washroom.
Afraid of missing anything? Don't. RunPee.com will also fill you in with what you missed, in about 1 or two paragraphs. The shorter the paragraphs, the more boring what you missed probably was. A nice touch is that they not only tell you the "approximate" time that you should go dash (It's not like they are carrying stopwatches and laptops or anything like that into the theatre), but they will also describe the scene immediately before you should start your dash, so that you know exactly when to get up to miss the least (and presumably the most boring parts).
RunPee.com is coming of age, with development of an iPhone app to endable users to upload and using a built-in timer-interface, alert you of these "dead-zones", now with vibration mode. I guess they are also working on a "live" version that you can check while in the movie theatre, and they are now working on the Android Phone App right now, and the BlackBerry version next.
Just my luck, I have a Palm, and that is a bit further down the list. Oh well, I guess I will just have to log on at home and upload the times into my smartphone the old fashioned way for now.
Finally, if you are really bored, watch the RunPee.com graphic at top left of the screen - it IS cute and fits extremely well with the "reason d'etre" of the site. Uh, keep yer eyes on the letter "n". Its worth watching.
I give this site 4 Gerbils! When the Palm app comes out, I may revisit my decision...

Business Technology Leadership.
Kool.
What does it mean?
Well, a lot of things, but the important thing here is that at CIO.com, there are a TON of links to their various online offerings to do with Business and Technology and how to manage both to effectively run a business and lead that business to success in the modern world.
A mouthful, eh? I just made that up because in the 2 hours of surfing all the various links within CIO.com, I am totally impressed with them. I even fired off an email asking permission to put their link here onto my Blog. Oh, and I stole an image from their website - an advertisement to one of their other pages LOL Here it is:
Actually, here is their Logo (with their link working I hope):
Judging from what I was able to garner in just a couple of hours, I would say that this website probably garners a lot of the IT industry's power brokers interest. What articles I did manage to peruse were well written and obviously of a caliber that is necessary for their target audience. I'm giving this site 5/5 Hammies (courtesy of FDI's Hammy the Hamster!)

We have like 38 Albums on Webshots - this is where we used to store our photos before I created my own Photo Albums on my own domain and server. I try to keep the WebShots albums up to date, but I think I still have like 4 or 5 Albums to transfer over to this website to keep everyone up to date.
Here is how I started my Webshots Albums - all because of Caesar.
Caesar was diagnosed with Feline Diabetes on 28 August, 2003. Since then we have had to adjust our lifestyle to help cope with this debilitating disorder. It's been over 5 years and Caesar is still holding on strong.

Welcome to PinkStuff.ca. My name is Christine and I am a Breast Cancer Survivor!
I started fundraising for the "Run for the Cure" in 2004, and now sell Breast Cancer related items in support of Breast Cancer Research. All profits go to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation either directly or through the Run for the Cure campaign.
I am only doing this part time and have a limited amount of items, however I can obtain items on special order if required. The types of items and quantities are constantly changing, so please bear with me if I am out of stock of a particular item. I encourage you to email if you have any questions - I would be most happy to assist you.
